Abstract | Investigation of co-infection by different helminths in snails can provide essential information about the biology of parasites co-existence under natural conditions. This study aimed to investigate the reproductive and histological changes of Biomphalaria glabrata experimentally co-infected with Echinostoma paraensei and Angiostrongylus cantonensis. Five groups of snails i.e. uninfected, with single and double infections, either E. paraensei first (E + A) or A. cantonensis first (A + E) were followed; three times a week during four weeks the numbers of egg masses, eggs and hatched snails were counted. Histological analysis of the ovotestis and albumen gland was performed after four weeks. The number of egg masses/snail, eggs/snail and hatched snails showed significative differences comparing the control group to all infected groups, especially in group E + A, with the majority of values of parameters analyzed lower than 50% of those observed for control snails. In addition, the mortality was higher in the group E + A than to control group. The histological analysis showed that presence of both parasites in the reproductive organs was associated with tissue damages. | pt_BR |
