Amoebic liver abscess is one of the forms invasive amoebiasis. With untimely treatment, this disease can be complicated by peritonitis, dissemination pathogen with development sepsis. This article presents a clinical case amoebic in patient V., 40 years old results biopsy examination surgical specimens

Branchial surfaces of finfish species contain a microbial layer rich in commensal bacteria which can provide protection through competitive colonization and production antimicrobial products. Upon disturbance or compromise, pathogenic microbiota may opportunistically infiltrate this protective barrier initiate disease. Amoebic gill disease (AGD) is globally significant health condition affectin...

Gill disease of fry and fingerlings associated with extensive mortality in rainbow trout freshwater farms in Denmark have been observed on an increasing number of occasions in the latest years. Clinical symptoms of hyperventilation indicate respiratory distress. Gross-pathological observations of gills show pale nodules and patches on gill filaments. Histological and scanning electron microscop...

There is no consistent evidence of resistance of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) to amoebic gill disease (AGD), despite either a prior history of AGD, passive immunisation or active immunisation. Here, fish were bathed in amoebae antigens from either an avirulent in vitro cultured strain or wild-type Neoparamoeba pemaquidensis and challenged with gill-derived amoebae 27 days post-treatment. Neith...

One of the first critical steps in pathogenesis amoebic gill disease (AGD) farmed salmon is adhesion causative amoeba to host. The current study aimed investigate potential involvement glycan-binding proteins expressed on extracellular surface Neoparamoeba perurans tissue recognition and binding. properties membrane N. carbohydrate binding profile Atlantic gill-derived epithelial cells were ide...
