Parasite‐derived microRNA let‐7‐5p detection for metacestodiasis based on rolling circular amplification‐assisted CRISPR/Cas9

The FASEB Journal, Volume 38, Issue 10, 31 May 2024.
MicroRNA extraction and RCA‐assisted CRISPR/Cas9 detection. Abstract Metacestodiasis is an infectious disease caused by the larval stage of cestode parasites. This disease poses a serious health hazard to wildlife, livestock, and humans, and it incurs substantial economic losses by impacting the safety of the livestock industry, the quality of meat ...

Recent advances on innate immune pathways related to host–parasite cross-talk in cystic and alveolar echinococcosis

Parasites & Vectors, 2020
Cystic echinococcosis (CE) and alveolar echinococcosis (AE) are life-threatening parasitic infections worldwide caused by Echinococcus granulosus ( sensu lato ) and E. multilocularis , respectively. Very little is known about the factors affecting innate

Study on the mechanism of miRNAs on liver injury in the condition of Protoscocephalus alveolarus transhepatic portal vein infection

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 12, Issue 4, April 2024.
miRNA is involved in the regulation of liver injury caused by Echinococcus multilocularis infection. mmu‐miR‐30e‐3p, mmu‐miR‐203‐3p, mmu‐miR‐125b‐5p, and mmu‐miR‐30c‐2‐3p may serve as potential diagnostic targets for liver injury. Abstract Objective To explore the role of miRNA in liver damage caused by Echinococcus multilocularis infection.

Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis: correlation between computed tomography morphology and inflammatory activity in positron emission tomography

Scientific Reports, 2020
Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) with 18F-fluorodesoxyglucose (FDG) is the imaging modality of choice for assessing inflammation surrounding hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (AE) lesions.

Electrospun fiber‐based immune engineering in regenerative medicine

Smart Medicine, Volume 3, Issue 1, February 2024.
Specially engineered electrospun fibers can modulate the immune cells at the implantation site, such as macrophages and neutrophils, inducing them to adopt an anti‐inflammatory cell phenotype or secrete anti‐inflammatory cytokines, thereby exerting immunomodulatory effects.

A Retrospective Review of Neglected Tropical Diseases Diagnosed on Histopathological Specimens in the Free State Province, South Africa, 2015–2020

Journal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Background. Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) are a heterogeneous group of medical conditions that commonly occur in underprivileged populations. NTDs are primarily diagnosed in tropical areas. Although South Africa is not situated in a tropical region, the high poverty rate makes the country susceptible to some NTDs. Limited data are available on the

Ultrasound identification of hepatic echinococcosis using a deep convolutional neural network model in China: a retrospective, large-scale, multicentre, diagnostic accuracy study

The Lancet: Digital Health, 2023
Summary: Background: Ultrasonography is the most widely used technique to diagnose echinococcosis; however, challenges in using this technique and the demand on medical resources, especially in low-income or remote areas, can delay diagnosis.
