histochemistry of gland cells of eurytrema pancreaticum cercariae.the cercariae of eurytrema pancreaticum (janson, 1889) possess four types of gland cells - proper cystogenic, penetration, ventral and dorsal gland cells. the secretion of ventral and dorsal gland cells is released into the tegument. the proper cystogenic gland cells are the largest and their contents serve for the formation of the cyst wall of metacercariae in the second intermediate host. the secretion of proper cystogenic gland cells contains besides neutral mucosubstances also acid mucosubst ...1979161544

[glycolysis in a pancreatic parasite of cattle, the trematode eurytrema pancreaticum].phosphoenol pyruvate carboxykinase activity in cytosol of e. pancreaticum is approximately 10 times higher than pyruvate kinase activity. malate dehydrogenase converts oxaloacetate to malate 27 times more actively than malate to oxaloacetate. the main end product of the glycolysis is presented by succinate. probably, the most important glycolytic pathway in the trematode investigated is the fixation of co2 to phosphoenol pyruvate to produce oxaloacetate.1978735591
