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.

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 ...

Echinococcus granulosus in the wolf in Italy.

Parassitologia, 2004
During the period 1987-1999, 119 wolf cadavers were examined and checked for the presence of Echinococcus granulosus. All the animals were retrieved along the whole Apennines range of distribution of the species in Italy and most of them were illegally killed. Eighteen wolves resulted positive (15%). The mean intensity was 697.5. The force of infection

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

CT Findings in Hepatic Involvement by Echinococcus granulosus

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1984
The CT findings in hepatic involvement by Echinococcus granulosus are described. Pathognomonic signs of the hydatid nature of a cystic lesion are visualization of the cystic wall on plain CT, calcification of the cyst wall, daughter cysts, and membrane detachment.

Aspects of speciation in Echinococcus granulosus

Veterinary Parasitology, 1978
Studies on the speciation of Echinococcus granulosus in Great Britain have demonstrated the value of considering epidemiological, developmental and biochemical criteria. The significance of these criteria beyond pure taxonomic considerations is stressed, and the particular potential of isoelectric focusing in such studies is emphasized.
