Abstract:

Most parasites from known host species are yet to be discovered and described, let alone those from host species not yet known to science. Here, we use tapeworms of elasmobranchs to identify factors influencing their discovery and explaining the time lag between the descriptions of elasmobranch hosts and their respective tapeworm parasites. The dataset included 918 tapeworm species from 290 elasmobranch species. Data were analysed using linear mixed-effects models. Our findings indicated that we are currently in the midst of the greatest rate of discovery for tapeworms exploiting elasmobranchs

Abstract:

Intestinal myoelectric patterns in rats are altered after chronic luminal infection with the tapeworm Hymenolepis diminuta. This study evaluates whether these altered patterns were associated with changes in intestinal fluid transit and endogenous enteric microbe levels. Luminal transit, measured throughout the small intestine during the interdigestive state, was significantly decreased during tapeworm infection. Reduced transit was regional, occurring in the same location as that of the tapeworm and maximal myoelectric alterations. In other experimental systems, aerobic and anaerobic bacteria

After conducting research and analyzing literature data, it was discovered that Iraq is home to tapeworms belonging to four distinct families, namely Davaineidae, Hymenolepididae, Dilepididae, and Anoplocephalidae. Within these families, several species of tapeworm have been identified in Iraq, including Cotugnia intermedia, Raillietina tetragona, Raillietina cesticillus, Raillietina echinobothrida, Aporina delafondi, and Davainea proglottina.

Abstract:

The human intestine is home to parasites called tapeworms. The term "tapeworm infection" describes this ailment. A larval cyst is the term for the young, dormant tapeworm. It is not limited to the intestine; it can also reside in other body areas. This illness is called cysticercosis or larval cyst infection. The symptoms of intestinal tapeworms are typically modest. Moderate to severe symptoms include diarrhea and stomach pain. Larval cysts can cause serious illness if they form in the brain, liver, lungs, heart, or eyes. Tapeworm infections can be treated with anti-parasitic medications, and

Parasitic foodborne infections of humans may involve both protozoan and helminth species of internal parasites. The route of infection is normally consumption of the parasite’s natural hosts as a human food item. Taeniasis is a parasitic zoonotic disease caused by the adult stage of large tapeworms that live in the intestines of human hosts. Bovine cysticercosis is a food borne disease caused by Taenia saginata with humans as the final host and cattle as the intermediate host. Infection of human by Taenia saginata occurs through ingestion of raw or undercooked meat containing Cysticercus Bovis

In the case of Maria Callas, it has been confirmed by her biography and personal communications that she was diagnosed with a beef tapeworm due to eating uncooked meat.

Abstract:

Human neurocysticercosis byTaenia soliumis considered an emergent severe brain disorder in developing and developed countries. Discovery of new antiparasitic drugs has been recently aimed to restrain differentiation and establishment of theT. soliumadult tapeworm, for being considered a central node in the disease propagation to both pigs and humans. Tamoxifen is an antiestrogenic drug with cysticidal action onTaenia crassiceps, a close relative ofT. solium. Thus, we evaluated the effect of tamoxifen on thein vitroevagination and thein vivoestablishment ofT. solium.In vitro, tamoxifen inhibite

Abstract:

Hymenolepis ackerti n. sp., parasite of rodents from the tallgrass prairie ecoregion of North America is herein characterized. This tapeworm occurs in 3 species of rodents including the hispid cotton rat Sigmodon hispidus, the eastern woodrat Neotoma floridana, and the prairie vole Microtus ochrogaster. A comparison against the other 10 congeneric species known from North America reveals that this species is different based on the size of the scolex, length of rostellar capsule, testicular arrangement, and the size of cirrus sac, seminal receptacle and eggs.

AbstractThe Asian fish tapeworm,Schyzocotyle acheilognathi(syn.Bothriocephalus acheilognathi) represents a threat to freshwater fish, mainly cyprinids, across the globe. This tapeworm possesses an extraordinary ability to adapt to different environmental conditions and, because of that, from its natural geographical origin in mainland Asia, it has colonized every continent except Antarctica. It is thought that this pathogenic tapeworm was first co-introduced into Mexico in 1965 from China, with the grass carpCtenopharyngodon idella, although the first formal record of its presence was publishe

Abstract:

The rat tapeworm Hymenolepis diminuta is a parasite of the small intestine of rodents (mainly mice and rats), and accidentally humans. It is classified as a non-invasive tapeworm due to the lack of hooks on the tapeworm’s scolex, which could cause mechanical damage to host tissues. However, many studies have shown that metabolites secreted by H. diminuta interfere with the functioning of the host’s gastrointestinal tract, causing an increase in salivary secretion, suppression of gastric acid secretion, and an increase in the trypsin activity in the duodenum chyme.

AbstractThe aim of this study was to evaluate changes in the enzymatic antioxidant system in rat small intestine caused by invasion of tapeworms Hymenolepis diminuta. The study material consisted of samples of the rats small intestine after short- (1.5-months) and long-term (1.5-years) larvae invasion of tapeworm H. diminuta. In tissue extracts the concentration of oxidative stress markers (GSH and TBARS) and activity of antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT, total GSHPx, SeGSHPx, GST and GSHR) were determined. Changes demonstrated for GSH and TBARS level and the activity of antioxidant enzymes in the

Abstract:

Recent studies on geographic distribution of Echinococcus multilocularis in Europe show that it has a wider range than previously thought. It is unclear, however, if the wider distribution is due to its recent spreading or to a lack of previous data from the new areas. Italy, previously considered E. multilocularis-free, is now part of these new areas: infected foxes (the main definitive host of the tapeworm) have been observed in a Northern Alpine territory. Thus, more surveys need to be done in other Italian regions in order to monitor the spreading of E. multilocularis. The aim of the prese

Abstract:

Protein separation techniques have been utilized in recent years as alternative means of differentiating species and strains of tapeworms. As with the traditional morphological approach, however, there is the potential for host influence. For such separative techniques to be useful taxonomically it is important that the banding profiles differentiating parasites be consistent, regardless of host species. To test for host influence, two Hymenolepis species were maintained both in preferred and alternative definitive host species. The soluble proteins of tapeworms of a given species, from the di

Abstract:

The tapeworm Hymenolepis diminuta is a common parasite of the small intestine in rodents but it can also infect humans. Due to its characteristics and ease of maintenance in the laboratory, H. diminuta is also an important model species in studies of cestodiasis, including the search for new drugs, treatments, diagnostics and biochemical processes, as well as its host–parasite interrelationships. A great deal of attention has been devoted to the immune response caused by H. diminuta in the host, and several studies indicate that infection with H. diminuta can reduce the severity of concomitant

AbstractDetailed epidemiological survey on distribution of fox tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis was carried out in the territory of Slovakia between 2000 and 2010. A total of 4 761 red foxes from all districts of Slovakia were investigated using modified sedimentation and counting method. E. multilocularis was found in small intestines of 1 441 animals that represent an overall prevalence of 30.3 %. The number of tapeworms found in individual foxes varied between 1 and 245 000 specimens with mean worm burden of 1 777. The results of decennial epizootological research confirmed the existenc
