Invasion and Early Development of Sarcocystis muris (Apicomplexa,Sarcocystidae) in Tissue Cultures1
Authors:ROLF ENTZEROTH
Abstract:Ultrastructural observations on the invasion and early development of merozoites (bradyzoites) of Sarcocystis muris in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells are presented. Invading merozoites cause the host cell plasmalemma to invaginate; they form a membrane junction (moving junction) and move into the host cell where they are enclosed in a primary parasitophorous vacuole (PV). Within 30–45 min after becoming intracellular, merozoites begin to vacate the newly established primary PV and move, forming a new membrane junction, into a secondary PV. Simultaneously with the movement of the parasite, the contents of dense granules in the apical part of the merozoites are shed by exocytosis into the lumen of the developing secondary PV. A lamella of the endoplasmic reticulum of the host cell becomes attached to the PV membrane, forming a PV limited by three host cell membranes.
