Ligula tapeworm manipulates the physiology and behavior of the infected fish host by means of an array of proteins
Biochemists at the KarRC RAS have elucidated how a widespread parasite – ligula tapeworm – affects the physiology and behavior of cyprinid fishes, particularly bream. The scientists conducted a proteomic analysis of swabs from the parasite-host contact zone to trace their molecular-level interactions. It turns out, Ligula can use a set of proteins to not only suppress the host's immune system and regulate nutrient availability but also to reduce the fish's vigilance, making it easier prey for birds – the definitive hosts in the tapeworm's life cycle.
