Reinfecção pelo Toxoplasma gondii Nicolle & Manceaux, 1909 em camundongos e gatos: estudo experimental

Abstract: (2) e Eny Câmara GUIMARÃES (3) RESUMO A reinfecção pelo Toxoplasma gondii foi estudada, experimentalmente, em 27 camundongos albinos e 25 gatos domésticos. A infecção e a reinfecção foram comprovadas por sinais clínicos, anticorpos sangüíneos à reação de Sabin & Feldman > 1/4, recuperação do parasita e, nos gatos, também pela eliminação de oocistos.Nos camundongos a mortalidade foi de 56%. A primo-infecção por cepa de baixa virulência ou a infecção por cepa mais virulenta, atenuada pela sulfamonometoxina, dera… Show more

“…Felines infected with T. gondii strain AS-28 presented elimination of oocysts from the 3rd to 10th DAI (COSTA et al, 1979), differing from that observed in the present study, in which oocyst excretion by felines started only at the 5th DAI and lasted up to the 13th DAI. The period of oocyst elimination (T. gondii) by felines is very variable and directly correlated with feline infection route, isolate of the parasite (strain), and its evolutionary stage at infection time (JAMRA et al, 1985;DUBEY, 1996DUBEY, , 2006. Lacha et al (1983) and Dubey and Prowell (2012), a feline can excrete more than 1 million oocysts daily during toxoplasmic infection, which was also evidenced in the present study, in which feline P3 eliminated 1,000,500 oocysts at the 9th DAI.…”

“…Oocysts were investigated only in fecal samples collected from animals inoculated with tissue cysts of T. gondii (GI) since the infection due to their ingestion is considered the classic infection route for the studied animal species. The absence of coproparasitological analysis in fecal samples of felines inoculated via parenteral with tachyzoites (GII) occurred because oocyst formation and, consequently, its excretion in feces of cats inoculated by this route and using this parasitic stage rarely occur (JAMRA et al, 1985). Regarding group III, because these felines were proven to be negative for toxoplasmosis, with serological follow-up (IIF), the research on T. gondii oocysts in feces was also not performed.…”

“…O período pré-patente e a persistência máxima de eliminação de oocistos pelos felinos é muito variável. Este período está diretamente correlacionado com a via de infecção do animal, o isolado do parasito e o estágio evolutivo responsável pela infecção (Dubey & Frenkel, 1976;Dubey et al, 1970;Jamra et al, 1985). Segundo Dubey (2006), felinos inoculados com bradizoítos apresentam período pré-patente de eliminação de oocistos menor que os inoculados com cistos teciduais em formação (taquizoítos em fase de transição para bradizoítos) e com taquizoítos, que apresentam, respectivamente, períodos pré-patente intermediário e longo.…”
