Human Angiostrongylus cantonensis: an update
European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 2011Angiostrongylus cantonensis was first discovered in 1935 and has become an important emerging pathogen causing human angiostrongyliasis. Major outbreaks of human angiostrongyliasis have been reported in endemic regions. Thousands of cases of human angiostrongyliasis have been documented worldwide. A.

Carbohydrate Metabolism in Angiostrongylus cantonensis
The Journal of Parasitology, 1965Female Angiostrongylus cantonensis consumed more glucose than males; they also contained more glycogen and total carbohydrates. The rates of glucose absorption were not significantly different whether or not the medium was supplemented with 10% serum or whether or not the atmosphere contained 5% CO2. Strong inhibition of glucose absorption was achieved

Angiostrongylus cantonensis: Characterization of Thymidylate Synthetase
Experimental Parasitology, 1994Thymidylate synthetase (TS) is the only enzyme that catalyzes the formation of thymidine nucleotides in Angiostrongylus cantonensis. A fraction enriched in TS was obtained from the gravid nematode by gel filtration and affinity chromatography using methotrexate-agarose. TS, which was well separated from dihydrofolate reductase, has a relative molecular

Angiostrongylus cantonensis in China
2013Angiostrongylus cantonensis was first discovered in 1934 by Professor Chen Xintao and has become an important emerging pathogen causing human angiostrongyliasis. Rats are permissive host, and mice and human are non-permissive host. The adult worms live in the right ventricle and pulmonary arteries of rats. However, worms can’t develop to adult worm and

Lung CT findings of angiostrongyliasis cantonensis caused by Angiostrongylus cantonensis
Clinical Imaging, 2011Angiostrongyliasis cantonensis is a parasitic disease caused by human infection with Angiostrongylus cantonensis. Fifteen cases were enrolled in our study. Chest CT scanning was performed with MSCT in all cases. The chest CT images demonstrated that pulmonary nodular lesions and ground-glass opacity lesions located in the subpleural area are the ...

The spliced leader gene of Angiostrongylus cantonensis
Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 1991A 5' leader sequence has been identified on mRNAs of the parasitic nematode Angiostrongylus cantonensis. A 720-bp XhoI restriction fragment containing the gene encoding the leader sequence has been cloned and sequenced. It contains a 22-nt sequence identical to that of the leader sequence of Caenorhabditis elegans, a consensus splice site and a ...

First Record of Angiostrongylus cantonensis in Cuba
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1981The occurrence of human eosinophilic meningoencephalitis in several localities of Havana, Cuba, prompted a search for the rat lungworm, Angiostrongylus cantonensis, in the same localities. Twenty rats (Rattus norvegicus) and about 370 terrestrial mollusks (70 slugs, Veronicella cubensis, and about 300 snails, mostly Bradybaena similaris) were collected
