    Notes: Release of sporozoites from the oocysts of Cryptosporidium baileyi is described from Nomarski interference-contrast microscopy. Just prior to excystation, the four sporozoites became motile and rearranged themselves within the oocyst. The sporozoites were then rapidly expelled through an opening that formed in the oocyst wall, and the residuum was either released or retained within the oocyst. Excysted sporozoites were crescent shaped and measured 5.0–9.0 μm × 1.0–1.6 μm (x̄= 6.8 × 1.1 μm). Excystation occurred when sodium taurocholate or a mixture of trypsin and sodium taurocholate was present in the incubation medium. High levels of excystation occurred at 37° or 40°C, but excystation did not occur at 4°C. The ability of biles from two avian and two mammalian hosts to produce excystation of C. baileyi was also studied. After a 2-h incubation at 40°C, the percentages of excystation were 69.5% in goat bile, 45.0% in pig bile, 33.0% in chicken bile, and 34.5% in turkey bile.

    Notes: First-generation development of Eimeria tuskegeensis was evaluated using light microscopy. Sporozoite-shaped meronts containing a prominent refractile body were observed in small intestinal cells of an experimentally infected cotton rat at 24 h post inoculation (PI). Mature spherical or subspherical meronts containing crescent-shaped merozoites were observed at 36 h PI. Refractile bodies were observed in some of these merozoites. Sporozoite-shaped meronts that were isolated from host intestinal cells and inoculated onto human fetal lung cell cultures penetrated the cultured cells by 2 h PI. A mature, subspherical, first-generation meront containing seven merozoites was observed at 9 h PI in cell culture, indicating that sporozoite-shaped meronts isolated from the host retained their infectivity.

    Caryocyst-Like Host Cell Formation by Caryospora duszynskii (Apicomplexa: Eimeriidae) in Human Fetal Lung Cell Cultures (1988)

    Notes: . Sporozoites of the coccidium, Caryospora duszynskii, penetrated human fetal lung cell cultures but did not undergo asexual or sexual multiplication during a 29-day observation period. Beginning three days postinoculation (PI), infected host cells lost their normal elongated fibroblast-like shape and became ellipsoidal in appearance and resembled caryocysts. These caryocyst-like infected cells were observed from 3 through 29 days PI. Sporozoites remained viable throughout the study as evidenced by motility of extracellular sporozoites in infected human fetal lung cell cultures. Results of this in vitro study suggest that some species of Caryospora may form caryocysts in secondary hosts without undergoing asexual or sexual multiplication in these hosts.

    Pathological Changes and Immunity Associated with Experimental Eimeria vermiformis Infections in Mus musculus (1984)

    Notes: . Pathological changes and immunity induced by Eimeria vermiformis (Ernst, Chobotar & Hammond, 1971) were studied in outbred Swiss mice inoculated with 5000, 10,000, 20,000, or 40,000 oocysts. Cross immunity to E. ferrisi was also studied. In the case of E. vermiformis, mortality was dose dependent; most deaths were observed in the intermediate-dose groups. Most deaths also correlated with peak oocyst output. Histopathologic changes consisted of an early neutrophil and mononuclear cell infiltration in the small intestine. Later, villus atrophy and crypt hyperplasia caused a decrease in the villus-crypt ratio. During the acute phase (8-10 days after inoculation), villus tips were eroded and parasites with necrotic debris filled the cryptal and intestinal lumina. Vacuolar changes were observed in epithelial cells of the small intestine. Neither parasites nor significant pathological changes were observed in extra-intestinal organs. Mice were totally immune to reinfection with E. vermiformis 30 and 105 days after inoculation. Cross immunity was not observed between E. vermiformis and E. ferrisi.

    Development of the Swine Coccidium Eimeria debliecki Douwes, 1921 in Mammalian Cell Cultures (1985)

    Notes: Sporozoites of Eimeria debliecki entered human fetal lung and porcine kidney cells grown in cultures and underwent one merogenous cycle, terminating in the production of second-generation trophozoites. Sporozoites were intracellular 1 h post-inoculation (PI) and developed into sporozoite-shaped meronts at 40 h PI. These meronts, one of which was motile, had from two to ten nuclei. Sporozoite-shaped meronts then developed into elongate or spheroidal meronts with 10 to 24 nuclei by two days PI. Ten to 26 first-generation merozoites were formed by budding from the meront surface. Mature first-generation merozoites were most numerous three days PI. Most meronts had ruptured and released nonmotile merozoites into the culture medium by four days PI. Merozoites that were not released became rounded and developed into second-generation trophozoites. Refractile bodies were present in all developmental stages. No further development was observed five through eight days PI.

    Cryptosporidium andersoni n. sp. (Apicomplexa: Cryptosporiidae) from Cattle, Bos taurus (2000)

    Notes: . A new species of Cryptosporidium is described from the feces of domestic cattle, Bos taurus. Oocysts are structurally similar to those of Cryptosporidium muris described from mice but are larger than those of Cryptosporidium parvum. Oocysts of the new species are ellipsoidal, lack sporocysts, and measure 7.4 ± 5.5 μm (range, 6.0–8.1 by 5.0–6.5 μm). The length to width ratio is 1.35 (range, 1.07–1.50). The colorless oocyst wall is 〈 1 μm thick, lacks a micropyle, and possesses a longitudinal suture at one pole. A polar granule is absent, whereas an oocyst residuum is present. Oocysts were passed fully sporulated and are not infectious to outbred, inbred immunocompetent or immunodeficient mice, chickens or goats. Recent molecular analyses of the rDNA 18S and ITSI regions and heat-shock protein 70 (HSP-70) genes demonstrate this species to be distinct from C. muris infecting rodents. Based on transmission studies and molecular data, we consider the large form of Cryptosporidium infecting the abomasum of cattle to be a new species and have proposed the name Cryptosporidium andersoni n. sp. for this parasite.

    Clinical and histologic observations of actively induced resistance toEimeria ferrisi levine and ivens, 1965 (Protozoa: Eimeriidae) in the mouse (Mus musculus) (1979)

    Notes: Summary Actively induced resistance toEimeria ferrisi was studied clinically and histologically inMus musculus. Results indicated that a partial resistance to challenge was obtained. Initially infected animals had severe symptoms of coccidiosis but the symptoms diminished as the infections progressed. Previously infected mice had only slight symptoms of infection when challenged. Challenge doses produced severe coccidiosis in the non-immune controls although none died. Six mice died at peak patency during the immunizing inoculations. Histologic examination indicated that parasite numbers were reduced in resistant animals. The reduction appeared greatest during late sexual development. Tissues from resistant animals showed little evidence of damage and appeared to contain an increased amount of lymphoid tissue. Tissues from non-immunized mice killed after challenge were heavily infected and contained extruded blood, mucous, and cellular debris in the gut lumen. Considerable destruction of host epithelial cells occurred. The observations are discussed and compared to other coccidial immunity studies.
