Genomic identification of Anisakis simplex isolates

Journal of Helminthology, 1997
AbstractRAPD technique was used to differentiate individuals of Anisakis simplex obtained from Merluccius merluccius, Phycis blennoides, Conger conger and Lepidorhombus boscii, from the North Atlantic Ocean. The amplification patterns of the host DNA controls were markedly different from those obtained for the parasitic material.

Anisakis simplex and Pseudoterranova decipiens

2003
I. BACKGROUND The consumption of raw or undercooked fish may lead to infection with any of several helminths, the most important being species of the cestode genus Diphyllobothrium, the digenean families Heterophyidae (Heterophyes spp. and Metagonimus yokogawai) and Opisthorchiidae (Clonorchis sinensis and Opisthorchis spp.), and the nematode ...

Allergic Reactions to Anisakis simplex Parasitizing Seafood

Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology, 1997
The ingestion of Anisakidae ssp larvae parasitized fish can cause anisakiasis. Allergic reactions after ingestion of safely cooked but parasitized fish have been reported.Twenty-three patients who suffered allergic reactions after seafood ingestion, with negative skin tests were studied.

Characterization of allergens of Anisakis simplex

Allergy, 2003
Background:  Anisakis simplex is an intestinal parasite of sea mammals. The larvae infect crustaceans, cephalopods and fish. Humans may consume A. simplex third stage larvae (L3) when eating infected raw or under‐cooked fish. Consumed larvae cause an inflammatory reaction when they penetrate the digestive mucosa.

Anisakis simplex and Anisakis physeteris: Physicochemical properties of larval and adult hemoglobins

Experimental Parasitology, 1979
Abstract To resolve the taxonomic relationship between two types of parasitic nematode larvae (Type I and II) and two species of parasitic nematode adults (Anisakis simplex and A. physeteris) of the aquatic ascarid genus Anisakis, collected in Japanese coastal water, a comparison was made of their hemoglobins' physicochemical properties.

Anisakis simplex: current knowledge.

European annals of allergy and clinical immunology, 2012
Anisakiasis, firstly described in 1960s in the Netherlands, is a fish-borne parasitic disease caused by the consumption of raw or undercooked fish or cephalopods contaminated by third stage (13) larvae of the Anisakidae family, in particular Anisakis simplex (As), A. pegreffii and Pseudoterranova decipiens.

[Allergy to Anisakis simplex].

Allergie et immunologie, 2002
Anisakis simplex is a nematode which infects marine fish. It requires marine mammals for its development. The larvae are found in fishes, crustaceans and cephalopods which are intermediate hosts. The parasite can be ingested by man -mainly with raw fishes- and induces an infestation called anisakiasis or anisakidosis with digestive tract symptoms ...

Anisakis Simplex and Related Nematodes

2009
This disease involves the penetration of the wall of the gastrointestinal tract by the larvae of Anisakis simplex or related species. Anisakis simplex is the most well known of these worms; related species that infect humans include Pseudoterranova (Phocanema) decipiens, Anasakis type II, and Contracaecum species. A. simplex and P.

[Human diseases caused by Anisakis simplex].

Revue medicale suisse, 2022
Anisakis simplex is a parasitic worm. It infects marine mammals that feed on fish and cephalopods, its intermediary hosts. Human disease is caused by accidental ingestion of Anisakis larvae. Upon consumption of contaminated fish, cuttlefish or squid, human may develop two distinct clinical pictures: Anisakiasis is provoked by living larvae penetrating ...

Is Anisakis simplex responsible for chronic urticaria?

Allergy and asthma proceedings, 2003
The association of chronic urticaria (CU) to parasitic infestations has been poorly studied. Recently, sensitization to the parasite larva Anisakis simplex has been described as the cause of acute urticaria and anaphylaxis. The aim of this work was to study the relationship between sensitization to A. simplex and CU.
