Comparative Proteomic Analysis of Hymenolepis diminuta Cysticercoid and Adult Stages

Cestodiases are common parasitic diseases of animals and humans. As cestodes have complex lifecycles, hexacanth larvae, metacestodes (including cysticercoids), and adults produce proteins allowing them to establish invasion and to survive in the hostile environment of the host. Hymenolepis diminuta is the most commonly used model cestode in experimental parasitology. The aims of the present stu...

Identification of Hymenolepis diminuta Cysticercoid Larvae in Tribolium castaneum (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) Beetles from Iran

BACKGROUND Hymenolepis diminuta is a cestod of rodents and rarely infects humans. Infection in humans is via ingestion of infected insects. This study was aimed to detect H. diminuta cysticercoids in red flour beetles, Tribolium castaneum, and cockroaches originated from different regions of Iran. METHODS The red flour beetles and cockroaches were collected from local bakeries in five cities ...

Studies on Malic Enzyme from Hymenolepis Diminuta

Analysis of a child infected with Hymenolepis diminuta in Poland.

Hymenolepis diminuta is a cosmopolitan parasite of rats and mice which is very rare in humans. This study presents the case of a 3-year-old boy infected with Hymenolepis diminuta in Poland. The diagnosis was based on eggs found and their morphology in the patient's stool.
