Angiostrongylus vasorum , также известный как французский сердечный червя , является видом паразитной нематоды в семействе Metastrongylidae . Это вызывает заболевание собачьего ангиостронгилоза у собак. Это не зооноз , то есть его нельзя передавать людям.
Не так много известно о биологии этого вида. [ 2 ]
Описание
[ редактировать ]Эти нематодные черви маленькие и розоватые цвета. [ 3 ] Длина 14,0–20,5 мм. [ 3 ] Ширина составляет 0,170-0,306 мм. [ 3 ]
У женщин есть полюс парикмахеров.
Жизненный цикл
[ редактировать ]
Жизненный цикл начинается, когда личинки L3 принимают участие окончательного хозяина, в первую очередь лисой или собакой. Это может быть посредством употребления в употреблении моллюсков (промежуточных хозяев), лягушек (патентенных хозяев) или от пищи, инфицированной слизью от слизняков или улиток. Личинки L3 мигрируют в брыжеечные лимфатические узлы и литят до L4 и L5. Личинки L5 мигрируют через циркуляцию портала и через печень, и взрослые оказываются в легочной артерии или правой стороне сердца.
The adults then mate and produce eggs. The eggs move to the alveolar capillaries via the circulation and hatch to L1 larvae. The L1 larvae burrow though the alveolar and are then coughed up and swallowed. L1 larvae are therefore passed in the feces of infected canids.
The L1 larvae infect intermediate hosts (primarily slugs and snails) by penetrating the foot of the mollusc and develop to L3 within.
Adult worms can live for 2 years. The pre-patent period is 6–10 weeks.
Pathology and diagnosis
[edit]Pathology is from both the adult worms, eggs and larvae.
Cardio-respiratory signs are one clinical symptom. Chronic, coughing, exercise intolerance, dyspnea and tachypnea in young dogs is due to blood vessels being blocked by adults, eggs and larvae.
The parasite also causes coagulopathies. Hematomas and prolonged bleeding are as a result of thrombocytopenia (a decrease in the number of platelets in the blood). Clotting factors V and VIII are also reduced. Hypochromic anemia is another symptom, also used in diagnosis and is due to the parasite interfering with hemoglobin synthesis.
Angiostrongylus vasorum also causes neurological damage. These present as ataxia, paresis, loss of vision, behavioral changes and seizures. All these symptoms are as a direct result of CNS hemorrhages.
Diagnosis is made from a combination of clinical signs and tests.
Imaging can show lung lesions in the peripheral lobes. Blood tests, showing eosinophillia, poor clotting ability and speed as well as hypochromic anemia all point towards a diagnosis. Some cases may also have hypercalcemia the cause of this unknown but may relate to granulomatous inflammation and macrophage production of alpha 1 hydroxylase. Fecal examination using the Baerman technique are unreliable, as egg output is irregular and the pre-patent period of the parasite is relatively long. However this test is more sensitive than a fecal smear examination. Multiple samples help reduce the risk of a false negative but should not be relied upon.
Post mortem examination can also reveal the causative agent to be Angiosrongylus vasorum. Again, lung lesions (looking for mottled lungs) are seen. Subcutaneous hematomas and enlarged blood vessels are common. Another sign is endocarditis of the right side of the heart and the tricuspid valve.
Hosts
[edit]The natural intermediate hosts of Angiostrongylus vasorum are land slugs, land snails and freshwater snails.[4] Angiostrongylus vasorum shows little host specificity in its intermediate host.[5]
- Arion ater - natural host[3]
Natural definitive hosts are domestic dogs[4] and various other carnivores include:[6]
- red fox Vulpes vulpes[7]
- pampas fox Pseudalopex gymnocerus
- hoary fox Pseudalopex vetulus
- crab-eating fox Dusicyon thous
- wolf Canis lupus
- coyote Canis latrans
- African desert fox Fennecus zerda[3]
- European badger Meles meles[8]
Angiostrongylus vasorum lives in the right ventricle of the heart and the pulmonary artery.[4] The infection can be fatal in dogs.[7]
Natural paratenic hosts can be frogs, lizards, mice, rats.[4]
Experimental intermediate hosts of Angiostrongylus vasorum include:
- Biomphalaria glabrata - (experimental)[4]
- Biomphalaria tenagophila - (experimental)[9]
Other known experimental hosts include:[3]
- slugs: Arion vulgaris (referred as Arion lusitanicus), Arion hortensis, Deroceras reticulatum, Limax flavus, Laevicaulis alte.
- land snails: Achatina fulica, Arianta arbustorum, Bradybaena similaris, Cepaea nemoralis, Cochlodina laminata, Eceparypha physana, Helix pomatia, Cornu aspersum, Prosopeas javanicum, Subulina octona, Succinea putris.
- freshwater snails: Biomphalaria pfeifferi, Physa sp.
Experimental definitive hosts of Angiostrongylus vasorum include:
- jackal Canis aureus[3]
- Arvicanthis niloticus, an African rat[3]
Distribution
[edit]The native area (enzootic) of Angiostrongylus vasorum is Western Europe (United Kingdom, Ireland, France, Spain).[4][7]
Up to 23% of foxes are infected in southeast England. 5% of patent infected dogs are clinically healthy. There is a correlation between high fox incidence and domestic dog incidence, leading to the assumption that the fox is an important wildlife reservoir of this parasite.[citation needed]
Other known areas include
- * Europe: Denmark,[10] Germany, Italy, Switzerland[7] and Portugal[6]
- Africa: Uganda[7]
- Asia: Turkey and countries of the former USSR[7]
- Northern America: Canada (Newfoundland[7]), the United States[4]
Larvae of the first stage were found in Australia,[4] Argentina and Greece.[3]
The area where this species is found is expanding.[2]
It has also been reported from South America: Brazil and Colombia,[7] but molecular analysis revealed that Angiostrongylus vasorum from Brazil has a different genotype.[6] Thus it is possible that it is a different species in Brazil and in elsewhere in South America.[6]
Treatment and prevention
[edit]In Europe imidacloprid 10%/moxidectin 2.5% is approved for treatment and prevention of Angiostrongylus vasorum in dogs. For treatment of infected dogs, a single dose should be administered. A further veterinary examination 30 days after treatment is recommended as some animals may require a second treatment. In endemic areas, monthly application will prevent angiostrongylosis and patent infection with Angiostrongylus vasorum.[11]
