Abstract: | The early-phase migration dynamics of Echinococcus multilocularis in the intermediate hosts remain largely unknown. We compared the parasite burden in the intestine, liver and faeces of DBA/2 and C57BL/6 mouse strains using parasite-specific quantitative PCR. Our results indicated that the parasites invaded mainly from the middle segments of the small intestine and completed migration to the liver within 24 h p.i. C57BL/6 mice had lower parasite DNA burdens in the intestine and liver but higher in the faeces than DBA/2 mice, suggesting that parasite invasion of the intestine may be a critical stage regulating susceptibility to E. multilocularis infection in mice.
