    1 Exploring the male-induced female reproduction of Schistosoma mansoni in a novel medium Jipeng Wang1, Rui Chen1, James Collins1 1) UT Southwestern Medical Center. Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by schistosome parasites that infect over 200 million people. The prodigious egg output of these parasites is the sole driver of pathology due to infection. Female schistosomes rely on continuous pairing with male worms to fuel the maturation of their reproductive organs, yet our understanding of their sexual reproduction is limited because egg production is not sustained for more than a few days in vitro. Here, we explore the process of male-stimulated female maturation in our newly developed ABC169 medium and demonstrate that physical contact with a male worm, and not insemination, is sufficient to induce female development and the production of viable parthenogenetic haploid embryos. By performing an RNAi screen for genes whose expression was enriched in the female reproductive organs, we identify a single nuclear hormone receptor that is required for differentiation and maturation of germ line stem cells in female gonad. Furthermore, we screen genes in non-reproductive tissues that maybe involved in mediating cell signaling during the male-female interplay and identify a transcription factor gli1 whose knockdown prevents male worms from inducing the female sexual maturation while having no effect on male:female pairing. Using RNA-seq, we characterize the gene expression changes of male worms after gli1 knockdown as well as the female transcriptomic changes after pairing with gli1-knockdown males. We are currently exploring the downstream genes of this transcription factor that may mediate the male stimulus associated with pairing.
  • The Intestinal Protozoa

    The Intestinal Protozoa

    The Intestinal Protozoa A. Introduction 1. The Phylum Protozoa is classified into four major subdivisions according to the methods of locomotion and reproduction. a. The amoebae (Superclass Sarcodina, Class Rhizopodea move by means of pseudopodia and reproduce exclusively by asexual binary division. b. The flagellates (Superclass Mastigophora, Class Zoomasitgophorea) typically move by long, whiplike flagella and reproduce by binary fission. c. The ciliates (Subphylum Ciliophora, Class Ciliata) are propelled by rows of cilia that beat with a synchronized wavelike motion. d. The sporozoans (Subphylum Sporozoa) lack specialized organelles of motility but have a unique type of life cycle, alternating between sexual and asexual reproductive cycles (alternation of generations). e. Number of species - there are about 45,000 protozoan species; around 8000 are parasitic, and around 25 species are important to humans. 2. Diagnosis - must learn to differentiate between the harmless and the medically important. This is most often based upon the morphology of respective organisms. 3. Transmission - mostly person-to-person, via fecal-oral route; fecally contaminated food or water important (organisms remain viable for around 30 days in cool moist environment with few bacteria; other means of transmission include sexual, insects, animals (zoonoses). B. Structures 1. trophozoite - the motile vegetative stage; multiplies via binary fission; colonizes host. 2. cyst - the inactive, non-motile, infective stage; survives the environment due to the presence of a cyst wall. 3. nuclear structure - important in the identification of organisms and species differentiation. 4. diagnostic features a. size - helpful in identifying organisms; must have calibrated objectives on the microscope in order to measure accurately.

    تابع 2 أ.د / فاطمة إبراهيم سنبل أستاذ الميكروبيولوجيا الصيدلية • (Plate 2) • Life cycle of Balantidium coli Mastigophora • General characters : • This subphylum includes those protozoa that move actively by means of a Flagellum (or several flagella) during all or part of their life. In addition, the body has a definite form (not irregular as in amoebae) maintained by a firm pellicle on its outer surface. Some flagellates are devoid of a mouth opening but some have an opening or Cytostome through which food is ingested. They reproduced by longitudinal binary fission (not transverse fission as in case of B. coli). • Some have undulating membrane which appear to consist of highly modified flagellum. Flagellates have vesicular type of nucleus . • The parasitic flagellated protozoa fall into two categories with respect to the type of disease produced in humans : • a) Intestinal and genital flagellates : these are found only in the intestinal or genital tracts and their transmission does not require a biological vector and so pass directly from man to man usually enclosed in a cyst. They include : • - Giardia intestinalis (lamblia) • - Enteromonas hominis • - Trichomonas hominis • - Trichomonas tenax • - Trichomonas vaginalis • - Dientamoeba fragilis (amoeba-like flagellate) • The parasites are nearly all harmless commensals but two species, Giardia intestinalis and Trichomonas vaginalis are associated with inflammatory lesions in heavy infections and for practical purposes may be regarded as pathogenic . • b) Blood and tissue flagellates (haemoflagellates) : these infect the vascular system and various tissues and their transmission requires a biological vector. usually an arthropod (insect) in which they undergo a fresh cycle of alteration and multiplication before they can again infect man.

    Welcome to “PARA-SITE: an interactive multimedia electronic resource dedicated to parasitology”, developed as an educational initiative of the ASP (Australian Society of Parasitology Inc.) and the ARC/NHMRC (Australian Research Council/National Health and Medical Research Council) Research Network for Parasitology. PARA-SITE was designed to provide basic information about parasites causing disease in animals and people. It covers information on: parasite morphology (fundamental to taxonomy); host range (species specificity); site of infection (tissue/organ tropism); parasite pathogenicity (disease potential); modes of transmission (spread of infections); differential diagnosis (detection of infections); and treatment and control (cure and prevention). This website uses the following devices to access information in an interactive multimedia format: PARA-SIGHT life-cycle diagrams and photographs illustrating: > developmental stages > host range > sites of infection > modes of transmission > clinical consequences PARA-CITE textual description presenting: > general overviews for each parasite assemblage > detailed summaries for specific parasite taxa > host-parasite checklists Developed by Professor Peter O’Donoghue, Artwork & design by Lynn Pryor School of Chemistry & Molecular Biosciences The School of Biological Sciences Published by: Faculty of Science, The University of Queensland, Brisbane 4072 Australia [July, 2010] ISBN 978-1-8649999-1-4 http://parasite.org.au/ 1 Foreword In developing this resource, we considered it essential that

MANUALS 29 **At the time of this publication the coccidian parasite Cyclospora cayetanensis had not been classified. iii Introduction The intestinal protozoa of humans belong to four groups: amebae, flagellates, ciliates, and coccidia. All of the protozoa are microscopic forms ranging in size from about 5 to 100 micrometers, depending on species. Size variations between different groups may be considerable. The life cycles of these single- cell organisms are simple compared to those of the helminths. With the exception of the coccidia, there are two important growth stages, trophozoite and cyst, and only asexual development occurs. The coccidia, on the other hand, have a more complicated life cycle involving asexual and sexual generations and several growth stages. Intestinal protozoan infections are primarily transmitted from human to human. Except for Sarcocystis, intermediate hosts are not required, and, with the possible exception of Balantidium coli, reservoir hosts are unimportant.
