Is Opisthorchis viverrini Emerging in Cambodia?

2019
Opisthorchis viverrini infection is widely prevalent in Southeast Asia. In Cambodia information on this helminth infection is scare. Recent reports suggest that O. viverrini is an emerging public health problem. We aimed to synthesize all information in relation to the infection, epidemiology, and morbidity of O.

Clinical Manifestations of Opisthorchis Viverrini Infections in Thailand

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1966
Summary Clinical and biochemical findings on 921 persons harboring Opisthorchis viverrini were compared with similar data from 191 persons free of infection, all examinees being from northeastern Thailand. Edema, anemia, diarrhea, dysentery, nausea, flatulence, malaise, anorexia and hepatomegaly were found no more frequently in the infected than in the

Monoclonal antibodies against Opisthorchis viverrini antigens

Parasite Immunology, 1990
Summary Monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) were produced against somatic antigens of adult human liver fluke Opisthorchis viverrini. Earlier studies attached diagnostic potential to an 89–90 kD antigen present in both somatic extracts and in vitro culture supernatants as well as to the abundant 16–17 kD tegumental protein doublet.

Unusual protein pattern ofOpisthorchis viverrini

Journal of Helminthology, 1985
ABSTRACTThe proteins of homogenized adultOpisthorchis viverriniwere separated by polyacrylamide gel electro-Phoresis and isoelectric focusing in the presence of detergents. By far the most abundant component(s) had a Mr of 18,000 to 19,000, represented about 47% of the total parasite protein, and did not separate in isotypes.

Is Opisthorchis viverrini an avian liver fluke?

Journal of Helminthology, 2013
AbstractRecently, in the Journal of Helminthology (May 2013), Dao et al. reported that Opisthorchis viverrini-like flukes were found in the bile duct of domestic ducks in Vietnam. They stated that this is the first record of Opisthorchis sp. in birds in Vietnam. However, three Opisthorchis species – O. cheelis, O. longissimus and O.

Immunology and molecular biology of Opisthorchis viverrini infection

Acta Tropica, 2003
Opisthorchiasis is the major public health problems in Laos PDR and Thailand. The disease becomes chronic and persists for many years, leading to hepatobiliary disease and cholangiocarcinoma. Less severe manifestations include cholangitis, chronic cholecystitis and cholelithiasis.

Opisthorchis viverrini Proteome and Host–Parasite Interactions

2018
The omics technologies have improved our understanding of the molecular events that underpin host-parasite interactions and the pathogenesis of parasitic diseases. In the last decade, proteomics and genomics in particular have been used to characterize the surface and secreted products of the carcinogenic liver fluke Opisthorchis viverrini and revealed

Comparison of gene expression profiles between Opisthorchis viverrini and non‐Opisthorchis viverrini associated human intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma†

Hepatology, 2006
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is the second most common primary cancer in the liver, and its incidence is highest in the northeastern part of Thailand. ICCs in this region are known to be associated with infection with liver flukes, particularly Opisthorchis viverrini (OV), as well as nitrosamines from food.

Treatment of Opisthorchis viverrini with mebendazole.

The Southeast Asian journal of tropical medicine and public health, 1982
Thirty-six hospitalized Thais (21 males, 15 females, 9 to 63 years of age) with Opisthorchis viverrini infection were treated with mebendazole in dosages of 20 mg/kg body weight for 4 weeks and 30 mg/kg body weight for 3 or 4 weeks. The drug was found to be effective when given in dosages of 30 mg/kg body weight for 3 to 4 weeks only a few eggs being ...
