Understanding the pathogenic mechanisms and therapeutic effects in neurocysticercosis

open access: yesBrain Pathology, Volume 34, Issue 5, September 2024.
Grey and white matter pathological differences in neurocysticercosis. Grey matter showing severe spongy change (arrows), inflammatory infiltrate (arrowhead), and abundant axonal spheroids (arrows), while white matter showing slight spongy change (arrow), inflammatory infiltrate (arrowhead), and small varicosities (arrows).

First molecular identification of Haemonchus contortus (Nematoda: Trichostrongylidae), a blood‐sucking gastric nematode of artiodactyles, in the ground beetle Carabus granulatus (Coleoptera: Carabidae)

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 361-365, September 2024.
Twenty‐six individuals of Carabus granulatus were screened for the presence of the DNA of pathogenic gastrointestinal nematodes of ruminants inhabiting the Białowieża Primeval Forest. In six insects, the presence of the DNA of blood‐sucking abomasal nematode, Haemonchus contortus was detected.

Taeniasis among Refugees Living on Thailand–Myanmar Border, 2012

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2015
We tested refugee camp residents on the Thailand–Myanmar border for Taenia solium infection. Taeniasis prevalence was consistent with that for other disease-endemic regions, but seropositivity indicating T. solium taeniasis was rare.

Minimal purification method enables developability assessment of recombinant proteins

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 121, Issue 8, Page 2423-2434, August 2024.
Abstract Analytical characterization of proteins is a critical task for developing therapeutics and subunit vaccine candidates. Assessing candidates with a battery of biophysical assays can inform the selection of one that exhibits properties consistent with a given target product profile (TPP).

Genetic diversity and haplotypes of Cysticercus tenuicollis isolates from slaughtered sheep and goats in Elazig and Bingol provinces of Turkey

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 4, July 2024.
Cysticercus tenuicollis isolates were collected. gDNA of the cyst materials was obtained using the kit protocol. The results of the PCR analysis revealed a band of 866 bp for all samples. All sequences were determined to be T. hydatigena by BLAST analysis.

Control of Taenia solium Cysticercosis/Taeniosis

open access: yes, 2006
Cysticercosis is emerging as a serious public health and agricultural problem in many poorer countries of Latin America, Africa, and Asia. Caused by the pork tapeworm, Taenia solium, this zoonotic disease forms larval cysts in humans and pigs that can lead to epilepsy and death in humans, reduces the market value of pigs and makes pork unsafe to eat ...

Prolactin in the Cestodes, Taenia solium and Taenia hydatigena

open access: yesOkajimas Folia Anatomica Japonica, 1996
The demonstration of prolactin in cestodes, Taenia solium and Taenia hydatigena, was investigated by using immunocytochemical method. PRL immunoreactivity was widely distributed in the CNS and PNS in the worms. In the scolex PRL-IR perikarya occurred in the cerebral ganglia, around the basic area of the sucker and the rostral border region between the ...

Solitary Brain Mass in a Patient with Seizures: An Unexpected Infectious Etiology

open access: yesDiseases, 2018
Neurocysticercosis is a parasitosis caused by the larval stage of the pork tapeworm Taenia solium. The diagnosis is challenging as morphology on neuroimaging can be inconclusive and serology is frequently negative.

State of the Art of Taenia solium as Compared to Taenia asiatica

open access: yesThe Korean Journal of Parasitology, 2013
Three species of tapeworms infect humans in their adult stage (Taenia solium, Taenia saginata and Taenia asiatica). The 3 are flat, opaque white or yellowish, and exceptional long segmented parasites, measuring 1 to 12 m in their adult stage. In this review, the development of the knowledge regarding the first species, mainly focused on understanding ...
