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 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.

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 ...

Echinococcus multilocularis in Illinois and Nebraska
The Journal of Parasitology, 1983Argentation-TLC showed that cholesterol was the only free sterol present in the ES products of 7to 21-day-old worms. Barrett et al. (1970, J. Parasitol. 56: 10041008) using GLC showed that cholesterol comprised 95% of the sterols, cholestane 2.5% and unidentified lipids the other 2.5% in E. revolutum adults.

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 ...

Free ceramides of Echinococcus multilocularis metacestodes
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1995Free ceramides were isolated and purified from the metacestodes of Echinococcus multilocularis. Two different fractions were obtained by preparative thin-layer chromatography. Their structure was determined by gas chromatography and electron impact mass spectrometry of trimethylsilylated derivatives.

Alveolar echinococcosis (Echinococcus multilocularis)
2011In this chapter three forms of echinococcosis in humans are described that are caused by a larval stage (metacestode) of Echinococcus multilocularis Leuckart, 1863, Echinococcus oligarthrus (Diesing, 1863) or Echinococcus vogeli Rausch and Bernstein, 1972. E. multilocularis is the causative agent of alveolar echinococcosis (AE).
