pubmed:abstractText
The present cytochemical study was undertaken to provide more information on the localization of enzymatic and glycoconjugates in the germinal membrane of the Echinococcus granulosus cyst. The distinctive distribution of binding sites for two lectins (peanut agglutinin and Dilochos biflorus agglutinin) in the germinal membrane are described. An investigation is made of the distribution and specific activity of adenosine triphosphatase, alkaline phosphatase and acid phosphatase. The results suggest that cells located in the deeper layer of the germinal membrane are intrinsic in the cellular differentiation process. The dissimilarities detected in both the enzymatic activity and the lectin-binding receptors could be associated with metacestode development or degeneration.
