Diphyllobothrium

Niclosamide is an anthelmintic, which is active against various intestinal tapeworms. It is the drug of choice for tapeworm infections due to Taenia Saginata, Diphyllobothrium Latum, and Taenia Solium. Niclosamide is particularly effective... [Pg.92]

The most likely reason for cobalamin deficiency is pernicious anemia (failure to absorb vitamin B 2 in the absence of intrinsic factor from parietal cells). Vitamin Bjj absorption also decreases with aging and in individuals with chronic pancreatitis. Less common reasons for Bjj deficiency include a long-term completely vegetarian diet (plants don t contain vitamin Bjj) and infection with Diphyllobothrium latum, a parasite found in raw fish. Excess vitamin B,2 is stored in the body, so deficiencies develop slowly. [Pg.250]

Fora basic account of synapses in general, see the text by Threadgold 877). Synapses have been examined in a number of genera, e.g. Diphyllobothrium, Echinococcus and Hymenolepis 277, 726,936,941,943). In the plerocercoid of Diphyllobothrium dendriticum, synapses are formed between neurites in which the presynaptic neurite contains (a) both dense-core vesicles and clear vesicles or b) small clear vesicles only (Fig. 2.10). The former correspond closely to the dense-core vesicles of aminergic neurones, and have been tentatively classified as aminergic synapses (277), whilst the latter are classified as cholinergic synapses. These neurones are discussed further below. [Pg.25]

The postsynaptic densities (bold arrows) and the synaptic clefts (thin arrows) are well developed in all synapses. (After Gustafsson, 1984.)... Fig. 2.10.

The presence of cholinesterase has been detected by chemical or histo-chemical means in a number of species e.g. Diphyllobothrium latum, D. dendriticum (796) Taenia saginata, T. taeniaeformis, Hymenolepis spp., E. granulosus, Dipylidium caninum (202, 435, 755, 756, 796). Putative cholinergic synapses are characterised by their content of small clear vesicles tightly packed on the presynaptic side (278). Acetylcholine is thought to serve as an inhibitory neurotransmitter and has been shown to have a... [Pg.30]
