Ammonia-induced cellular and immunological changes in juvenile Cyprinus carpio infected with the blood fluke Sanguinicola inermis.

abstract：:This study describes morphological changes during capsule formation of Trichinella spiralis with emphasis on nuclei within the capsule. The nuclei of the pre-existing muscle cell may become hypertrophied or degrade soon after the entrance of newborn larvae. Cytoplasm associated with these hypertrophied nuclei was baso...
