Abstract

To determine the status of Korean molluscs infection and relation with climate change of Korean peninsula, references were reviewed. Wild animals serve as intermediate, reservoirs and paratenic hosts to zoonotic parasites of human beings. Trematode are common parasites of molluscs and almost all trematodes infect mollusks as the first host in the life cycle, and most have a complex life cycle involving other hosts. The significance of auxiliary hosts to the ecology of the parasite has not been proper discussion. There is increasing concern as to the impact of climate change on the epidermiology of many parasitic diseases. A total of 21 species for snail transmitted parasites from Korean molluscs has been reviewed. Among them, 15 species was aquatic mollusks and 6 species for marine mollusks. Maximum infections belonged to Semisulcospira livertina had 11 kind of parasite pathogenic organisms, including Paragonimus westermani, Metagonimus yokogawai, Centrocestus armatus, Notocotylus magniovatus, Centrocestus formosanus, incerte cercaria, nipponensis cercaria, Yoshidae cercaria, cristata cercaria, innominatum cercaria and Metagonimus sp. And 11 in Parafossarulus manchouricus including Clonorchis sinensis, Asymphylodora japonica, Cyathocotyle orientalis, Exorchis oviformis, Notocotylus attenuatus, Echinochasmus japonicus, Loxogenes liberum, Cercariae of Loxogenes liberum Type I, Cercariae of Loxogenes liberum Type II, Furcocercus cercariae (Family Sanguincolidae) and Cercaria of Mucobucaris, 10 in Semisulcospira sp. including Paragonimus westermani, Metagonimus yokogawai, Centrocestus armatus, Echinochasmus redioduplicatus, Notocotylus magniovatus, Cercaria incerte, Cercaria nipponensis, Cercaria yoshidae, paludinarum cercaria and Metagonimus sp., 7 in Koreanomelania globus including Pseudexorchis major, Cercaria of parapleurolophocercous type, Metagonimus sp. (A & B), Cercaria nipponensis, Cercaria inserta and Cercaria yoshidae. Also, Tapes philippinarum have 3 pathogenic organisms including Cercariae tapidis, Cercariae furcocercus and Parvatrema sp. In particular, under climatic extremes such as floods and drought, aquatic molluscs may play a more prominent role in parasite transmission in the future.

본 연구는 한국산 연체동물의 감염 병원체의 실태와 한반도 기후변화에 따른 질병의 변화를 예측하기 위해 연구 보고된 문헌을 고찰하였다. 야생동물은 인체에 기생하는 인수공통전염병 기생충에 대한 중간숙주, 보유숙주 및 연체숙주로 제공되고 있다. 흡충류는 연체동물의 흔한 기생충이며 거의 모든 흡충류는 그들의 생활사에서 1차숙주로서 패류에 감염되며, 대부분은 또 다른 숙주를 포함하는 복잡한 생활사를 가지고 있다. 지금까지 기생충의 생태학에 대한 보조숙주로서의 중요성은 논의된 바 없다. 최근에 기후변화의 관점에서 많은 기생성 질병이 역학적 관심이 증가되고 있다. 한국산 연체동물을 대상으로 연구 보고된 문헌을 중심으로 기생성 병원체를 가진 종들을 조사 한 결과 전체 21종의 패류가 매개 기생체를 가지며, 이들 패류 21종이 가지고 있는 병원체는 모두 39종류로 확인되었다. 이 중 담수패류가 15종 그리고 해산패류에서 6종으로 나타났다. 담수패류 중 다슬기과의 다슬기 (Semisulcospira livertina) 에서 페흡충, 요코가와흡충, 가시입이형흡충 등 가장 많은 11종류의 기생성 병원체를 가지는 것으로 조사되었고, 쇠우렁이 (Parafossarulus manchouricus) 에서는 간흡충, 동양배반흡충, 메기장흡충, 오리오목흡충, 일본극구흡충 등 11종류, 다슬기류 (Semisulcospira sp.) 에서는 폐흡충, 요코가와흡충, 가시입이형흡충 등 10종류, 염주알다슬기(Koreanomelania globus) 에서는 메기소식흡충 등 7종류, 바지락 (Tapes philippinarum) 에서는 Cercariae tapidis 등 3 종류 그리고 나머지 패류에서 1-2 종류의 기생성 병원체를 보유하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 앞으로 홍수나 가뭄과 같은 극심한 기후변화가 일어난다면 담수패류는 기생성 매개자로서의 매우 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 예측되었다.
