| comparative pathogenesis of eosinophilic meningitis caused by angiostrongylus mackerrasae and angiostrongylus cantonensis in murine and guinea pig models of human infection. | this study investigated comparatively the pathogenicity of experimental infection of mice and guinea pigs, with angiostrongylus mackerrasae and the closely related species a. cantonensis. time course analyses showed that a. mackerrasae causes eosinophilic meningitis in these hosts, which suggests that the species has the potential to cause meningitis in humans and domestic animals. both a. mackerrasae and the genetically similar a. cantonensis caused eosinophilic meningitis in mice at two time p ... | 2016 | 27278827 |
| the mitochondrial genome of angiostrongylus mackerrasae as a basis for molecular, epidemiological and population genetic studies. | angiostrongylus mackerrasae is a metastrongyloid nematode endemic to australia, where it infects the native bush rat, rattus fuscipes. this lungworm has an identical life cycle to that of angiostrongylus cantonensis, a leading cause of eosinophilic meningitis in humans. the ability of a. mackerrasae to infect non-rodent hosts, specifically the black flying fox, raises concerns as to its zoonotic potential. to date, data on the taxonomy, epidemiology and population genetics of a. mackerrasae are ... | 2015 | 26381738 |
| the prevalence of angiostrongylus cantonensis/mackerrasae complex in molluscs from the sydney region. | angiostrongylus cantonensis and angiostrongylus mackerrasae are metastrongyloid nematodes that infect various rat species. terrestrial and aquatic molluscs are intermediate hosts of these worms while humans and dogs are accidental hosts. angiostrongylus cantonensis is the major cause of angiostrongyliasis, a disease characterised by eosinophilic meningitis. although both a. cantonensis and a. mackerrasae are found in australia, a. cantonensis appears to account for most infections in humans and ... | 2015 | 26000568 |
| emergence of neural angiostrongyliasis in eastern australia. | despite an apparent increase in cases of angiostrongyliasis in humans and animals in australia, the epidemiology of infection with the two species of angiostrongylus that co-exist in this country, namely a. cantonensis and a. mackerrasae, is poorly understood. this knowledge gap is particularly important with respect to a. mackerrasae, a species evidently native to australia, as its ability to cause disease in humans is unknown. likewise, there is little information on the roles of native and in ... | 2015 | 25793473 |

| angiostrongylus mackerrasae and a. cantonensis (nematoda: metastrongyloidea) belong to same genetic lineage: evidence from mitochondrial protein-coding genes. | angiostrongylus mackerrasae is a parasitic nematode of rats found in australia. when first reported, it was referred to as a. cantonensis. recent molecular studies, including the mitochondrial genome, indicate that it is highly similar to a. cantonensis. these studies did not include a. malaysiensis, another member of the a. cantonensis species complex, for comparison. the present study examined the genetic distance and phylogenetic relationship between the component taxa (a. cantonensis, a. mac ... | 2017 | 28693647 |

| neuro-angiostrongyliasis: unresolved issues. | angiostrongylus cantonensis, the rat lungworm, probably evolved with its hosts, members of the genus rattus and closely related species, in south-east asia. since its first discovery in rats in china and in a case of human infection in taiwan, the parasite has been found to infect humans and other mammals across a wide and ever-increasing territory, which now encompasses much of south-east asia, melanesia, polynesia and eastern australia. it has also established a foothold in africa, india, the ... | 2000 | 11113256 |
