Echinococcus multilocularis Revisited
American Journal of Roentgenology, 2001chinococcosis is a parasitic infection of humans caused by the larval stage of the tapeworm Echinococcus . Of the two main forms of the infection, the unilocular cystic form caused by E. granulosus is far more common than the rare multilocular alveolar form caused by E. multilocularis [1]. E.

Echinococcus multilocularis in north Italy.
Parassitologia, 2006Alveolar echinococcosis is a zoonotic infection caused by the metacestode of the tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. Fox populations living in the Alpine regions of Italy had been considered free from this parasite until 2002, when two infected foxes were detected in Bolzano province (Trentino Alto Adige region) near Austrian border.

Gangliosides of Echinococcus multilocularis metacestodes
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 1994Gangliosides, glycosphingolipids with sialic acid, were found in metacestodes of Echinococcus multilocularis in low quantities. All gangliosides were resolved after preparative high-performance thin layer chromatography into four fractions. Cholera toxin was specifically bound to the major ganglioside, allowing the identification of it as a GM1 ...

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2003
Echinococcus multilocularis is a tapeworm of foxes that may cause a zoonotic infection resulting in a highly pathogenic and potentially fatal chronic liver infestation called human alveolar echinococcosis. Radical liver resection currently offers the only potential cure. Although alveolar echinococcosis is a rare parasitic disease that is restricted to

Glycosphingolipids of Echinococcus multilocularis metacestodes
Molecular and Biochemical Parasitology, 1990Neutral and acid glycosphingolipids of Echinococcus multilocularis metacestodes that were obtained after intraperitoneal infection of Meriones unguiculatus have been analyzed by thin layer chromatography. Neutral and acid glycosphingolipids accounted for 95% and 5% of total glycosphingolipids, respectively.

The impact of globalisation on the distribution of Echinococcus multilocularis
Trends in Parasitology, 2012In the past three decades, Echinococcus multilocularis, the cause of human alveolar echinococcosis, has been reported in several new countries both in definitive hosts (canids) as well as in people. Unless treated, infection with this cestode in people is fatal.

Echinococcus multilocularis: The parasite–host interplay
Experimental Parasitology, 2008Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a severe chronic helminthic disease caused by the intrahepatic tumor-like growth of the metacestode of Echinococcus multilocularis. Metacestodes are fluid-filled, asexually proliferating vesicles, which are entirely covered by the laminated layer, an acellular carbohydrate-rich surface structure that protects the ...

First detection of Echinococcus multilocularis in Croatia
Parasitology Research, 2017Echinococcus multilocularis has been spreading through Europe but has not yet been reported in Croatia. We report the results of a surveillance programme to detect E. multilocularis in red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) in different parts of Croatia. PCR-based screening of faecal samples from 238 red foxes in 2015 and 150 in 2016 indicate prevalences of 7.5% in
