Inheritance of Schistosoma mansoni infection incompatibility in Biomphalaria alexandrina snails.
In this study, we looked at the inheritance of susceptibility and resistance to Schistosoma mansoni infection in the first generation of crossbred Biomphalaria alexandrina snails. Our ultimate goal is to use such information to develop a biological method of controlling schistosomiasis. We infected laboratory-bred snails with S. mansoni miracidia and examined cercarial shedding to determine sus...
متن کاملEffect of Infection with Shistosoma mansoni on Some Biological Parameters in Biomphalaria alexandrina Snails
Histological alterations in digestive gland as well as hematological and biochemical changes in haemolymph of Shistosoma mansoni infected Biomphalaria alexandrina snails were studied. The results showed great histological damages in tissues of the digestive gland of infected snails with large numbers of sporocysts and cercariae at several stages of development encircled by cycts in tissue of di...

متن کاملTestosterone, gonadotropins and androgen receptor during spermatogenesis of Biomphalaria alexandrina snails (Pulmonata: Basommatophora).
Endocrine regulation of reproductive processes of the snail Biomphalaria alexandrina is poorly recognized. Thus, the aims of the study were: (1) to acquire histological images of the ovotestis; (2) to determine the hemolymph concentrations of testosterone (T) and gonadotropic hormones (luteinizing hormone: LH and follicle stimulating hormone: FSH), (3) to demonstrate androgen receptor (AR) immu...
متن کاملNew scope on the relationship between rotifers and Biomphalaria alexandrina snails.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of rotifer internalization into snail tissue on the development of schistosomes. METHODS Susceptible laboratory-bred Biomphalaria alexandrina (B. alexandrina) snails were exposed to lab-maintained rotifers; Philodina spp., two weeks before and after being infected with Schistosoma mansoni (S. mansoni) miracidia. The consequent histopathological impact on sn...
