Carcinogenic parasite (original) (raw)
Carcinogenic parasites are parasitic organisms that depend on other organisms (called hosts) for their survival, and cause cancer in such hosts. Three species of flukes (trematodes) are medically-proven carcinogenic parasites, namely the urinary blood fluke (Schistosoma haematobium), the Southeast Asian liver fluke (Opisthorchis viverrini) and the Chinese liver fluke (Clonorchis sinensis). S. haematobium is prevalent in Africa and the Middle East, and is the leading cause of bladder cancer (only next to tobacco smoking). O. viverrini and C. sinensis are both found in eastern and southeastern Asia, and are responsible for cholangiocarcinoma (cancer of the bile ducts). The International Agency for Research on Cancer declared them in 2009 as a Group 1 biological carcinogens in humans.

dbo:abstract | Carcinogenic parasites are parasitic organisms that depend on other organisms (called hosts) for their survival, and cause cancer in such hosts. Three species of flukes (trematodes) are medically-proven carcinogenic parasites, namely the urinary blood fluke (Schistosoma haematobium), the Southeast Asian liver fluke (Opisthorchis viverrini) and the Chinese liver fluke (Clonorchis sinensis). S. haematobium is prevalent in Africa and the Middle East, and is the leading cause of bladder cancer (only next to tobacco smoking). O. viverrini and C. sinensis are both found in eastern and southeastern Asia, and are responsible for cholangiocarcinoma (cancer of the bile ducts). The International Agency for Research on Cancer declared them in 2009 as a Group 1 biological carcinogens in humans. Other parasites are also linked to various cancers. Among protozoan parasites, Toxoplasma gondii, Cryptosporidium parvum, Trichomonas vaginalis and Theileria are associated with specific cancer cells. Plasmodium falciparum can also be an indirect cause of cancer. Tapeworms such as Echinococcus granulosus and Taenia solium may directly or indirectly cause cancer. Liver flukes such as Opisthorchis viverrini and Platynosomum fastosum can cause cancer in domesticated animals. Roundworms such as Strongyloides stercoralis, Heterakis gallinarum, and Trichuris muris are known to cause cancer in animals. (en) 발암기생충(發癌寄生蟲, Carcinogenic parasite)은 감염성 암원으로서의 기생충을 의미한다. 의학적으로 입증된 발암기생충으로는 흡충류, (Schistosoma hamatobium), (Opisthorchis viverrini), 간흡충(Clonorchis sinensis)이 있다. 빌하르트 주혈흡충은 아프리카와 중동에 널리 퍼져 있으며, 흡연과 함께 방광암의 주요 원인이다. 타이간흡충과 간흡충 모두 동아시아와 동남아시아에서 발견되는데, 담관암을 일으킨다. 국제 암 연구 기관은 2009년 이들을 1군 발암물질로 선언했다. 이 외에도 원생동물 발암기생충으로는 톡소포자충(Toxoplasma gondii), (Cryptosporidium parvum), (Trichomonas vaginalis), 범안열원충속(Theileria)이 있다. (Plasmodium falciparum) 역시 암을 일으킬 수 있다. (Echinococcus granulosus)이나 갈고리촌충(Taenia solium)같은 촌충류도 직간접적으로 암을 일으킬 수 있다. 타이간흡충, 열대열원충같은 간흡충류는 가축들에게 암을 일으킬 수도 있다. (Strongyloides stercoralis), (Heterakis gallinarum), (Trichuris muris) 등의 기생충은 동물들에게서 암을 일으킬 수 있다. (ko) |
