Causative agent of human diphyllobothriasis--Diphyllobothrium klebanovskii sp. n

A new cestode species, Diphyllobothrium klebanovskii sp. n., is described on the basis of experimental examination and morphological study of 51 specimens expelled from men in lower part of the Amur river and 18 specimens expelled from golden hamsters. The larval stage of this cestode is plerocercoid of type F, which is localized in muscles of Oncorhynchus keta and O. gorbuscha. D. klebanovskii sp. n. is a marine species, it differs from D. latum and other species of the genus Diphyllobothrium.

Inhibition in the lamprey spinal cord]

Glycine and GABA play the role of inhibitory transmitters in the lamprey spinal cord. The mechanisms of action of both amino acids to the membrane receptors producing the postsynaptic inhibition as well as role and mechanism of GABA action producing the presynaptic inhibition are considered in this paper. The data concerned with morphological substrates of both type inhibitions are discussed.
