Trichinella species and genotypes

Research in Veterinary Science, 2020
Trichinella spiralis has historically been deemed "the pig parasite" owing to its initial classification within a monospecific genus. However, in recent years, the genus has expanded to include 10 distinct species and at least 3 different genotypes whose taxonomic status remains unstipulated. In contrast to T.

Immune responses to Trichinella pseudospiralis and Trichinella spiralis in mice

International Journal for Parasitology, 1985
Abstract Primary infections with Trichinella pseudospiralis and Trichinella spiralis were followed in rapid- (NIH) and slow- (B10G) responder strains of mice. Expulsion of T. pseudospiralis was slower in both strains, but markedly so only in slower responder B10G mice.

Hosts and habitats of Trichinella spiralis and Trichinella britovi in Europe

International Journal for Parasitology, 2009
Trichinella spiralis and Trichinella britovi are the two most common species of Trichinella circulating in Europe. Based on data provided to the International Trichinella Reference Centre over the past 20 years (data referring to 540 isolates of T. spiralis and 776 isolates of T.

Trichinella Infection in Travelers

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1991
To define the incidence of trichinosis associated with foreign travel and characterize the epidemiologic and clinical features of cases acquired abroad, all case report forms submitted to the Centers for Disease Control through state health departments and the National Morbidity Reporting System from 1975 to 1989 were reviewed.

Enzyme polymorphism in Trichinella

Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1982
The isoenzyme profiles of five isolates of the supposed 'species' of Trichinella, T. nativa, T. spiralis and T. nelsoni were compared. Four enzymes (AK, PGM, MPI and GPI) gave good resolution and clearly differentiated T. Spiralis from the other two species. T. nativa and T. nelsoni had similar isoenzyme patterns; the two separate isolates of T. nativa

Comparison of Human Trichinellosis Caused by Trichinella spiralis and by Trichinella britovi

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1993
The first documented report of an outbreak of human trichinellosis caused by Trichinella spiralis in Italy is described. Two family groups were involved. The source was wild boar meat products. The principal clinical features were fever (60%), myalgia (50%), and diarrhea (40%).

Systematics and Epidemiology of Trichinella

2006
In this review, we describe the current knowledge on the systematics, ecology and epidemiology of Trichinella and trichinellosis, and the impact of recent research discoveries on the understanding of this zoonosis. The epidemiology of this zoonosis has experienced important changes over the past two decades, especially with regard to the importance of ...

Muscle Fiber Selectivity of Trichinella spiralis and Trichinella pseudospiralis (1983)

The Journal of Parasitology, 1986
The biceps, semimembranosus, biceps femoris, and soleus muscles of female Rockland Wistar mice infected with either 1,000 Trichinella spiralis or 1,000 Trichinella pseudospiralis larvae were removed on days 12, 14, 16, and 18 post-infection (PI), sectioned and stained histochemically for their myosin ATPase activity.

Antigens of trichinella spiralis

Parasitology Today, 1997
Following infection with Trichinella spiralis, the host elicits a strong immune response that causes rapid expulsion of parasites, a reduction in reproductive capacity of the remaining parasites a reduction in the number of larvae recovered from host muscles, and impairment of the mobility of worms in the intestines.

Molecular variation in Trichinella

Acta Tropica, 1993
The taxonomic status of variants within the genus Trichinella is problematical. Some authors recognise no fewer than four species (Trichinella spiralis, T. pseudospiralis, T. nativa and T. nelsoni), others regard T. nativa and T. nelsoni as strains of T. spiralis (T. spiralis var nativa or sylvatica), while others consider the genus to be monospecific,
