Úvod Parazitismus je jednou z nejvíce rozšířených životních strategií organismů a hraje důležitou roli v evoluci. Zhruba před třiceti lety prošla parazitologie významnými změnami. Od dříve převládajícího spíše deskriptivního přístupu, který vycházel ze zoologických základů a byl velmi důležitý pro poznání širokého spektra skupin i jednotlivých druhů parazitů, došlo k přechodu na ekologické, fyziologické, imunologické, biochemické a v posledních 15-20 letech fylogenetické pojetí parazitologie. I přes bezpočet novodobých objevů v rámci parazitologie, zůstávají paraziti i nadále závažným problémem, mnohým se navíc vlivem lidské činnosti a globálních změn zvětšuje areál rozšíření a vzrůstá tak nebezpečí jejich šíření do nových oblastí a naivních hostitelů. Na druhou stranu vliv těchto faktorů vede také k úbytku řady druhů živočichů, kteří jsou jejich hostiteli. Sami paraziti, zejména ti hostitelsky specifičtí, tedy úzce vázaní na určitý taxon (např. plazího) hostitele se tak ocitají v pozici ohrožených, neboť bez svých ubývajících hostitelů nejsou schopni existovat. V neposlední řadě paraziti plazů představují zřejmě nejopomíjenější část globální parazitofauny obratlovců a představují tak její nejméně probádanou oblast zasluhující zvláštní pozornost. Přes relativně velké množství relevantních prací dodnes neexistuje kompletní seznam parazitofauny evropských plazů, který by ulehčil determinaci jednotlivých druhů, pomohl pochopit jejich ekologii a umožnil poodhalit podstatu složení a struktury jejich společenstev. Právě z těchto důvodů bylo v této práci stanoveno za cíl sestavení co možná nejkompletnějšího seznamu parazitů plazů vyskytujících se v Evropě, spolu s přehledem známého geografického rozšíření a spektra hostitelů jednotlivých druhů a základní vyhodnocení shromážděných dat. 8 2. Cíle Cílem této práce je: Vytvoření kompletního seznamu parazitů plazů Evropy, jejich geografického rozšíření a hostitelského spektra. Vytvoření kompletního seznamu plazů Evropy a jejich parazitů. Analýza získaných dat - charakteristika společenstev parazitů jednotlivých vyšších taxonů hostitelů. Analýza společenstev parazitů z hlediska jejich diverzity, životních strategií a biologie, hostitelského spektra a biogeografie. Zpracování části získaných dat formou rukopisu vědeckého článku. 9 3. Literární přehled 3.1 Charakteristika herpetofauny Evropy U plazů je jasný gradient růstu druhové diverzity směrem od severu k jihu s největší druhovou diverzitou v jižních oblastech, konkrétně na Iberském a Balkánském, příp. Apeninském poloostrově a v oblasti Kavkazu. Glaciální refugia, jako jsou například právě Iberský, Apeninský a Balkánský poloostrov, jsou důležitými centry druhové rozmanitosti, stejně jako Středomořské ostrovy. Nejvíce druhů plazů, tak nalezneme ve Španělsku (65 druhů), Řecku (55), Itálii (50), Francii (38) a Bulharsku (33) (Cox and Temple 2009). Celkové počty evropských druhů udává každý autor odlišné. Například Sillero et al. (2014) udávají 145 druhů plazů, zatímco Cox and Temple (2009) jich udávají 151. Právě tito autoři se nejvíce liší ve výběru druhů, které do Evropy zahrnují. Sillero et al. (2014) do Evropy nezahrnují druhy žijící na Kanárských ostrovech (např. ještěrky a gekony rodu Gallotia, resp. Tarentola), ostrovech Středozemního

  • What Is Known About Tritrichomonas Foetus Infection in Cats?
    Review Article ISSN 1984-2961 (Electronic) www.cbpv.org.br/rbpv Braz. J. Vet. Parasitol., Jaboticabal, v. 28, n. 1, p. 1-11, jan.-mar. 2019 Doi: https://doi.org/10.1590/S1984-29612019005 What is known about Tritrichomonas foetus infection in cats? O que sabemos sobre a infecção por Tritrichomonas foetus em gatos? Bethânia Ferreira Bastos1 ; Flavya Mendes de Almeida1 ; Beatriz Brener2 1 Departamento de Clínica e Patologia Veterinária, Faculdade de Medicina Veterinária, Universidade Federal Fluminense – UFF, Niterói, RJ, Brasil 2 Departamento de Microbiologia e Parasitologia, Universidade Federal Fluminense – UFF, Niterói, RJ, Brasil Received September 6, 2018 Accepted January 29, 2019 Abstract Tritrichomonas foetus is a parasite that has been definitively identified as an agent of trichomonosis, a disease characterized by chronic diarrhea. T. foetus colonizes portions of the feline large intestine, and manifests as chronic and recurrent diarrhea with mucus and fresh blood, which is often unresponsive to common drugs. Diagnosis of a trichomonad infection is made by either the demonstration of the trophozoite on a direct fecal smear, fecal culture and subsequent microscopic examination of the parasite, or extraction of DNA in feces and amplification by the use of molecular tools. T. foetus is commonly misidentified as other flagellate protozoa such asGiardia duodenalis and Pentatrichomonas hominis. Without proper treatment, the diarrhea may resolve spontaneously in months to years, but cats can remain carriers of the parasite. This paper intends to serve as a source of information for investigators and veterinarians, reviewing the most important aspects of feline trichomonosis, such as trichomonad history, biology, clinical manifestations, pathogenesis, world distribution, risk factors, diagnosis, and treatment.

  • Molecular Characterization of Histomonas Meleagridis in Clinical
    Original Article Molecular characterization of Histomonas meleagridis in clinical samples of chickens from Eastern China Jinjun Xu1,2 Chanbao Qu1,2 Pin Guo1,2 Zhennan Zhuo1,2 Dandan Liu1,2 Jianping Tao1,2* Abstract Histomonas meleagridis (H. meleagridis) is a protozoan parasite that may cause histomoniasis, a disease of special importance to the poultry industry and public health. The molecular characterization of H. meleagridis in China has not been established. The 5.8S and flanking ITS regions were amplified by polymerase chain reaction from 15 liver samples of chickens which were preliminarily diagnosed with H. meleagridis infection by observing clinical symptoms and macroscopic changes in the organs in Eastern China between 2012 and 2013. The obtained sequences were aligned and compared with other known sequences of H. meleagridis and related protozoan species based on ITS1-5.8S rRNA-ITS2 or 5.8S rRNA region alone. Out of the 15 obtained sequences, 8 sequences were identified as H. meleagridis and were grouped into five clades, suggesting the possibility of multiple genotypes within the samples. Among the remaining 7 sequences, 4 sequences were more related to Trichomonas and 3 sequences were more related to Tetratrichomonas, which suggests the possibility of misdiagnosis or coinfection with other protozoans. Therefore, there is obvious genetic diversity of H. meleagridis based on the 5.8S and flanking ITS regions, which suggests the presence of different genotypes in chickens from Eastern China.

  • The Amoeboid Parabasalid Flagellate Gigantomonas Herculeaof
    Acta Protozool. (2005) 44: 189 - 199 The Amoeboid Parabasalid Flagellate Gigantomonas herculea of the African Termite Hodotermes mossambicus Reinvestigated Using Immunological and Ultrastructural Techniques Guy BRUGEROLLE Biologie des Protistes, UMR 6023, CNRS and Université Blaise Pascal de Clermont-Ferrand, Aubière Cedex, France Summary. The amoeboid form of Gigantomonas herculea (Dogiel 1916, Kirby 1946), a symbiotic flagellate of the grass-eating subterranean termite Hodotermes mossambicus from East Africa, is observed by light, immunofluorescence and transmission electron microscopy. Amoeboid cells display a hyaline margin and a central granular area containing the nucleus, the internalized flagellar apparatus, and organelles such as Golgi bodies, hydrogenosomes, and food vacuoles with bacteria or wood particles. Immunofluorescence microscopy using monoclonal antibodies raised against Trichomonas vaginalis cytoskeleton, such as the anti-tubulin IG10, reveals the three long anteriorly-directed flagella, and the axostyle folded into the cytoplasm. A second antibody, 4E5, decorates the conspicuous crescent-shaped structure or cresta bordered by the adhering recurrent flagellum. Transmission electron micrographs show a microfibrillar network in the cytoplasmic margin and internal bundles of microfilaments similar to those of lobose amoebae that are indicative of cytoplasmic streaming. They also confirm the internalization of the flagella. The arrangement of basal bodies and fibre appendages, and the axostyle composed of a rolled sheet of microtubules are very close to that of the devescovinids Foaina and Devescovina. The very large microfibrillar cresta supporting an enlarged recurrent flagellum resembles that of Macrotrichomonas. The parabasal apparatus attached to the basal bodies is small in comparison to the cell size; this is probably related to the presence of many Golgi bodies supported by a striated fibre that are spread throughout the central cytoplasm in a similar way to Placojoenia and Mixotricha.

  • 1. Classification of Trypanosomes A. Phylum Euglenazoa B. Subphylum Kinetoplasta * C
    XIII Flagellates (2005) A. Hemoflagellates (Chapter 5) 1. Classification of trypanosomes a. Phylum Euglenazoa b. Subphylum Kinetoplasta * c. Class Trypanosomatida d. Important genera (1) Trypanosoma (2) Leishmania 2. Characteristics a. TRYP = hole, flagella embedded in an invagination = flagellar pocket b. Leaf-like c. One flagellum (1) Anterior is the free end (2). Location of pocket determines form (Life cycle may have more than one form) d. Forms (1) AMASTIGOTE (a) A = without (b) No flagellum (c) Usually intracellular Picture Slide #1: Amastigote; Fig 5.3a, p.63 (2) PROMASTIGOTE (a) PRO = forward (b) Pocket on anterior end (c) Usually occurs in vitro, = cultures (d) Considered most generalized form or form most closely resembling the ancestor of trypanosomes Picture Slide #2: Promastigote; Fig 5.3e, p 63 (3) EPIMASTIGOTE (a) EPI = upon (b) Pocket slightly anterior to nucleus (4) TRYPOMASTIGOTE (a) Pocket posterior (b) Flagellum attached to length of cell (c) Considered the most complex or specialized form Picture Slide #3: Epimastigote; Fig 5.3c, p. 63 Picture Slide #4: Trypomastigote; Fig 5.3f, p. 63 e. Important organelles (pp 46-48) (1). KINETOPLAST (a) KINETO = movement (b) Diagnostic of trypanosomes (c) Near base of flagellum (d) Modified mitochondrion (e) Contains more extracellular DNA than any organelle in any ` other eukaryotic cell Picture Slide #5: Kinetoplast; Fig 5.1, p 62 (2). UNDULATING MEMBRANE (a) Membrane connecting most of flagellum to body; “sail” (b) Epimastigotes & trypanomastigotes only f. Methods used to infect hosts (1). Salivarian trypanosomes (a). Develop in vector’s salivary glands (b). Accompany saliva into new host when vector bites (c) Example: Trypanosoma brucei “African sleeping sickness” (2) Stercorian trypanosomes (a) In vector’s intestine (b) Leave insect in feces (c) Invasion methods 1) Burrow through skin 2) Enter bite lesion (d) Example: T.
