    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).

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: SYNOPSIS. A pure strain of Eimeria debliecki (University of Illinois strain A) established from a single oocyst was used to determine the endogenous cycle. Young parasite-free pigs 2 weeks to 3 months old were used throughout the study.The endogenous cycle was found to take place in the small intestine where the parasites were located in the distal portion of the striated simple columnar epithelial cells of the villi. The first generation schizonts were found in only the jejunum (15% of small intestine). The second generation schizonts and gametes occurred in the jejunum and ileum (70% of small intestine), a slight posterior progression occurring with each stage. The entire cycle required 6.5 days.The schizogonous cycle comprised 2 generations. The first generation schizonts required 2.5 days to reach maturity, measured 8-12 μ, contained 16 merozoites measuring 12-15 μ and had a polar residual mass. The second generation schizonts required 2 days to reach maturity, measured 13-16 μ, contained 32 rotund merozoites measuring 6–8 μ, and had only a few granules of residual material.Gametogony took place in 1.5 days. The macrogametes measured 12-16 μ, and the microgametocytes measured 9-14 μ with microgametes measuring 5–6 μ.

    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.

    Details
    ISSN: 1550-7408

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: SYNOPSIS. Oxygen consumption of sporozoites of Eimeria acervulina, E. necatrix, and E. meleagrimitis was determined during in vitro excystation. Increase in O2 consumption occurred only when the permeability of the oocyst membrane was altered by either grinding or incubation in cystine buffer with CO2 when excystation fluid was present. Addition of 10−3 M KCN completely inhibited respiration. The O2 consumption reached a peak during the time the sporozoites were excysting, and then decreased to a lower level where it remained steady while the sporozoites were awaiting stimulus to penetrate host cells.

    Notes: Fine structure of gametocytes and oocyst formation of Sarcocystis sp. from Quiscalus quiscula Linnaeus grown in cultured embryonic bovine kidney cells was studied. Microgametocytes measured up to ∼5 μm diameter. During nuclear division of the microgametocyte, dense plaques were found adjacent to the nucleus just beneath the pellicle; occasionally microtubules were present within these plaques. These microtubules subsequently formed 2 basal bodies with a bundle of 4 microtubules between them. Microgametocytes also contained numerous mitochondria, micropores, granules, vacuoles, and free ribosomes. Each microgamete was covered by a single membrane and consisted of 2 basal bodies, 2 flagella, a bundle of 4 microtubules, a perforatorium, a mitochondrion, and a long dense nucleus which extended anteriorly and posteriorly beyond the mitochondrion. The bundle of 4 microtubules is thought to be the rudiment of a 3rd flagellum. Macrogametes were covered by a double membrane pellicle, and contained a large nucleus (∼2.5 μm), vacuoles, and a dilated nuclear envelope connected with the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER). In young macrogametes (∼4 μm), the ER was arranged in concentric rows in the cortical region, and several sizes of dense granules were found in the cytoplasm. However, in later stages (∼8 μm) the ER was irregularly arranged and was dilated with numerous cisternae; only large dark granules remained and a few scattered polysaccharide granules were found. No Golgi apparatus or micropores were observed. After the disappearance of dark granules 5 concentric membranes appeared. Four of these fused to form an oocyst wall composed of a dense outer layer (∼66 nm thick) and a thin inner layer (∼7 nm). The 5th or innermost membrane surrounded the cytoplasmic mass which was covered by a 2-layered pellicle and contained a nucleus, small amounts of ER, large vacuoles, and mitochondria. The sexual stages described greatly resemble those of Eimeria and Toxoplasma.

    Notes: SYNOPSIS. Cryptosporidium wrairi sp. n. is described from the laboratory guinea pig Cavia porcellus. The life cycle is given insofar as it is known. Two schizogonous generations are described; the 1st with 8 merozoites, the 2nd with 4 merozoites. The latter generation was previously referred to as the sporulated oocyst, but evidence is presented to show that it is a schizont. Micro- and macrogametogony are also described. No oocysts were found. Cross-transmission to mice, chickens, turkeys and rabbits was unsuccessful. The generic character of oocysts with 4 naked sporozoites is discarded and the presence of endogenous stages in the striated border of epithelial cells is used as the emended generic character. A listing of valid and non-valid species is given.

    Notes: SYNOPSIS. The ultrastructure of the known tissue stages of Cryptosporidium wrairi Vetterling, Jervis, Merrill, and Sprinz, 1971 parasitizing the ileum of guinea pigs is described. Young trophozoites are surrounded by 4 unit membranes, the outer 2 of host origin, the inner 2 the pellicle of the parasite. Each trophozoite contains a vesicular nucleus with a large nucleolus. Its cytoplasm contains ribosomes, but eventually fills with cisternae of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. As the trophozoite matures the area of attachment of the parasite to the host cell becomes vacuolated, with vertical membranous folds. It is apparent that the parasite acquires nourishment from the host cell thru this area of attachment. As schizonts develop, (a) multiple nuclei appear, (b) the endoplasmic reticulum enlarges, (c) the attachment zone increases in area, (d) large vacuoles, which develop as endocytotic vesicles in the attachment area, are found in the cytoplasm and (e) the inner unit membrane of the parasite pellicle is resorbed around the sides of the developing schizont. Following nuclear division, merozoites develop from the schizont by budding. Merozoites have an ultrastructure similar to that described for other coccidia except that no mitochondria, micropores, or subpellicular tubules were observed. Merozoites penetrate the epithelial cell causing invagination of the microvillar membrane and lysing it. No unit membrane is formed between the parasite and the host cell. However, the cell produces one or 2 dense bands adjacent to the parasite attachment area. The macrogamete contains a nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, attachment zone, and large vacuoles. It also contains a variety of granules, some of which are polysaccharide. The immature microgametocyte contains multiple compact nuclei. No mature microgametocytes or zygotes were found.

    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.

    The Influence of Hyaluronidase and Hyaluronidase Substrates on Penetration of Cultured Cells by Eimerian Sporozoites (1970)

    Notes: SYNOPSIS Leighton tube cultures of bovine embryonic kidney cells were inoculated with Eimeria adenoeides sporozoites suspended in media containing either hyaluronidase, hyaluronidase substrates (chondroitin sulfate and hyaluronic acid) or Ficoll. After 1 hr at 41 C, coverslips were removed and cells were fixed and stained. Hyaluronidase (1 and 10 mg/ml) did not increase the number of intracellular sporozoites. Chondroitin sulfate (1 and 10 mg/ml) and hyaluronic acid (1 mg/ml) did not reduce the number of intracellular sporozoites. However, the number was reduced when the media contained either chondroitin sulfate (100 mg/ml) or hyaluronic acid (5 mg/ml), which were quite viscous.Ficoll (117 mg/ml), which produced the same viscosity as 5 mg hyaluronic acid/ml, also reduced the number of intracellular sporozoites. This finding circumstantially indicates that sporozoites may be physically inhibited from entering cells by the high viscosity of the substrates.Biochemical tests, which detected as little as 0.2 μg of known hyaluronidase, failed to detect hyaluronidase activity in excysted intact or fragmented E. adenoeides sporozoites or in sporozoites within E. tenella oocysts.
