Two-day-old baby hamsters were infected initially with the infective larvae of hamster-adapted human hookworm, Necator americanus (NaL3). After a specified period they were again infected orally with infective larvae of Ancylostoma ceylanicum (AcL3). Three weeks after the second infection they were killed and the establishment of N. americanus and A. ceylanicum was assessed. The effect of different infection levels and exposure period of N. americanus on the concurrent establishment of A. ceylanicum was also examined. An infection with 50 NaL3 percutaneously, and 3 weeks later, a second infection with 50 AcL3 orally has produced reasonably equal number of hookworms (no statistical difference in the burden of N. americanus and A. ceylanicum) in the intestine of hamsters. Thus this protocol of dual infection was found suitable to develop two species of hookworms in hamsters for anthelmintic screening. 相似文献

We evaluated a two-step semi-nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based approach for the specific detection of Ancylostoma duodenale DNA in human faeces. The test was used to determine to what extent this species of hookworm is present in the regions of Bolgatanga and Garu of northern Ghana. Initially, the sensitivity and specificity of the PCR were tested using a range of well-defined control samples. Subsequently, a total of 378 human faecal DNA samples from Bolgatanga and Garu were subjected to the PCR. The results were compared with those obtained using a previously established PCR for the specific detection of Necator americanus DNA in human faeces. Infection with A. duodenale was recorded in 74 (19.6%) samples and N. americanus in 278 (73.5%), of which 64 (16.9%), represented co-infections with both species. While A. duodenale was predominantly detected in the samples from Bolgatanga, infections in Garu related almost exclusively to N. americanus. The results showed that the present PCR approach is a valuable complementary tool for the diagnosis of A. duodenale infection in humans in Ghana, having implications for epidemiological studies and for the monitoring of the success of control programmes in regions in Africa. 相似文献

Species identification of human hookworm infections among eight communities in rural areas of Peninsular Malaysia was determined during 2009-2011. Fecal samples were examined by microscopy and subsequently, the internal transcribed spacer 2 and 28S ribosomal RNA region of Necator americanus and Ancylostoma spp. were sequenced. Overall, 9.1% (58 of 634) were identified positive by microscopy for hookworm infection, and 47 (81.0%) of 58 were successfully amplified and sequenced. Sequence comparison found that N. americanus (87.2%) was the most predominant hookworm identified, followed by Ancylostoma ceylanicum (23.4%). No A. duodenale infection was detected in this study. Detection of A. ceylanicum in humans highlighted the zoonotic transmission among humans living near dogs. Thus, implementation of effective control measures for hookworm infections in future should seriously consider this zoonotic implication. 相似文献

Hookworm infection has traditionally been highly endemic to Anhui Province, China. Zhongzhou village in southwestern Anhui was identified as an endemic focus of infection caused by the hookworm Ancylostoma duodenale. This species was found to predominate over Necator americanus in ratios ranging from 35:1 based on the recovery of third-stage infective larvae (L,) to 21:1 based on the recovery of adult hookworms after anthelmintic chemotherapy. The overall prevalence of Ancylostoma infection in Zhongzhou was 33.2% with a greater prevalence among males. Unlike the age-associated prevalence patterns for N. americanus in Hainan and other southern Chinese provinces that show increasing prevalence with age and the highest prevalence among the elderly, the age-associated prevalence for A. duodenale in Zhongzhou exhibited a peak in middle-aged adults with subsequent decline. The age-associated intensity pattern exhibited a similar trend although the most of the hookworm infections were light or moderate infections as defined by quantitative egg counts. 相似文献

Four experiments are described in which hamsters, initially exposed to primary infection with Ancylostoma ceylanicum , were given a homologous challenge and components of the secondary response were quantified and compared to relevant control groups. The initial establishment of the L3 larvae was not prevented in immunized hamsters but their growth was slowed and virtually all larvae were lost within a week of challenge, when the majority were still at the L4 stage of development. The loss of worms was associated with an accelerated mucosal mastocytosis and increased systemic antibody. Thus acquired immunity to hookworm larvae in this system acted on L3 and L4 stages, thereby preventing larvae from maturing in immunized animals. In contrast to primary infections, immunized hamsters responding to a challenge infection did not lose weight nor did they experience significant anaemia, because of the lack of adult worms. The secondary immune responses therefore prevented manifestation of hookworm disease among immunized-challenged animals . 相似文献

Third-stage larvae (L3) of the human hookworm parasite Ancylostoma ceylanicum were cultured from the feces of infected hamsters and frozen for up to 100 days in liquid nitrogen. Upon thawing, viable larvae were recovered and used to inoculate naive hamsters. The larvae recovered from this second group of hamsters were used to inoculate a third group of naive animals, which demonstrated that the originally frozen larvae were successfully maintained for two full generations following thawing. These data suggest that exsheathment, which has previously been reported to be essential for successful cryopreservation, is not necessary for recovery of viable, infectious A. ceylanicum L3. 相似文献

With the implementation of programs to control lymphatic filariasis and soil-transmitted helminths using broad spectrum anthelmintics, including albendazole and ivermectin, there is a need to develop an in vitro assay for detection of drug resistance. This report describes an in vitro assay for measuring the effects of ivermectin and benzimidazoles on the motility of larvae of the hookworm species Ancylostoma ceylanicum, A. caninum, and Necator americanus, and Strongyloides species including Strongyloides stercoralis, and S. ratti. A dose-response relationship was demonstrated with each of the parasite species, with distinct differences observed between the various species. In pilot field testing of the assay with N. americanus larvae recovered from human fecal samples, a dose-response relationship was observed with ivermectin. While the assay has demonstrated the ability to determine drug responsiveness, its usefulness in resistance detection will require correlation with the clinical outcome among individuals infected with parasite strains showing different drug sensitivities. 相似文献

In order to assess the possible utility of lectin binding to identify the cellular components of fixed arterial lesions we studied lectin binding in experimental rabbit and monkey vessels, as well as in human atherosclerotic arteries obtained at surgery. The avidin-biotin-peroxidase technique was used to localize the binding of the following biotinylated lectins: Concanavalin A (Con A), Dolicho biflorus agglutinin (DBA), soybean agglutinin (SBA), peanut agglutinin (PNA), Phaseolus vulgaris agglutinin (PHA), Ricinus communis agglutinin (RCA), wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), and Ulex europaeus agglutinin (UEA). PHA demonstrated specific cytoplasmic staining of macrophages in rabbit, monkey, and human tissues and differentiated macrophages from other cell types in atherosclerotic lesions. When morphometric comparisons were made between lesion PHA staining and another macrophage marker, acid lipase, very similar results were obtained. Con A, RCA, and WGA stained macrophages intensely and differentiated them from other cell types in normal reticuloendothelial tissues and lesions, but also stained smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells when these cells developed lipid vacuoles. UEA stained the endothelium of vasa vasorum consistently in human arteries, but staining of artery lumen endothelium was variable. Endothelial cells of rabbit or monkey vessels did not stain with UEA. DBA, PNA, and SBA did not consistently stain any cellular structures in arteries. PHA was found to be an excellent marker to differentiate and quantify macrophages in glutaraldehyde or formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded experimental and human atherosclerotic lesions. Con A, RCA and WGA merit further detailed study in conjunction with other histochemical tests as possible markers of functional changes in arterial cells during lesion development. 相似文献

A cohort study to identify incidence and risk factors of hookworm infection was conducted in a rural community, central Thailand from November 2005 to February 2007. Stool specimens were examined for hookworm eggs using wet preparation, Kato thick smear, and water-ethyl acetate sedimentation technique. The incidence rate of hookworm infection was 7.5/100 person-years. The independent risk factors for acquiring hookworm infection were barefoot walking (incidence rate ratio [IRR] = 4.2, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.2-14.5) and raising buffaloes around the house (IRR = 4.8, 95% CI = 1.9-11.8). Sequencing of internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1)-5.8S-ITS2 region of the ribosomal RNA gene were performed for identifying species of hookworm. Necator americanus was the most common hookworm identified in this population. Ancylostoma duodenale and A. ceylanicum were also detected. Our data suggest transmission of both human and animal hookworms in this community. Thus, prevention and control strategies of hookworm infection should cover both human and animal infection. 相似文献

Vaccination with neutrophil inhibitory factor reduces the fecundity of the hookworm Ancylostoma ceylanicum 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Neutrophil inhibitory factor (NIF), a protein isolated from hookworms of the genus Ancylostoma, inhibits CD11b/18-dependent leucocyte function, binding to the I domain of CD11b. Historically, NIF was serendipitously isolated from whole worm extracts during a search for novel antihaemostatic agents, and little is known of its source or biological significance to the parasite. NIF has also been identified as a possible hookworm vaccine candidate. Ancylostoma ceylanicum recombinant NIF, expressed in its active form in Pichia pastoris, was purified and its functional activity confirmed using neutrophil adhesion assays and confirmatory immunoassay. Recombinant NIF was subsequently used in vaccination trials in the A. ceylanicum-hamster model system for human hookworm infection. Vaccinated and challenged animals were not protected in terms of worm burden or haematocrit values, despite the presence of high levels of specific antibody against NIF. However, adult worms resident in vaccinated animals showed a significant reduction in fecundity (85.8% by day 21 postinfection), indicating a degree of protection against subsequent transmission by vaccination. These data indicate that targeted vaccination with recombinant subunit material, derived from a known and effective immune suppressant secreted by the parasite, may offer partial protection against the transmission of hookworm infection. Furthermore, we can also report that a biological activity characteristic of NIF is detectable in the secretions of A. ceylanicum using two complementary bioassays. Complete neutralization of this secreted activity by vaccination in combination with other vaccine candidates may result in improved protection against A. ceylanicum infection. 相似文献

Selective primary health care: strategies for control of disease in the developing world. XVII. Hookworm infection and anemia 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
H M Gilles 《Reviews of infectious diseases》1985,7(1):111-118
Approximately one-quarter of the world's population is infected with either Ancylostoma duodenale or Necator americanus. Humans transmit the hookworm by fecal contamination of the soil. The eggs hatch and the larvae may survive several months in warm, damp soil. Humans are infected when the larvae penetrate the skin and migrate through the body to the intestines, where the median survival time of the hookworm is one year. The loss of red blood cells into the gut is proportional to the worm load. Symptoms result from iron deficiency anemia and protein loss caused by a heavy worm burden. The peak age-specific prevalence of infection occurs in adult life, but only a small proportion of those infected ever become symptomatic. Possible control measures include chemotherapy to reduce the intensity of infection and the transmission potential and sanitation. 相似文献

An agar plate (AP) method has been developed for culturing infectious larvae of the hookworm Ancylostoma ceylanicum. The third-stage larvae reared using the AP method displayed similar morphology to those cultured using Baermann or Harada-Mori coproculture techniques. The yield of viable larvae from the AP method (50%) was comparable to that of the Baermann (47%), and both were superior to Harada-Mori (2.1%). Third-stage larvae cultured by the AP method established patent infection in naturally permissive laboratory hosts, although the yield of adult worms was reduced compared with animals infected with L3 obtained by Baermann culture. The AP method is useful for defining growth requirements for hookworm development, as well as characterizing the effects of bacterially expressed compounds on hookworm larvae in vivo. 相似文献
