Host exposure history and priority effects impact the development and reproduction of a dominant parasite
2021, International Journal for ParasitologyChanges in hemocytes of Biomphalaria glabrata infected with Echinostoma paraensei and exposed to glyphosate-based herbicide
2019, Journal of Invertebrate PathologyCitation Excerpt :The freshwater snail Biomphalaria glabrata Say, 1818 (Gastropoda: Planorbidae) is an important intermediate host for the larval developmental stages of different parasitic platyhelminths (flatworms), including Schistosoma mansoni Sambon, 1907 and Echinostoma paraensei Lie and Basch, 1967 (Lie and Basch, 1967; Loker et al., 1986; Paraense, 2001).
Effect of a hemiuroid trematode on the hemocyte immune parameters of the cockle Anadara trapezia
2013, Fish and Shellfish ImmunologyCitation Excerpt :For example, changes may occur in the number, morphology, and phagocytic activity of the hemocytes, such as in the snail B. glabrata following infection with S. mansoni[15], and in Lymnaea stagnalis when infected with Trichobilharzia ocellata [16]. These modifications of the immune system following infection of a susceptible host seem to be species-specific [17]. The current study considered the marine bivalve Anadara trapezia and its cellular immune responses to asexual stages of a hemiuroid trematode by comparing hemocyte parameters in parasitized and non-parasitized cockles using histology and flow cytometry.
Tissue responses exhibited by Biomphalaria alexandrina snails from different Egyptian localities following Schistosoma mansoni exposure
2011, Experimental ParasitologyCitation Excerpt :Many investigators observed cellular reaction against trematode invasion such reactions usually consist of massive proliferation of amebocytes, with encapsulation and destruction of sporocysts (Pan, 1965; Bayne et al., 1980). Similarly Loker et al. (1986) found miracidium–amebocyte contact within 3 h and phagocytosis of sporocysts microvilli and pieces of tegument within 7.5 h, while extensive pathology was demonstrated within 24 h and by 48 h only scattered remnants of sporocysts remained. Hemocytes contact with sporocysts is essentials for rapid sporocysts death in vivo and most sporocysts of S. mansoni were dead within 72 h (Sullivan and Hu, 1995).
