The Genome Project of Taenia solium [PDF]

open access: goldInternational Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2008
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]

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
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]

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases
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

open access: yesIranian Journal of Parasitology, 2022
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

open access: yesAnimal Diseases, 2023
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 ...

Diagnosis of Taenia solium infections based on "mail order" RNA-sequencing of single tapeworm egg isolates from stool samples.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2021
Combined community health programs aiming at health education, preventive anti-parasitic chemotherapy, and vaccination of pigs have proven their potential to regionally reduce and even eliminate Taenia solium infections that are associated with a high ...

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.
