Genome analysis of the fatal tapeworm <i>Sparganum proliferum</i> unravels the cryptic lifecycle and mechanisms underlying the aberrant larval proliferation

2020-05-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The cryptic parasite Sparganum proliferum proliferates in humans and invades tissues and organs. Only scattered cases have been reported, but S. proliferum infection is always fatal. However, the S. proliferum phylogeny and lifecycle are still an enigma. <h4>Results</h4> To investigate the phylogenetic relationships between S. proliferum and other cestode species, and to examine the unde...
