The Genome Project of Taenia solium [PDF]
We have constituted a consortium of key laboratories at the National Autonomous University of Mexico to carry out a genomic project for Taenia solium. This project will provide powerful resources for the study of taeniasis/cysticercosis, and, in conjunction with the Echinococcus granulosus and Echinococcus multilocularis genome project of expressed ...

Proteomic analysis of Taenia solium cysticercus and adult stages [PDF]
Taenia solium (T. solium) cysticercosis is a neglected parasitic zoonosis that occurs in developing countries. Since T. solium has a complex life cycle that includes eggs, oncospheres, cysticerci, and adults, presumably many proteins are produced that ...

Molecular Confirmation of Taenia solium Taeniasis in Child, Timor-Leste [PDF]
We report a case of Taenia solium taeniasis in a 10-year-old child in Timor-Leste, confirmed by molecular analysis, suggesting T. solium transmission to humans is occurring in Timor-Leste. Proactive measures are needed to improve public understanding of

Application of Ziehl Neelsen Staining Method for Taenia spp. Eggs Differentiation
Background: Three of Taenia species, named Taenia saginata, T. solium and T. asiatica can be found in Indonesia, but only T. solium can lead to neurocysticercosis. The morphology of those 3 Taenia spp.

Taenia solium taeniasis and cysticercosis: extinction or outbreak
Taenia solium taeniasis and cysticercosis are neglected zoonotic diseases that affect human health and economies of developing countries. In this work, we formulate and analyze deterministic and continuous time Markov chain (CTMC) stochastic models to ...

Taenia solium cysticercosis [PDF]
The larval stage of the pork tapeworm (Taenia solium) infects the human nervous system, causing neurocysticercosis. This disease is one of the main causes of epileptic seizures in many less developed countries and is also increasingly seen in more developed countries because of immigration from endemic areas.
