Mast Cell Response to Cestode Infection
SummaryMast cells have been found in the cyst wall of a larval cestode parasite (Hydatigena taeniaeformis). The mast cells were present in the outer 2 layers of the cyst wall. This indicates that the entire cyst wall is of host-inflammatory origin and not derived from parasite tissue nor solely from modified host-liver cells.

Evaluating relationships between host body condition indices (BCIs) and parasite infections is a common approach for assessing the negative effects of parasites on host health. Researchers generally expect negative correlations between BCIs and infection levels; however, empirical results are often highly variable among host–parasite systems.

Artemia franciscana invasion causes rapid and dramatic ecological changes in hypersaline ecosystems [PDF]
Aquatic ecosystems are characterised by strong trophic links, which can be profoundly altered by the loss or introduction of species. Invasive species that displace key native species may indirectly affect entire communities and ecosystem functioning ...

To avoid or eliminate: cestode infections in copepods
The outcome of a parasite infection is the result of the interaction between the host and the parasite. In the system we studied, there are 3 critical stages for the outcome of infection of the (intermediate) host, the copepod Macrocyclops albidus, with the cestode Schistocephalus solidus.
