Abstract:
Paleoparasitology is a discipline that applies existing conventional and molecular techniques to study parasites found in ancient ruins. This review focuses on the history of the discovery of parasites (mostly helminth eggs and larvae) in archaeological soil samples and mummies in Korea from the Three Kingdoms Period to the Joseon Dynasty (100 BCE-1910 CE). We also briefly review important milestones in global paleoparasitology. The helminth species reported so far in Korea included Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura, Strongyloides stercoralis (larva), Trichostrongylus sp. (larva), Paracapillaria philippinensis (syn. Capillaria philippinensis), Enterobius vermicularis, Fasciola hepatica, dicrocoeliids, Paragonimus westermani, Clonorchis sinensis, Metagonimus yokogawai, Pygidiopsis summa, Gymnophalloides seoi, Isthmiophora hortensis, Dibothriocephalus nihonkaiensis (syn. Diphyllobothrium nihonkaiense), and Taenia spp. tapeworms. The findings obtained by Korean paleoparasitologists/archaeologists have brought about deep insight into the status of helminthic infections in Korea\'s past populations. Continued paleoparasitological research is essential for further understanding of ancient parasites and parasitic diseases in Korea.
摘要:
古寄生虫学是一门应用现有的常规和分子技术研究古代遗址中发现的寄生虫的学科。这篇评论的重点是从三国时期到朝鲜王朝(公元前100年至1910年)在韩国的考古土壤样本和木乃伊中发现寄生虫(主要是蠕虫卵和幼虫)的历史。我们还简要回顾了全球古寄生虫学的重要里程碑。到目前为止,在韩国报道的蠕虫物种包括A虫,TrichurisTrichiura,侧圆圆线虫(幼虫),Trichostrongylussp.(幼虫),菲律宾副甲(syn。菲律宾毛细血管),蛭虫,肝片吸虫,双球菌,威斯特马尼对龙,华支睾吸虫,YokogawaiMetagonimus,脓疱病summa,Gymnophalloidesseoi,叶枯草,日本双头鱼(syn。Diphyllobothriumnihonkaiense),和牛带虫属物种。tape虫。韩国古寄生虫学家/考古学家的发现使人们对韩国过去人群中蠕虫感染的状况有了深刻的了解。持续的古寄生虫学研究对于进一步了解韩国的古代寄生虫和寄生虫病至关重要。
