BLASTOCYSTIS HOMINIS--STRUCTURE, PHYSIOLOGY AND PATHOGENICITY

过去17年的工作将人芽囊原虫重新分类为 一种原生动物，把它从酵母中移走， 七十年了。 B。人类现在已经牢固地确立了作为 孢子虫是一种肠道寄生虫，是人类和灵长类动物的病原体。 这种原生动物现在是国家和国际利益的主题， 寄生虫学家和医生作为一个原因腹泻的人。治疗是 通常是甲硝唑 还使用甲氧苄啶-磺胺甲恶唑 成功地 超微结构证据证明B.人类的线粒体 典型的线粒体 已经指出，B.人细胞器洗涤 不是一个小洞，因为管状嵴似乎打开了 在外面;使用特殊的技术，我们提供了清晰的照片， 包被外膜。

Work over the past seventeen years has reclassified Blastocystis hominis as a protozoan, removing it from the yeasts where it has languished for seventy years. B. hominis is now firmly established as a member of the Sporozoa, an intestinal parasite and pathogen of man and primates. This protozoan is now a subject of national and international interest to parasitologists and physicians as a cause of diarrhea in man. Treatment is usually with metronidazole. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole is also used successfully. Ultrastructural evidence has proven that B. hominis mitochondria are indeed typical mitochondria. It has been stated that the B. hominis organelle was not a mitochondrion since the tubular cristae appeared to open to the outside; using special techniques, we provided clear photographs of the enveloping outer membrane.
