Kobaylarda Deneysel Toxoplasma gondii Enfeksiyonunda Patolojik Bulgular

Öz

Bu çalışmada, 42 adet erkek kobayda, farklı yollarla Toxoplasma gondii Ankara suşu takizoitleri verilerek deneysel toksoplazmozis oluşturuldu. Her grupta 12 ko bay olacak şekilde; intravenöz (grup 1 ), intraperitoneal (grup 2) ve intradermal (grup 3) yollarla enfekte edilen üç deney grubu oluşturuldu. Ayrıca her bir deney grubu için ikişer kobay kontrol (grup 4) olarak ayrıldı. İnokülasyon sonrası belirlenen günlerde örenazileri yapılan kabaylardan alınan sistemik doku örnekleri histopatolojik ve elektron mikroskobik yönden incelendi. Enfeksiyonda şekillenen lezyonlar etkeni n veriliş yoluna göre farklılık gösterdi. Makroskobik olarak, grup 1 'de yoğun olarak akciğerler, karaciğer ve böbrek üstü bezlerinde 1-2 mm büyüklüğünde çok sayıda boz-beyaz renkli odaklar şekillendi. Grup 2'de, karın boşluğunda değişen miktarlarda fıbrinli eksudatla birlikte organların yüzeyinin fıbrinle kaplandığı, grup 3'te ise deri inakülasyon bölgesinde 1.5-2.0 cm çapında kanama ve nekrozlar ile bölgesel lenf düğümlerinde nekrozlara rastlandı. Mikroskobik olarak; grup 1 'de akciğer, karaciğer, dalak ve böbrek üstü bezlerinde T. gondii takizoit fonnlarının bulunduğu multifokal pıhtılaşma nekrozları gözlendi. Grup 2'de karaciğer, dalak, bağırsak ve böbreklerin serozalarından başlayarak parankimine doğru ilerleme gösteren nekrozlar şekillendi ve çok sayıda serbest takizoit grupları gözlendi. Grup 3'te ise deri, lenf düğümleri, karaciğer, beyin ve akciğerde takizoitlerin de bulunduğu granülomatöz lezyonlar şekillendi. İnokülasyon sonrası aradan geçen süreyle doğru orantılı olarak, lezyonların organlardaki yaydışında artış görüldü. Elektron mikroskobik incelemede; hücre dışında serbest takizoitlerle birlikte dokularda yoğun nekroz dikkati çekti. Hücre içi takizoitlere ise çoğunlukla makrofaj sitoplaznıalarında rastlandı ve endozoit fom1ları da gözlendi.

Pathological Findings of Experimental Toxoplasma gondii Infection in Guinea Pigs

Öz

An experimental toxoplasınosis was performed via different routes in 42 male guinea pigs by adıninistı·ating tachyzoites of Toxoplasma gondii Ankara strain. Three experimental groups were constituted by administratiııg tachyzoites through intravenous (group I), iııtraperitoneal (group 2), intradermal (group 3) routes. Each group contained 12 guinea pigs and 2 guinea pigs for each group were used to set up control (group 4). Tissue specimens of the euthanasied guinea pigs on certain days after inoculation were collected and examined histopathologically and ultrastructurally. The lesions occurred, were different in location and histopathological features depending on the inoculation routes. Macroscopically; In group I, multifocal gray to white foci were observed intensively in the lungs, liver and adreııal glaiıds of aııimals. In group 2, the serosal surfaces of abdominal cavity organs were covered with fıbrine , and in group 3, necroti c and lıaemorrhagic areas in 1.5-2.0 cm diameter at the inoculation si tes of the ski n were observed and region al lymph nodes were severely affected. Microscopically; In group 1, ınultifoc a l coagulation necrosis containing T. gondii tachyzoites were found in the lung, liver, splcen and adrenal gland . In group 2, necrotic areas starting at the seraza of the li ver, spleen, intestine and kidney were found to invade through the parenchyma. In this group, abundant tachyzo ites were detected. In group 3, granulomatous lesions included tac lıyz o it es were frequently seen in the skin, lymph node, liver, brain and lung. According to post inoculation days, lesions were distributed and invaded to the deep parts of the organs. Ultras tructurally; intensive necrotic areas with extracellular free tachyzoites were observed in exaınined ti ssues. Intracellul ar tachyzoites were detected frequcntly in ınacroph age cytoplasıns and endozoite forıns were alsa found.
