Abstract:
Information is provided on the causative agents of fasciolosis and the developmental biology of Fasciola hepatica. Fasciolosis of cattle is widespread in the conditions of the Kaluga Region and the Central Federal District on farms of different forms of ownership. The greatest number of F. hepatica eggs in 1 g of feces in cattle is established in JSC "Iskra" - 175,4 specimens, the lowest - in the samples from cows from private farms - 87,6 sp. At the opening slaughter of cattle at meat processing plants region and slaughterhouses invasion of their fasciolae was 34.8%. The average number fascial one infected animal was 32.1 specimens, including adult - and larval specimens of 25.2 and 6.9 copies At veterinary-sanitary expertise and helminthological autopsy of the liver, gallbladder and bile ducts installed year-round invasion fasciolae mainly in the adult stage. Young animals of the current year are infected with fasciola in the pasture massly in August-September, and the extent of invasion in November was 4.3%, for winter-stabling months an average of 12.6%, in March - 17.9% and in April after de-worming - 5.9%.The data obtained in the study of the distribution of the small pond has shown that in the Kaluga region these mollusks are widespread. In this case, the invasion of the small pond snail by larval forms of fasciolae in different years has its own peculiarities, which are influenced by climatic factors.The different dosage forms of clozantel - Rolenol and Santel and Genamectin with mixed fascioliasis and hypodermatosis of bovine in the recommended dose against subcutaneous gadfly larvae - provided 100% efficacy. The tested dosage forms of clozantel are similar in effectiveness against subcutaneous gadfly larvae (EE-100%) and fasciol (EE-95 and 90%, IE-97.4 and 96.3%).The therapeutic and economic effectiveness of complex domestic preparations of Helmicide and Fascocida in spontaneous fascioliasis of cattle is studied.

Abstract:
Fascioliasis is an infection of the trematodes of Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica which causes disease worldwide. This trematode infection commonly attacks ruminants, especially in cattle, buffalo, sheep, goats, pigs and humans, as well. This disease can cause significant economic losses in the livestock industry, mainly through death, liver damage, reduced production of meat, milk and wool, and expenses for deworming. Parasitological examination for identification of fasciola infection was carried out by visually observing fecal samples for adult worms and then examined by simple flotation (using saturated NaCl solution) and formalin-ethyl acetate sedimentation techniques. Here, we were systematically reviewed existing knowledge about sensitive and efficient fasciola observation methods for the identification of fasciola species. Four databases of articles that met the inclusion requirements were compiled for the literature review. This article was published between 2015-2020 and reports on the identification of fasciola species using one or a combination of sedimentation and flotation methods. As a result, the combined method of sedimentation and flotation has the best sensitivity and egg recovery rate (Ef) values for fasciola identification. Abstrak Fascioliasis merupakan infeksi trematoda spesies Fasciola hepatica dan Fasciola gigantica yang menimbulkan penyakit di seluruh dunia. Infeksi trematoda ini umum menyerang ruminansia, terutama pada sapi, kerbau, domba, kambing, babi dan bisa terjadi pada manusia. Penyakit ini dapat menimbulkan kerugian ekonomi yang cukup besar dalam industri ternak, terutama melalui kematian, kerusakan hati, berkurangnya produksi daging, susu, dan wol, dan pengeluaran biaya untuk obat cacing. Pemeriksaan parasitologi untuk identifikasi infeksi fasciola dilakukan dengan mengamati sampel feses secara visual untuk cacing dewasa dan kemudian diperiksa dengan cara flotasi sederhana (menggunakan larutan NaCl jenuh) dan teknik sedimentasi formalin-etil asetat. Disini, kami meninjau secara sistematis pengetahuan yang ada tentang metode pengamatan fasciola yang sensitif dan efisien dalam identifikasi spesies fascioal. Empat data base artikel yang telah memenuhi syarat inklusi disusun untuk tinjauan literature review. Artikel ini terbit antara tahun 2015-2020 dan melaporkan identifikasi spesies fasciola menggunakan salah satu atau gabungan metode sedimentasi dan flotasi. Hasilnya, metode gabungan antara sedimentasi dan flotasi memiliki nilai sensitivitas dan nilai tingkat pemulihan telur (egg recovery rate, Ef) paling baik untuk identifikasi fasciola.

Abstract:
In the lowland of Dagestan, sheep are infected with 5 species of trematodes – Fasciola hepatica (L., 1758), Fasciola gigantica (Cobbold, 1856), Dicrocoelium lanceatum (Stiles et Hassal, 1896), Paramphistomum cervi (Zeder, 1990), Calicophoron calicophorum (Fischoeder, 1901). The total infection of sheep with trematodas varies the extensity of invasion (EI) 56.0–76.0%, with the intensity of invasion (II) 2–2360 species. The sheep are intensely infected with fascioles on low-lying wetlands, with paramphistomatids on pastures of the lower reaches of the Sulak, Terek, Talovka, lakes Temirgoe, Achikol, and with Dicrocoelium in areas where flat steppes. Sheep are limited to trematodes invaded by salt marshes and desert lands, EI 1.6–6.6%, II 2–28 species. Sheep are intensively infected with these pathogens in the spring-summer-autumn time, when intermediate, additional hosts and the formation of parthenogenetic stages in them to adoleskarii, metacercarii are active in the biotopes between the rivers Sulak and Terek. Infection with Adolescaria fascial and Paramphistomum occurs in winter when they are snowless. Adolescaria are formed on water plants, on water surface, near sources of water. The lush greenery around the watering holes always attracts animals. In these areas, there is always a high risk of infection of sheep with fascioles, paramphistomatids.

Abstract:
AbstractThe most common and widespread liver flukes of the genus Fasciola are Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica. Adults of both species occur in many domestic ruminants and in humans and can cause serious disease. The differential diagnosis of these flukes infection is very important because of their different transmission and epidemiological characteristics. A simple and rapid PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) assay, using the common restriction enzymes AluI and RsaI, is described to distinguish between both fasciolid species. After the digestion of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase 1 (CO1) PCR product with the restriction enzyme AluI, the RFLP profile obtained from F. hepatica revealed two fragments, whereas F. gigantica was not cut. The RsaI digestion generated two fragments from F. gigantica, whereas it did not cut the PCR product from F. hepatica. Results were confirmed with CO1 sequence analysis of both F. hepatica and F. gigantica. The present study suggests that the PCRRFLP method described here can be used for the proper identification of Fasciola species.

Abstract:
AbstractFascioliasis is an important food-borne parasitic disease caused by the two trematode species, Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica. The phenotypic features of fasciolid adults and eggs infecting buffaloes inhabiting the Central Punjab area, Pakistan, have been studied to characterize fasciolid populations involved. Morphometric analyses were made with a computer image analysis system (CIAS) applied on the basis of standardized measurements. Since it is the first study of this kind undertaken in Pakistan, the results are compared to pure fasciolid populations: (a) F. hepatica from the European Mediterranean area; and (b) F. gigantica from Burkina Faso; i.e. geographical areas where both species do not co-exist. Only parasites obtained from bovines were used. The multivariate analysis showed that the characteristics, including egg morphometrics, of fasciolids from Central Punjab, Pakistan, are between F. hepatica and F. gigantica standard populations. Similarly, the morphometric measurements of fasciolid eggs from Central Punjab are also between F. hepatica and F. gigantica standard populations. These results demonstrate the existence of fasciolid intermediate forms in endemic areas in Pakistan.

Abstract:
Background Fascioliasis is a significant vector-borne disease that has emerged in numerous tropical and subtropical countries causing severe health problems. Egypt is one of the fascioliasis endemic regions; however, the current situation in Upper Egypt is understudied, with only sporadic human cases or outbreaks. This study aims to highlight the sociodemographic characteristics of human fascioliasis in a newly emerged endemic area in Upper Egypt, along with risk factors analysis and the molecular characteristics of the fasciolid population in humans, animals, and lymnaeid snails. Methodology/Principal findings The study reported Fasciola infection in patients and their close relatives by analyzing the risk of human infection. Morphological and molecular characterization was performed on lymnaeid snails. Multigene sequencing was also used to characterize fasciolids from human cases, cattle, and pooled snail samples. The study identified asymptomatic Fasciola infection among family members and identified the presence of peridomestic animals as a significant risk factor for infection. This is the first genetic evidence that Radix auricularia exists as the snail intermediate host in Egypt. Conclusions/Significance This study revealed that Assiut Governorate in Upper Egypt is a high-risk area for human fascioliasis that requires additional control measures. Fasciola hepatica was the main causative agent infecting humans and snail vectors in this newly emerged endemic area. In addition, this is the first report of R. auricularia as the snail intermediate host transmitting fascioliasis in Upper Egypt. Further research is required to clarify the widespread distribution of Fasciola in Egypt’s various animal hosts. This provides insight into the mode of transmission, epidemiological criteria, and genetic diversity of fasciolid populations in Upper Egypt.\

Full text
Abstract:
The aim of this thesis was to characterize Kunitz-type (KT) protease inhibitors expressed by the helminth parasite Fasciola hepatica during infection of the mammalian host. KT inhibitors have traditionally been considered serine protease inhibitors. A P1 residue, typically Lys or Arg, within a reactive loop, determines serine protease inhibition specificity. Recombinant KT inhibitor expression was carried out for the gene identified in F. hepatica (fhktl) that encodes an uncommon P1 Leu residue. Inhibition studies found that FhKT1 did not inhibit serine proteases, but did inhibit cysteine protease, particularly cathepsin L-like cysteine proteases. Molecular modelling predicted that residues P1 Leu15 to P4’ Arg19 of the KT inhibitor interact with the S2 and S2’ pockets of the cysteine protease. Interrogation of the F. hepatica draft genome identified seven KT inhibitors in this parasite, which were found to fall into 5 distinct groups. The fhktl group is made up of three highly similar KT genes, two with a P1 Leu residue (fh ktl.1 and fh k tl.2), but another with a P1 Arg (fh ktl.3). Recombinant FhKT1.3was found to inhibit cysteine proteases, as well as trypsin. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that the fhkt genes are temporally regulated across mammal-associated parasite life-cycle stages, with only the fhktl group expressed at all stages. The fhktl group was also found to be the most highly expressed, as well as the only FhKTs secreted by the parasite. Based on the inhibition specificity of FhKT1 inhibitors, their constituative expression, tissue-specific localization and their presence in parasite secretions, these inhibitors are proposed to be multi-functional, with a primary role in the regulation of F. hepatica and host cathepsin L- like cysteine proteases. Based on the ability of FhKT1.3 to inhibit trypsin, this inhibitor could also function in parasite defence. FhKT1 represents a target at which a novel drug or vaccine could be directed.

Abstract:
5'-Deoxy-5'-methylthioadenosine (MTA) is derived from s-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) during the synthesis of the polyamines spermidine and spermine. Methionine can be regenerated from MTA by one of two mechanisms. In mammalian cells and some microorganisms, MTA is degraded to adenine and 5-methylthioribose-1-phosphate (MTR-1-P) via MTA phosphorylase. In certain other microbes, however, MTA is catabolized in two steps; first to adenine and 5-methylthioribose (MTR) via MTA nucleosidase followed by conversion of MTR to MTR-1-P via MTR kinase. This study was to demonstrate the presence of MTA nucleosidase or MTA phosphorylase in both redia containing cercariae and adult Fasciola hepatica Linnaeus, 1758. If MTA nucleosidase was present, it was wanted to determine if MTR kinase was also present. The phosphate-dependent cleaving activity of MTA phosphorylase was demonstrated in the cell-free extracts of adult Fasciola hepatica along with an unidentified MTR metabolizing activity. Redia containing cercariae showed MTA nucleosidase and MTR kinase activity.

Abstract:
Fasciolosis is a liver fluke disease, caused by Fasciola hepatica in temperate regions and high altitude areas of the tropics and subtropics and by Fasciola gigantica, which is restricted to the tropics and subtropics. Liver flukes have a wide range of definitive hosts, including man and, in particular, domestic ruminants, but the various hosts are known to differ greatly in their resistance to infection with these parasites. For example sheep are considered susceptible to challenge infection while cattle develop resistance. F. hepatica secretes the enzyme cathepsin-L1 protease (Fh-cathepsin) which has a molecular weight (MWt) of 27 kDa. It is considered to have a functional role in parasite evasion of the host immune response, through cleavage of host immunoglobulin. The enzyme, glutathione s-transferase (GST) which is of 27.8-29 kDa MWt, is also secreted by F. hepatica (Fh-GST) and is thought to be involved in the detoxification of exogenous (xenobiotic) and endogenous derived toxic compounds. Both enzymes form part of the fluke excretory/secretory (E/S) products and are of additional interest in that they are considered as vaccine candidates against fasciolosis. This study investigated the immunoglobulin isotype responses of sheep and cattle, chronically infected with F. hepatica and F. gigantica, to defined fluke antigens (F. hepatica E/S products (Fh-E/S) or F. gigantica E/S products (Fg-E/S), Fh-cathepsin and Fh-GST). It was decided to study the immune response in chronically infected animals since immunity is considered to play a potentially more important role in chronic infection than in acute infection, which is characterised by the death of the animal through anaemia and blood loss caused by the migrating flukes. Serum and faecal samples were collected weekly while the severity of the infections were defined using clinical, parasitological, haematological, biochemical and pathological parameters. Serum and faecal antibody (total Ig, IgG1, IgM, IgG2 and IgA) responses to 24-48 hour Fh-E/S, adult Fh-cathepsin and adult Fh-GST were determined by indirect Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). The antigen recognition profile of the Fasciola spp. infected sheep and cattle to Fh-E/S and Fg-E/S was examined by sequential Western blotting.

Arquivos Portugueses das Ciências Biológicas. Tomo XXXVI (in press)
Fasciola hepatica is a parasitic trematode with debilitating and socio-economically devastating effects. At present near to 600 million animals and 2.4 million people in the entire world suffer from fascioliasis. Genetic characterization is of the utmost importance to an efficient epidemiologic control of helminth infections. In the present study we aimed to provide the first insights into the genetic variability of F. hepatica in Portugal. 47 isolates from different hosts (cattle and sheep) and geographical locations (Beja, Castelo Branco, Coimbra, Évora, Faro, Leiria, Lisboa, Portalegre, Santarém and Setúbal) were analyzed through Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RAPD-PCR), Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) and sequencing of NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 (nad1) gene, cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) gene and Internal Transcribed Spacers (ITS) region. RAPD-PCR and RFLP patterns were similar for all the analyzed samples, despite their host and geographical origin. Nucleotide sequencing revealed low levels of genetic diversity within Portuguese isolates and no direct correlation was observed between haplotype and geographical location or host. Phylogenetic analysis revealed a high similarity within samples from Mediterranean countries, such as Portugal, Spain, Tunisia, Algeria and Egypt, possibly due to livestock import/export trade between these countries. Moreover, Portugal presents a low risk of fascioliasis drug-resistance.

Abstract:
Controlled multi-age infection studies demonstrated a lack of reliable detection within the first 6 weeks post-treatment using coproantigen (c)ELISA (Bio-X Diagnostics). A second cELISA is recommended for on-farm efficacy testing at 6 weeks in addition to an initial check at 1-2 weeks post-treatment. Field trials confirmed the utility of cELISA as an epidemiological monitoring tool, however results were inconclusive for the recommended field efficacy protocol and further studies are required. Fasciola hepatica burden in controlled studies correlated strongly with cELISA (R2=0.777) at necropsy, whilst addition of faecal egg count further improved this result (R2=0.835). Regression models fitted for field diagnostic data also demonstrated utilisation of the diagnostics in parallel to be the most explanatory of outcomes (R2= 0.91). These data support use of parallel diagnostics, which were found to have the greatest diagnostic sensitivity (Dsn = 0.975), although specificity was reduced (Dsp =0.7839) when compared to cELISA (Dsn = 0.842, Dsp = 0.931) or faecal egg count (Dsn = 0.842, Dsp = 0.842). Isolates of F. hepatica recovered from small ruminants with suspect TCBZ lack of efficacy were characterized in controlled experiments against TCBZ and closantel. Three of four isolates examined were susceptible to both anthelmintics. Characterization of Australian laboratory standard TCBZ-R (Oberon) and TCBZ-susceptible (s; Sunny Corner) reconfirmed TCBZ-R status and expanded knowledge of drug sensitivity. Oberon was confirmed susceptible to other drug classes, whilst Sunny Corner data were inconclusive for albendazole and clorsulon. Genetic variance of F. hepatica tubulin isotypes in Australian TCBZ-s and TCBZ-R populations was assessed using field and laboratory isolates. Selective pressure was examined via RT-PCR, cloning and sequencing. Seven novel nsSNPs were identified, including one unique to the field isolate; Numbugga.

Abstract:
The excretions, secretions and surface components of a parasite are by their nature centrally involved in the host/parasite interaction. Rats, like cattle, are capable of developing resistance to fasciolosis after primary infection and are therefore considered a suitable laboratory model for cattle. The objective of this study was to characterise the excretory/secretory (ES) and surface components of Fasciola hepatica as it develops in the rat, and to identify those components involved in the host/parasite interaction that may have diagnostic and/or protective value. Three trials were conducted during the study in order to produce supplies of rat antiserum which was protective against F. hepatica, Rats were infected with either 10 (first trial) or 20 (second and third trials) F. hepatica metacercariae as information from the literature indicated that these doses were adequate to stimulate the production of protective antibody levels. The rat sera from the three trials were checked for the presence of protective antibodies by passive protection studies. Only in the latter two trials was the level of protection conferred on recipient statistically significant. The probable causes for the lack of significant protection in trial 1 are discussed. The silver stained protein profiles of ES from newly excysted (D0) flukes and one-day old (D1) flukes were characteristic and were similar to each other. The ES of parenchymal 14-day old (D14) and adult (D56) flukes were markedly different from D0 and D1 flukes but similar to each other. The silver stained total ES protein profiles of the developing flukes were very different from the total biosynthetically (35S-methionine) radio-labelled ES protein profiles. Possible reasons for this are discussed. However, as with the total silver stained ES protein profiles there were clear changes in the profiles of the biosynthetically radio-labelled ES as the flukes developed. It is suggested that these differences in the ES products may reflect the changing environment and activities of the flukes. The possible functions of the changing ES products are discussed.

Abstract:
This work is based on helminthological data of amphibians, collected since 2013 until 2020, in the Republic of Moldova. The investigations on anura amphibians were conducted in the laboratory of Parazitology and Helminthology of the Institute of Zoology. One of the most common parasitic diseases in ruminants is fasciolosis, caused by the trematode Fasciola hepatica species. The results of parasitological research showed that adult cattle were infected with fascioles in 66.4% of cases, and young cattle - in 46.1% of cases. This is largely due to the grazing of animals of different species and ages in limited areas.The presence of the trematode species Haplometra cylindracea was established in 78% of cases in the amphibians in the Ranidae and Bufonidae families (Rana ridibunda, Rana lessonae, Rana temporaria, Bufo viridis). The results of laboratory helminthological investigations have shown that the relationships between the Fasciola hepatica miracidium and the Haplometra cylindracea miracidium are antagonistic. Amphibians of the Ranidae and Bufonidae families (Rana ridibunda, Rana lessonae, Rana temporaria, Bufo viridis) infested with Haplometra cylindracea tremateda may play an important role in the prophylaxis of fasciolosis.

Full text
Abstract:
Previous research has demonstrated the use of single-channel porcine-derived urinary bladder matrix (UBM) conduits in segmental-loss, peripheral nerve repairs as comparable to criterion-standard nerve autografts. This study aimed to replicate and expand upon this research with additional novel UBM conduits and coupled therapies. Fifty-four Wistar Albino rats were divided into 6 groups, and each underwent a surgical neurectomy to remove a 7-millimeter section of the sciatic nerve. Bridging of this nerve gap and treatment for each group was as follows: i) reverse autograft—the segmented nerve was reversed 180 degrees and used to reconnect the proximal and distal nerve stumps; ii) the nerve gap was bridged via a silicone conduit; iii) a single-channel UBM conduit; iv) a multi-channel UBM conduit; v) a single-channel UBM conduit identical to group 3 coupled with fortnightly transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS); vi) or, a multi-channel UBM conduit identical to group 4 coupled with fortnightly TENS. The extent of nerve recovery was assessed by behavioural parameters: foot fault asymmetry scoring measured weekly for six weeks; electrophysiological parameters: compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitudes, measured at weeks 0 and 6; and morphological parameters: total fascicle areas, myelinated fiber counts, fiber densities, and fiber sizes measured at week 6. All the above parameters demonstrated recovery of the test groups (3-6) as being either comparable or less than that of reverse autograft, but none were shown to outperform reverse autograft. As such, UBM conduits may yet prove to be an effective treatment to repair relatively short segmental peripheral nerve injuries, but further research is required to demonstrate greater efficacy over nerve autografts.
