Clonorchiasis--a historical review of contributions of Japanese parasitologists.

Abstract:

:In the early stage of research on Clonorchis and clonorchiasis, Japanese parasitologists made a tremendous contribution on the elucidation of the life cycle of this parasite and on the epidemiology of the disease. Harujiro Kobayashi first identified cyprinoid fish as the second intermediate hosts for Clonorchis sinensis in 1912, Subsequently Parafossarulus snails were identified as the first intermediate host by Masatomo Muto in 1918. Kenso Ishisaka recorded the first human case of clonorchiasis in Japan in 1877, and two Japanese clinicians, Shigeru Matsumoto and Tsukasa Ohi, recorded the endemic nature of this disease in Korea and Taiwan respectively, in the same year, 1915.

  • Use of a recombinant Clonorchis sinensis pore-forming peptide, clonorin, for serological diagnosis of clonorchiasis.

    abstract::A recombinant pore-forming peptide of Clonorchis sinensis, clonorin, was evaluated for serodiagnostic reagent of clonorchiasis by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay detecting IgG antibody. Recombinant clonorin showed 100% specificity and low sensitivity for sera of human clonorchiasis. In contrast, C. sinensis crude an...
