| restoration of virulence to rat of axenically grown entamoeba histolytica by cholesterol and hamster liver passage. | a virulent strain of entamoeba histolytica (nih-200) from a symptomatic human case, cultured in vitro for more than three years, was unable to infect rat caecum or hamster liver. when grown with a mixed bacterial flora, it infected rat caecum but did not produce ulceration. after passaging amoebae growing with bacteria in hamster liver, amoebic hepatic lesions were regularly produced. the amoebae from liver lesions produced ulceration in the caeca of rats. expoxure to cholesterol of amoebae grow ... | 1976 | 187128 |

| freeze-etching observations of trophozoites of pathogenic entamoeba histolytica. | pathogenic entamoeba histolytica trophozoites were studied by the freeze-etching (fe) technique of electron microscopy. surface replicas of intact cell membranes were highly convoluted with numerous invaginations, evaginations, and undulations. sperical depressions and elevations varying from 0.5 mu to 1.0 mu in diameter were commonly present on the external cell membrane and appeared to represent an extracellular secretory mechanism of trophozoites. cleaved surfaces of amebae exhibited a granul ... | 1976 | 176837 |

| the value of amoebic serology in an area of low endemicity. | one hundred sera from army patients who had had amoebiasis in the past and 113 sera from coloured immigrants attending a venereal diseases clinic were examined by four serological techniques. the indirect haemagglutination and the latex agglutination tests showed almost complete correlation; they are useful epidemiological tools but too sensitive and the antibodies on which they depend are too persistent for clinical use. the indirect fluorescent antibody test is a good clinical screening test, ... | 1976 | 178079 |
| in vitro sensitivity of entamoeba histolytica to furazolidone and iodochlorhydroxyquin, separate and combined. | entamoeba histolytica trophozoites isolated in robinson's medium from faeces containing cysts, transported from india, have been tested in vitro against the drugs furazolidone, iodochlorhydroxyquin, and both drugs combined as dependal. results show the levels at which drug action is significant and that interaction between the drugs occurs at two concentrations. | 1976 | 178080 |
| the rhabdoviruses of entamoeba histolytica and entamoeba invadens. | rhabdoviruses have been described in plants, arthropods and vertebrates including man. members of the group are of agricultural, veterinary and medical importance. the presence of a rhabdovirus in entamoeba histolytica and entamoeba invadens is the first record of their existence within protozoa. the morphology of this virus is described and its significance discussed, in relation to a possible lysogenic state and pathogenecity of entamoeba species. | 1976 | 178279 |
| 6-phosphofructokinase (pyrophosphate). properties of the enzyme from entamoeba histolytica and its reaction mechanism. | the inorganic pyrophosphate-requiring 6-phosphofructokinase of entamoeba histolytica has been further investigated. the molecular weight of the enzyme is approximately 83,000 and its isoelectric point occurs at ph 5.8 to 6.0. the divalent cation requirement for reaction was explored. in the direction of fructose 6-phosphate formation half-maximal rate required 500 mum magnesium ion; in the direction of fructose bisphosphate formation 8 mum magnesium ion sufficed. atp, ppi, polyphosphate, acetyl ... | 1976 | 178659 |

| partial purification and some properties of a neutral sulfhydryl and an acid proteinase from entamoeba histolytica. | the partial purification of two intracellular proteinases from the protozoan parasite entamoeba histolytica is reported. one of these enzymes is an acid proteinase exhibiting maximum activity at ph 3.5 (hemoglobin substrate), is little affected by a range of inhibitors or activators, and is presumed to be similar to cathepsin d. also present is a neutral proteinase exhibiting optimum activity at ph 6.0 (azocasein) but only poorly hydrolyzing either hemoglobin or serum albumen. this latter enzyme ... | 1977 | 16691 |

| amebiasis. an increasing problem among homosexuals in new york city. | during a five-year period at the new york hospital, entamoeba histolytica was identified in the stools of 20 men who had not traveled outside the new york area. all of the patients were found subsequently to homosexual. during this same period amebiasis was diagnosed in 30 men who had traveled; only two were homosexual. of ten patients with e histolytica infection seen during the first year of this study, none were homosexual whereas eight of 11 patients in the fifth year were homosexual, sugges ... | 1977 | 197276 |
| venereal transmission of enteric pathogens in male homosexuals. two case reports. | in two cases there was simultaneous or sequential occurrence of amebiasis, shigellosis, and giardiasis in male homosexuals. enteric pathogens may, under the proper conditions, be venereally transmitted. in particular, the sexual practices of male homosexuals, most significantly, oral-anal contact, appear to provide the necesseary link for transmission. evidence suggests that this is a growing problem. | 1977 | 197277 |
