Example of a Taenia tapeworm (this one is a human species that comes from eating undercooked beef). (vin.com)
Note that Taenia tapeworms need two hosts: a dog or cat to house the adult tapeworm and a member of a prey species (see list below) to house the baby tapeworm while it develops. (vin.com)
The segments of a Taenia tapeworm are wider than they are long. (vin.com)
Taenia is a genus of tapeworm that includes some important parasites of livestock. (parasitetesting.com)
Not all members of the genus Taenia have an armed scolex (hooks and/or spines located in the "head" region), for example, Taenia saginata has an unarmed scolex, while Taenia solium has an armed scolex. (parasitetesting.com)
Taenia saginata are about 1,000-2,000 proglottids long with each gravid proglottid containing 100,000 eggs, while Taenia solium contain about 1,000 proglottids with each gravid proglottid containing 50,000 eggs. (parasitetesting.com)
In mice, peritoneal M2 macrophages, elicited during infection with the parasites Taenia crassiceps or Tryponosoma brucei brucei, expressed increased CD200R levels compared to those derived from uninfected mice. (uni-muenchen.de)
However, in vitro stimulation of mouse peritoneal macrophages and T crassiceps infection in IL-4-/- and IL-4R-/- mice showed that, in contrast to humans, induction of CD200R in mice was not IL-4 or IL-13 dependent. (uni-muenchen.de)
In short, pets at risk for a Taenia infection are those that eat raw meat, either through predation or raw feeding. (vin.com)
Hydatigena1
The worm can be unbelievably long (up to 5 yards for Taenia hydatigena ) and is made of segments. (vin.com)

Tapeworms3
The patient's leukocyte count was elevated (27.4 ´ 109 cells), and a differential count indicated 84% neutrophils, Taenia crassiceps tapeworms are intestinal parasites 8% lymphocytes, and 4% eosinophils. (cdc.gov)

The life cycle of Taenia tapeworms starts in the host's intestine, the host being a dog or cat. (vin.com)
Humans1

Species2
Here we report that this mechanism is present in three different species of cestodes, Taenia crassiceps, Mesocestoides corti and Echinococcus multilocularis. (conicet.gov.ar)
There are, as you might guess, other Taenia species that infect animals other than dogs and cats but we will leave them out of this discussion for simplicity. (vin.com)
Differential1
Differential antigenic protein recovery from Taenia solium cyst tissues using several detergents. (harvard.edu)
Mice1
The immune response elicited by T. crassiceps and its antigens in human and mice cells were studied, suggesting that it had a strong capacity to induce chronic Th2-type responses that are primarily characterized by high levels of Th2 cytokines, low proliferative response in lymphocytic cells, immature and LPS-tolerogenic profile in dendritic cells, the recruitment of myeloid-derived suppressor cells, and activated macrophages. (wikipedia.org)
Structures1
Interestingly, while T. crassiceps and M. corti metacestodes secrete membranous structures into the culture media, similar vesicles were observed in the interface of the germinal and laminated layers of E. multilocularis metacestodes and were hardly detected in culture supernatants.
