2021, Parasitology InternationalCitation Excerpt :Moreover, BAs can also help parasite survival in vitro [5]. For tapeworms, some studies have shown that host bile plays a crucial role in adult worm development and sexual bidirectional development of Echinococcus granulosus [6,7]. Host BAs are also able to induce the larvae movement from coiling to serpentine, promote scolex evagination, and uncover hooks/four suckers on the top of scolex for Taenia tapeworms [8].

2017, Advances in ParasitologyCitation Excerpt :Their function may be that of a buffering system or a source of inorganic ions, CO2 and phosphates (Smyth, 1969), but their transitory nature suggests an association with cell death (Thompson, 1995) and recently they have been shown to be associated with autophagy and catabolic processes (Loos et al., 2014). Within 3–4 days after infection, the lateral excretory canals of the young worm are clearly evident and by the end of the first week a posterior excretory bladder is seen (Smyth and Davies, 1974a). The excretory system of Echinococcus, like all other cestodes, is based on the platyhelminth protonephridial system with the lateral excretory canals (Fig. 2) acting as collecting ducts for numerous flame cells distributed throughout the parenchyma.
