Multicystic hydatids have been found in the livers of hares ( Lepus oiostolus) examined from the Qinghai-Tibet plateau of China. In this study, the causative species was definitively identified as Echinococcus multilocularis by mitochondrial DNA sequencing. This is the first confirmation of larval E. multilocularis from hares. The hydatids contained protoscolices, suggesting that the hare may contribute to the transmission of E. multilocularis on the Tibetan plateau.
在中国青藏高原地区检查的野兔(高原兔)肝脏中发现了多囊性包虫。在本研究中,通过线粒体DNA测序明确鉴定出致病物种为多房棘球绦虫。这是首次从野兔中确认多房棘球绦虫幼虫。包虫内含有原头节,这表明野兔可能在青藏高原上促进了多房棘球绦虫的传播。
