A series of development stages (I–XI) have been devised to describe the development of the cyst wall of the metacestode of Hymenolepis diminuta. The cyst wall possesses tegumentary, muscular, fibrous and inner cyst tissues, the developmental rates and differentiation patterns of which are not identical. The tegumentary tissue differentiates posteriorly. Its microvillus-bearing distal cytoplasm remains simple until scolex retraction, after which rapid increase in depth followed by vacuolation occurs and basal membrane infoldings surround Phase 3 fibrogenesis fibrils. Senescence, which also affects the tegumentary cytons, then ensues. The muscle system development is posteriad and maturation, completed before scolex retraction, is followed by myocyton senescence. Posteriorly differentiated fibroblasts commence Phase 1 fibrogenesis after scolex retraction and the primary fibrous zone is fully established within approximately 6 days. Phase 2 and 3 fibrogenesis develop centrifugally, the fibrils of Phase 2 surrounding the tegumentary cytons and myocytons prior to their senescence, and those of Phase 3 lying more peripherally. The inner cyst tissue, established posteriorly, differentiates anteriorly, centripetally and early, the penultimate stage commencing just before scolex retraction, about 6 days after which the final maturation junctional complexes start development. Neither in vitro excystment nor infectivity of the definitive host can be satisfactorily achieved before the initial development of the primary fibrous zone. This may play a skeletal role during excystment, and is shown to be unaffected by the digestive enzymes which cause loss of cytoplasmic integrity in the outer regions of the cyst.

The syncytium of the scolex and neck regions of Caryophyllaeus laticeps differs from that of the remainder of the body in a number of ways. The microtriches have short shafts and lamellated spines and the surface cytoplasm is characterized by numerous elongated granules, occasional lipid-like bodies and, in the scolex region, is penetrated by ducts from the frontal glands. The elongated granules arise from the tegumentary neck cells and pass into the syncytium via narrow cell processes possessing extensions of the neck cell microtubule system. The granules have a peripheral sub-structure of regularly spaced electron-lucent areas. Evidence suggests that the granular material becomes more diffuse before extrusion. The spherical, lipid-like bodies also arise from the neck cells, but extrusion from the syncytium was not observed. Homology of the neck cells with the tegumentary cells of the rest of the body is discussed. The frontal glands are restricted to the scolex apex and secrete spherical or sub-spherical, homogeneous granules. The cells, with microtubule-lined ducts, open to the surface via pores which possess an electron-dense ring at which point the microtubule system terminates. Sensory bulbs are also present and will be described in a subsequent communication. The inter-relationships of the gland distribution, scolex morphology and host pathology are discussed.

Protoscoleces of Echinococcus granulosus were incubated in a 10 μm solution of monensin and their viability and the ultrastructure of their tegument were monitored over a 36 h period. The earliest effects of the lonophore, apparent within 15 min, involved a degree of cisternal swelling of the tegumentary Golgi complexes. Swelling became more pronounced with time and cytons eventually contained numerous large electron-lucent vesicles. Residual bodies indicative of autophagy were observed in the cytons and distal cytoplasm from 1 h onwards. All movement of protoscoleces ceased after 1 h and the surface of the soma subsequently became folded, possibly suggesting spastic paralysis. Later, vacuoles and large cytoplasmic blebs were observed in the distal cytoplasm and viability dropped rapidly after 12 h. All protoscoleces were dead at 36 h. The potential of monensin as an in vivo protoscolicidal agent is discussed.

The entire surface of the early developmental stages of the cysticercoid of Hymenolepis diminuta bears microvilli. Posteriad differentiation produces a microthrix-bearing surface on the presumptive scolex region, commencing before scolex retraction in cysticercoids in Tenebrio molitor kept at 26°C. During sucker development, the scolex syncytial cytoplasm possesses electron-dense discoidal bodies, aligned parallel to the surface. They become associated with the apical membrane, domes are formed and electron-dense spine-like profiles become apparent. Elevation on short shafts follows, and multilaminate baseplates are then discernible. Fewer microvilli are now present and vesicles with asymmetric membranes (denser inner leaflet) occur within the syncytial cytoplasm. Before scolex retraction, this differentiation extends to the level of the suckers; thus the neck, which becomes reflected on retraction, still possesses only microvilli. After retraction, differentiation proceeds rapidly with increased growth of existing microtriches, discoidal bodies possibly contributing to the shaft support material; the reflected neck develops microtriches and the microvilli are shed into the scolex retraction cavity. The ‘asymmetric’ vesicles increase numerically, some fusing with the apical membrane and releasing their contents. Concurrently, apical membrane asymmetry (denser outer leaflet) becomes apparent. The adult-type surface is formed by 3 days post-scolex retraction, coinciding with the earliest time that the metacestode is infective to the final host.

The germinal layer of sterile 9-month-old murine peritoneal cysts of Echinococcus granulosus equinus shows interrelated variation in depth, tissue integrity, metabolic reserves and the number of autophagic lamellar bodies present. These features are similar in large and medium-sized cysts from the same host, whether occurring singly or within cyst masses. Deep germinal layers (> 16 μm) are lipid- and glycogen-rich and possess numerous autophagic vacuoles with 6 nm period lamellar stacks asymmetrically disposed peripherally; shallow layers (< 12 μm), with indications of degeneration, have depleted metabolic reserves and fewer lamellar bodies. These bodies are formed by smooth endoplasmic reticulum encirclement of small glycogen masses followed by further sequestration, and eventually definition of glycogen particles may be lost. Autophagy of mitochondria and cytoplasmic vesicles also occurs. The presence of lysosomal enzymes within the layer suggests autolysosomal compartmentalization of excess substrate and effete material. Mucopolysaccharide bodies, containing material similar to that exocytosed to form the laminated layer matrix, occur and are formed from fusion and autophagy of Golgi-derived vesicles. These bodies may also develop peripheral 6 nm period lamellar stacks, but of limited depth. Mucopolysaccharide bodies are the dominant feature of the germinal layer of very small cyst-mass cysts in which laminated layer production is considered to be arrested. They thus represent a repository for the unreleased mucopolysaccharide material.

The inner cyst tissue development is anteriad and centripetal. The cells produce lamellar extensions which assume parallel alignment. The first contact points (approximately 4 days post-infection) establish heptalaminar (gap) junctions. Lamellar attenuation results in a decreased intercellular space, and at 5–6 days pentalaminar junctions (with fused outer plasmalemma leaflets to give an electron-dense, approximately 3 nm wide O–O line) occur. This is the first maturation (Ml) stage. The O–O lines are permeable to lanthanum, and evidence of their possible transformation from heptalaminar junctions is presented. Continued lamellar attenuation, associated with scolex retraction and subsequent growth, results in cytoplasmic occlusion and contact between the inner leaflets of the same lamella. The resultant electron-dense I–I line is approximately 3 nm wide; the O–O line is now less electron-dense and thinner (approximately 2 nm). This final maturation (M2) stage, resembling vertebrate myelin, occurs over limited areas; closely adjacent regions either remaining at the M1 stage, or not displaying junctional complexes. Since in vivo and in vitro excystment can occur before the M2 stage, the inner cyst tissue is not considered to be protective against the definitive host. That the tissue may function in limiting nutrient flow, thus regulating the size of the presumptive adult, is discussed.

Prior to scolex-retraction, the tegumentary syncytial cytoplasm of the presumptive rostellar region of Hymenolepis diminuta (from Tenebrio molitor kept at 26 °C) is indistinguishable from that of the rest of the cysticercoid. At 1 day after scolex-retraction differentiation of the rostellum has commenced, the tegumentary cytoplasm containing a small number of membrane-bound, ovoid, electron-dense granules which are absent from all other tegumentary regions of the metacestode. By 3 days after scolex-withdrawal there is a substantial increase in the number of ovoid granules within the rostellar tegumentary syncytium and the Golgi systems of the rostellar cytons are highly secretory. At this stage, although the cyst wall tissues are not fully developed, the metacestode is infective. This early and rapid development of the rostellar region presumably enables the ‘adult’ condition to be readily attained. In older metacestodes there is a progressive accumulation of ovoid granules within the rostellar tegumentary cytoplasm, accompanied by a decrease within the rostellar cytons. At 23 days following scolex-retraction the rostellar syncytium has the appearance of that of the adult tapeworm. The rostellar cytons also produce tegumentary discs and vesicles and are therefore regarded as homologous to the other tegumentary cytons of the metacestode.

The microfibrillate component of the laminated layer of Echinococcus granulosus equinus contains, except for the zone adjacent to the germinal layer, aggregates of electron-dense bodies displaying a sub-structure of electron-lucent spheres. The tegumentary syncytial cytoplasm contains randomly distributed electron-dense granules, many occurring near the apical plasmalemma, although exocytosis was rarely seen. Granules, similar in size and sub-structure to the bodies of the aggregates, also occur in the internuncial connexions and tegumentary cytons, suggesting that they may be produced in the cytons and released into the laminated layer via the internuncial connexions and tegumentary cytoplasm. Cysts incubated for 0·5–2·5 h in serum- and non-serum-containing media showed differences from non-incubated cysts. The distal half of the syncytium contained a progressive increase in the number of granules (distal:proximal 1·9:1 at 2·5 h; cf. 1:1 in non-incubated cysts), and exocytosis of granules into the laminated layer adjacent to the cyst had occurred. This cannot be attributed wholly to serum proteins. Cysts incubated for 21 h appeared ‘normal’, suggesting re-establishment of an equilibrium. Since the matrix of the laminated layer is considered homologous to the glycocalyx of other cestodes, the possible protective role played by the granules/bodies, characteristic of Echinococcus spp., is discussed.

Peritoneal hydatids of Echinococcus granulosus equinus of 9 months standing in BALB/c mice occurred as free cysts or cysts within cyst masses. Both showed wide variation in size and in host tissue response, and all had a well-developed laminated layer separating the host tissue response from the germinal layer. In the smallest cyst-mass cysts the host tissue response was present as remnants of the initial cellular attack involving eosinophils. Slightly larger cyst-mass cysts possessed a primary macrophage invasion which phagocytosed the remnants of the initial attack and also, though to little effect, the laminated layer material. In the largest cyst-mass cysts a second macrophage invasion, of monocyte origin, had commenced and transformation stages of these cells to macrophages were observed. No fibroblasts surrounded individual cyst-mass cysts but they were present around the cyst mass, encapsulating it and possibly preventing further host cell invasion. Thus, the host tissue response around individual cyst-mass cysts remained ‘preserved’ at an early stage such as existed at the time of encapsulation. Small free cysts showed a primary macrophage invasion and transformation stages of cells of a secondary infiltration of peritoneal origin. Peripheral to the macrophages were fibroblasts demonstrating limited fibrinogenesis, and each cyst was surrounded by a layer of mesothelial cells. Large free cysts, also delimited by a mesothelial layer, possessed peripheral connective tissue, a deep fibrous layer and a monolayer of very compressed macrophages lying adjacent to the laminated layer. It is emphasized that an understanding of the host tissue response in cysts of different sizes and from different locations is an essential pre-requisite for the design of experimental studies.

A variety of morphological forms developed during monophasic culture of ruptured brood capsules of equine Echinococcus granulosus. Attached to some protoscoleces were small posterior bladders, with a surface ultrastructure of truncated microtriches, and these never developed a laminated layer. In contrast, small free vesicles of similar size and ultrastructure, but devoid of an attached protoscolex, produced a layer by 20–30 days. The surface ultrastructure of both these forms is similar to that of the protoscolex attachment stalk and the brood capsule lining, and posterior bladders and small free vesicles are considered to be derived from portions of the stalk±part of the brood capsule lining retained at protoscolex release. Also present were large vesicles interpreted from their size and surface anatomy as ruptured, everted brood capsules. When devoid of attached protosoleces these formed cysts each with a laminated layer, whereas similar vesicles with several attached protoscoleces did not develop a layer, or only very occasionally after 70 or more days. In contrast, a few large vesicles with a single attached protoscolex produced a laminated layer. The possibility that protoscolex attachment to stalk remnants or brood capsules inhibits the cystic development of these structures is discussed.

Praziquantel (500 mg/kg) administered orally to BALB/c mice with secondary equine E. granulosus daily for 21, 30 or 30 + 30 days without the drug resulted in the majority of cysts, using bench criteria of turgidity and eosin exclusion, being assessed as ‘alive’. Ultrastructural examination of 54 of these ‘alive’ cysts did not support this conclusion. They all showed increased vesiculation of the germinal layer leading, in many, to the loss of its integrity. Increased mitochondrial numbers occurred frequently. The longer drug treatments appeared to have greater effects on the germinal layer of ‘alive’ cysts and there was no detectable re-establishment of structural organization within 30 days after drug withdrawal. Subjectively, there was no substantial difference between cysts from 4-month and 9-month infections or between affected peritoneal and hepatic cysts. Tissue from collapsed cysts was necrotic. Peak serum levels of praziquantel (6430–6136 μg/l) occurred 5–10 min after drug administration (500 mg/kg) and dropped rapidly to less than 10 μg/l at 3 h. In an in vitro study at praziquantel concentrations of 1000 and 5000 μg/l over a 10-day period, most cysts were judged ‘alive’ by bench criteria but showed ultrastructurally a time- and concentration-dependent loss of integrity identical to that seen in vivo. Turgidity and eosin exclusion therefore underestimate the effect of praziquantel and the results indicate that in vitro experiments can fulfil a legitimate preliminary role in a hydatid chemotherapy programme.

Changes in the tegumentary projections of protoscoleces of Echinococcus granulosus, developing within brood capsules, were examined at the ultrastructural level. The original scant covering of spineless, truncated microtriches was supplemented by a population of microvilli covering the entire surface of protoscoleces in the early stages of formation. As differentiation continued, rostellar hooks were formed by enlargement of single large (T 1) microtriches, and normal spined microtriches were produced on the sucker region. These were formed in two ways: by addition of spine material to the truncated microtriches, and de novo followed by up-lifting from the tegumentary surface. A second type of large microthrix (T2) was present in a band immediately below the developing hooks. These microtriches appeared to be formed from a fusion of existing microtriches, but were subsequently lost prior to scolex invagination. The microvilli were also shed from both the sucker and soma regions, to be replaced by microtriches and small blunt elevations respectively.

The Department of Defense (DoD) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) requested that the National Research Council's National Materials Advisory Board conduct a study to assess the current status of microwave processing technology, identify applications of microwave technology where resulting properties are unique or enhanced relative to conventional processing or where significant cost, energy or space savings can be realized, and to recommend future activities in microwave processing. A committee was established to perform the study and report on their findings. This paper is a summary developed from the committee's report, Microwave Processing of Materials (NMAB Report Number 473, Copyright 1994 by the National Academy of Sciences, National Academy Press, Washington, DC).
