Echinococcus granulosus in Finland

Veterinary Parasitology, 2003
Echinococcus granulosus is shown to occur in eastern Finland in a sylvatic cycle involving wolves (Canis lupus) as the definitive host and reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) and probably also elk (Alces alces) and the wild forest reindeer (Rangifer tarandus fennicus) as intermediate hosts. Even though the prevalence of E.

Identification of Echinococcus granulosus eggs

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2002
The eggs from Echinococcus granulosus contaminate the environment spreading out the disease among the herbivorous. The differential diagnosis of the embriophores recovered from the soil is very difficult by morphologic and immunologic methods. In this paper we evaluate the EgO/DNA-IM1 for identification of E.

Echinococcus granulosus genotypes in Iran.

Gastroenterology and hepatology from bed to bench, 2014
Hydatidosis, caused by Echinococcus granulosus is one of the most important zoonotic diseases, throughout most parts of the world. Hydatidosis is endemic in Iran and responsible for approximately 1% of admission to surgical wards. There are extensive genetic variations within E.

Echinococcus granulosus: Ultrastructure of microtriches

Experimental Parasitology, 1969
Abstract The tegumental microtriches of Echinococcus granulosus are covered by a plasma membrane with two electron-dense layers each 40–55 A thick and 40–60 A apart. It is different from most plasma membranes in showing a “sieve-like” structure, forming a surface “mosaic” with a roughly hexagonal pattern presumably related to the assimilatory ...

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.

Detection of Echinococcus granulosus and Echinococcus ortleppi in Bhutan

Parasitology International, 2017
In this pilot study, fecal samples were collected from community dogs around slaughterhouses and from the city of Thimphu (n=138) as well as from carnivores in the forest area around a farm in Bhutan (n=28). Samples were analyzed microscopically for the presence of taeniid eggs by the floatation and sieving method.

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

Immunomodulatory mechanisms during Echinococcus granulosus infection

Experimental Parasitology, 2008
The pathologic events that ensue after humans ingest the eggs of Echinococcus granulosus and continue while cystic echinococcosis develops, provide an excellent example illustrating the evasive strategies helminth parasites use to develop, progress and cause chronic disease.

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.
