Resistance of dogs to Echinococcus granulosus

International Journal for Parasitology, 1977
Abstract Further studies on the immunization of dogs against E. granulosus indicated that certain dogs have a natural resistance, which is not mediated by specific antibodies or sensitized lymphocytes to tapeworm secretory antigens. In a pilot experiment with two pups, E.

The early stages of Echinococcus granulosus development

Acta Tropica, 1997
The paper points out the essential aspects of host/parasite relationship during the development of oncospheres (ONC) of Echinococcus granulosus into an early cyst. Secretions of the penetration glands in the hatched ONC causes lysis of host tissue during penetration of the activated ONC.

Echinococcus granulosus in Dogs in Bangladesh

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1980
SUMMARY A survey was carried out during the period February 1975 to January 1978 to find the frequency of Echinococcus granulosus in dogs. A total of 611 dogs originating from different places of the country were examined. The frequency of infection varied considerably, the highest (75.79%) being recorded in dogs in and around the slaughterhouses.

Resistance to Echinococcus granulosus Infection in Lambs

The Journal of Parasitology, 1981
A high level of resistance of oral infection with Echinococcus granulosus eggs was stimulated in lambs by two or more subcutaneous injections of oncospheres given 14 days apart. The degree of resistance was significantly higher than that resulting from a single injection.

Development and morphological variability of Echinococcus granulosus

Parasitology Research, 1998
Characteristics are presented of Echinococcus granulosus strobila from dogs experimentally infected with protoscolices from a single cyst isolated from the liver of a domestic pig in a central Slovakian district. Adult cestodes are characterized mainly by 28-32 hooks highly variable in shape and size; 26-51 testes situated mostly throughout the ...

Lipids ofEchinococcus granulosus protoscolices

Lipids, 1972
AbstractThe fatty acid composition of the triglyceride and the total phospholipid fractions of ovine liverEchinococcus granulosus protoscolices was determined by gas chromatography and compared with that of the healthy and Echinococcus infected livers.

Genetic typing of Echinococcus granulosus in Romania

Parasitology Research, 2005
In Romania, cystic echinococcosis is endemic and affects, besides humans, various animal species including sheep, cattle, and swine. As yet, no molecular-genetic typing has been carried out to clearly identify the putative strains being transmitted there.

How Echinococcus granulosus Deals with Complement

Parasitology Today, 2000
Here, Ana Mar a Ferreira and colleagues discuss the interplay between the larval stages of Echinococcus granulosus and an important effector arm of immunity: the host complement system. During early infection, the parasite activates complement, and hence complement-dependent inflammatory responses. However, on differentiation into the hydatid cyst, the

[Surgical therapy of Echinococcus granulosus (cysticus)].

Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2000
Hydatid disease, still frequent in endemic areas, is usually localized in the liver. Despite the benign nature of the disease it is one of the problematic fields of surgery due to the high complication rate and long hospital stay. Based on our experience we recommend evacuation of the cyst and omentoplasty as the surgical method of choice, as it is ...

Echinococcus granulosus in animals in northern India

Veterinary Parasitology, 1988
The prevalence of larval Echinococcus granulosus in buffaloes, sheep and goats and in adult stray and shepherd dogs was studied in northern India. A total of 48.1% of 754 buffaloes, 30.5% of 1215 sheep and 21.0% of 447 goats were found to be infected with this parasite.
