title: [Changes in the monocercus cercomer in the cysticercoid cavity and the hemocoel of the nonspecific host].
abstract: In order to elucidate the functional role of cercomer in larvae of the monocercus type their transplantation from the specific host Chironomus obtusidens to Gammarus lacustris was conducted. At early stages after the transplantation proceeds an increase in the functional activity of the tegument of follicles of the cercomer followed by their complete destruction in 3 or 4 days. On the surface of the exocyst membrane an adhesion of the host's haemocytes occurs, which becomes more distinct in 3-4 days when the process acquires a character of local encapsulation. Within the same period, in the places of haemocytes aggregation, a local resorption of the exocyst external membrane takes place. Later intensification of the host response to transplant is associated with the destruction of follicles of the cercomer. In one case the occurrence of follicles of the cercomer in the cavity of cysticercoid was observed that is caused by the microbe affection of the latter. In the zone of contact of the tegument of scolex and neck with follicles of the cercomer an increased secretion (the microapocrine type) of the tegument, disturbance of the microvillous tegument of the cercomer's follicles and their destruction are observed. Incompatibility of the tegument of definitive departments and cercomer, which arises during differentiation of larvae, is supposed to affect the formation of scolex invagination in the evolution of larvae of Hymenolepis.
