    Notes: SYNOPSIS. One-day-old chicks were less susceptible to experimental infection with E. acervidina than were 3-day-old chicks. Chicks fed intact oocysts when 3 days old produced 5.3, 6.7, and 42.7 times as many oocysts and had more extensive lesions than did those fed a similar number of oocysts when 1 day old. When oocyst suspensions that contained both liberated sporocysts and intact oocysts were administered, chicks infected when 3 days old produced only 1.8, 1.3, and 2.6 times as many oocysts as did those infected when 1 day old.Examination of gizzard and intestinal contents of chicks killed 2–1½ hr after receiving massive numbers of intact oocysts showed that only a few sporocysts were liberated from oocysts in the gizzard of 1-day-old chicks, whereas more were liberated in the gizzard of 3-day-old chicks. Very few sporozoites were found in the duodenum of the 1-day-old chicks. but there was a linear increase in the percentages in samples from lower levels of the small intestine. In 3-day-old chicks, excystation in the duodenum was high and, instead of increasing, remained at about the same level in the jejunum.The far smaller number of liberated sporocysts in the gizzards of 1-day-old chicks is attributed to less musculature and an incompletely developed grinding surface The delayed excystation of sporozoites in the intestine of 1-day-old chicks is thought to be due to suboptimal concentrations of trypsin and/or other pancreatic enzymes effecting excystation.The lighter infections observed in 1-day-old chicks, as compared to those in chicks 3 days old, are attributed to (a) a smaller number of liberated sporocysts leaving the gizzard, (b) delayed excystation in the intestine, and (c) less opportunity for sporozoites to penetrate epithelial cells.

    Notes: SYNOPSIS. Excysted sporozoites of Eimeria meleagrimitis, E. necatrix, E. acervulina, and E. gallopavonis were inoculated into monolayer cell cultures of bovine, ovine, porcine, and human kidney. E. meleagrimitis developed only in bovine embryonic kidney. Mature schizonts were found in the 11th, 16th, and 20th serial passages, but only immature schizonts were in the 4th and 6th passages. E. necatrix developed to mature schizonts in the 3rd, 4th, 6th, 11th, 16th, and 20th passages of bovine kidney and also to immature schizonts in the 175th and 189th passages of PK-15 (cell line porcine kidney). Schizonts, however, did not develop in the 140th and 145th passages of CCI-33 (cloned PK-15). Neither E. meleagrimitis nor E. necatrix developed in the primary, 1st or 2nd passages of bovine embryonic kidney, primary porcine kidney, 45th and 52nd passages of a human embryonic kidney cell line, or in the primary, 5th and 18th passages of ovine kidney. Eimeria acervulina and E. gallopavonis did not develop in any of the cultures. E. meleagrimitis and E. necatrix probably completed only one asexual generation in culture. The structure of mature schizonts of both species differed greatly from those in the natural host. Schizonts of E. meleagrimitis present at 48 hours were small (13–18 by 12–14 μ) and contained only 12–28 merozoites that were 3.2–3.8 μ long. At 48 hours, E. necatrix schizonts were 15–18 μ in diameter or less and contained only 15–20 merozoites (2.0–3.5 μ long); at 96 hours they were 50–70 by 10–35μ and contained either hundreds of small merozoites (2.0–3.5 μ long) or a lesser number of larger merozoites (9–11 μ).

    Notes: SYNOPSIS. The establishment of Eimeria acervulina sporozoites in the duodenal glands of Lieberkühn of the chicken is described. Sporozoites were found to enter the tips of the villi and pass into the lamina propria, or core, of the villus. Within the lamina propria, sporozoites were engulfed by macrophages and taken to the glandular epithelium.Data are presented which indicate that macrophages serve as a defense against infection as well as a mode of transportation.

    Notes: Eimeria tenella completed its endogenous life cycle in primary cultures of kidney cells from 2- to 3-week-old-chickens, guinea fowl, partridges, pheasants, quail, and turkeys. Similarity in percentage of infection at 4 hr suggested that sporozoites entered cells from all birds in equal numbers. Development was better, however, in chicken cells in that the percentage of survival and of developmental stages during the first 2 days were greater, developmental stages occurring after 2 days usually were found earlier, mature 2nd-generation schizonts and oocysts were larger, and oocyst production was far greater than in nonhost cells. Multinucleate macrogametes, which sometimes reached sizes 3–4 times greater than normal oocysts, are reported for the first time.

    Notes: SYNOPSIS. Monolayer cell cultures of embryonic turkey intestine (primary) and bovine kidney (cell line, 20th passage), maintained at 40.6 and 43 C for alternating intervals of approximately 12 hours in Basal Medium Eagle and fetal calf serum at pH 7.0–7.4, were observed for 144 hours after inoculation of Eimeria meleagrimitis sporozoites.In turkey intestine cultures, which consisted of fibroblast-like cells and patches of epitheliul-like cells, there were decreases of 80 and 81% in the numbers of parasites between 5 and 48 hrs; in bovine cultures, 21–41% decreases. Decreases in the turkey cultures, however, were due to the nonsurvival of sporozoites in fibroblast-like cells; in epitheliul-like cells there was a 42% dcrease between 5 and 48 hrs and only 27% between 48 and 144 hours.Trophozoites were present in bovine cells at 5 hrs. Small, mature schizonts containing only 12-28 merozoites were present in the bovine cultures and in the epitheliul-like cells within turkey intestine cultures from 48-144 hrs. Larger schizonts (50-115 by 20-70 μ) were present in bovine but not in turkey cultures from 72–144 hrs. Many of these schizonts contained far more merozoites than schizonts of any of the 3 generations described from the host.In bovine cultures, there was an abundance of liberated merozoites at 50, 52, 74, and 76 hrs; many had reinvaded cells, sometimes as many as 50–60 per cell. In turkey cultures, liberated merozoites were found once at 144 hrs and none were intracellular. At 120 and 144 hrs in bovine cultures, abnormally developed and degenerate forms appeared; in turkey cultures, all were normal.

    Storage Polysaccharide in Coccidial Sporozites after Excystation and Penetration of Cells (1969)

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: SYNOPSIS. Eimeria acervulina, E. necatrix, and E. meleagrimitis sporozoites were examined for carbohydrates by cytochemical methods during dormancy, after excystation, and after penetration of cells. The only carbohydrate found was amylopectin, a homogeneous polymer of glucose. It was distributed in 3 regions: (a) in front of the anterior refractile globule, (b) around the nucleus, and (c) behind the posterior refractile globule. The relative amounts decreased after excystation and penetration of cells until only small amounts remained around the nucleus. The quantity of amylopectin decreased following excystation from 30.0-36.7 to 9.4-13.3 μg glucose/106 oocysts. Over a 6 yr period of storage at 4 C, there was a decrease in the quantity of amylopectin in dormant sporozoites of E. acervulina from 33.3 μg glucose/106 oocysts at 3 mos to 1.5 μg at 6 years. Coincidentally, 3 month- and 1 year-old oocysts of E. acervulina produced patent infections in chicks with a dosage of 5 × 104 oocysts, but only a few of the oocysts that had been stored for 2 years were infective; a dosage of 2 × 106 oocysts was necessary to produce a patent infection. Oocysts which had been stored 6 years did not produce a patent infection.It was concluded that amylopectin is the energy source for excystation and subsequent penetration of cells. Small amounts of amylopectin are used during dormancy and, when the content in the sporozoite falls below a certain level, the sporozoites lack sufficient energy to infect cells.

    Notes: SYNOPSIS. Examination of the crop, gizzard, and intestinal contents of chickens fed suspensions of either Eimeria acervulina or E. tenella oocysts and turkeys fed either E. meleagrimitis or E. gallopavonis oocysts indicated that, in all 4 species, (1) oocysts apparently remained unchanged while in the crop, (2) sporocysts were liberated from oocysts while the latter were passing through the gizzard, (3) sporozoites were activated and escaped from liberated sporocysts after they had reached the small intestine, and (4) sporozoites within intact oocysts in the crop, gizzard, and intestines were not activated. In vitro, trypsin 1–300 alone caused a small percentage of sporozoites to excyst from mechanically liberated sporocysts. The percentage of excystation increased greatly when trypsin was added to sodium taurocholate and increased even more when it was combined with chicken or turkey bile.The two duodenal species (E. acervulina and E. meleagrimitis) differed both in vivo and in vitro from the two cecal species (E. tenella and E. gallopavonis). The duodenal species excysted in less time and farther anteriorly in the small intestine than did the cecal species. In addition, sporozoites of the two cecal species survived much longer in media containing trypsin plus bile or sodium taurccholate than did those of the two duodenal species.

    Notes: SYNOPSIS. Inhibitors, acid production, and substrate utilization by 4 strains of Tritrichmonas foetus (BP-3, BP-4, A-1, and A-2) were studied manometrically. All used glucose, galactose, mannose, fructose, sucrose, maltose, trehalose, glycogen, starch, lactate, and pyruvate. Strain A-1, with the highest aerobic and anaerobic endogenous rates, used these substrates less than did the others. Strain BP-3 did not use lactose; strains BP-4 and A-2 did not use raffinose aerobically and only slightly anaerobically; strain A-1 used both nearly as well as maltose and sucrose. All were strongly inhibited by iodoacetate and, if tested in the presence of glucose, aerobically or anaerobically, by fluoride, arsenite, hydroxylamine, and 8-hydroxyquinoline. Aerobically, 2,4-dinitrophenol produced stimulation which was greater in the presence of glucose; anaerobically, it produced inhibition which was, in some cases, comparable to the effects produced by the other inhibitors. Fluoride, arsenite, azide, and hydroxylamine, although producing insignificant inhibitory effects on endogenous O2 consumption, reduced and, in some cases, abolished motility of all strains. All 4 strains produced acid under anaerobic and aerobic conditions; strain A-1 produced more than the others. Lactic acid accounted for 30–51% of the acid produced in all strains.Strain A-1 more closely resembled the nasal trichomonad of swine (strain PN-610) than did strain BP-1. (Doran(3)). The writer believes that the swine nasal strain is a highly adapted strain of T. foetus.

    Notes: SYNOPSIS. The life cycle of a turkey strain of Eimeria dispersa Tyzzer was studied in Beltsville Small White turkeys. There were 4 asexual generations. Mature schizonts of the first generation were present 30 h postinoculation (PI); those of the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th generations were present 48, 72, and 96 h PI, respectively. Average size of schizonts and number and size of merozoites for each generation were as follows: first, 14.3 × 13.0 μm with 19.2 merozoites, each 4.5 × 1.2 μm; second, 8.0 × 7.2 μm with 13.5 merozoites, each 4.5 × 1.1 μm; third, 8.9 × 8.9 μm with 15.1 merozoites, each 5.6 × 2.1 μm; fourth, 11.6 × 10.5 μm with 6.7 merozoites, each 8.2 × 2.0 μm. Sporozoites and developmental stages of the first generation were in close association with an epithelial cell nucleus and located between the brush border and the “row” of epithelial cell nuclei; developmental stages of the other 3 generations were not associated with a nucleus and were located just under the brush border. Early macrogametes and microgametocytes were present 96 h PI. Development was confined to the epithelial cells of the villus and extended from the tip of the villus to ∼ 1/2 the distance down the sides in all areas of the intestine except the cecum. The prepatent period was between 114 and 120 h. Percentage of sporulation was 15, 57, and 90, at 24, 36, and 48 h, respectively. Sporulated oocysts averaged 24.5 × 20.2 μm.

    Notes: SUMMARY. The metabolism of Tritrichomonas foetus (strain, BP-1) and trichomonads from the nasal cavity and cecum of swine was studied manometrically under similar experimental conditions. At pH 6.4, quantitative and qualitative differences were observed. The cecal (probably T. suis) and nasal trichomonad used glucose, galactose, fructose, mannose, lactose, sucrose, raffinose, and trehalose. T. foetus used all except lactose and raffinose. All three were inhibited by iodoacetate and arsenite. T. foetus and the nasal form were significantly inhibited by fluoride and 8-hydroxyquinoline, whereas the cecal trichomonad was not. At varied pH, all failed to oxidize Krebs' cycle intermediates. The amounts of oxygen consumed by T. foetus and the nasal trichomonad in the presence of lactate and pyruvate were at levels similar to those with disaccharides; the cecal trichomonad was indifferent toward both substances. Anaerobically, lactate and pyruvate increased the evolution of gas by all three trichomonads. Aerobic acid formation was demonstrated for all three forms. Anaerobically, metabolic CO2 and gas(es) that were not absorbed by KOH were evolved by all three. Pure oxygen was inhibitory to glucose utilization and stimulatory to the endogenous respiration of all trichomonads; the nasal form was affected the least.The writer believes that the cecal trichomonad is different from T. foetus and the nasal trichomonad of swine. The relationship between the nasal trichomonad and T. foetus remains in doubt.
