Hybridization and introgression of the mitochondrial genome between the two species <i>Anisakis pegreffii</i> and <i>A. simplex</i> (s.s.) using a wide genotyping approach: evolutionary and ecological implications. [PDF]
ParasitologyAnisakis pegreffii and A. simplex (s.s.) are the two zoonotic anisakids infecting cetaceans as well as pelagic/demersal fish and squids. In European waters, A. pegreffii prevails in the Mediterranean Sea, while A. simplex (s.s.) in the NE Atlantic Ocean.

Anisakis pegreffii impacts differentiation and function of human dendritic cells [PDF]
Parasite Immunology, 2018 SummaryHuman dendritic cells (DCs) show remarkable phenotypic changes when matured in the presence of helminth‐derived products. These modifications frequently elicited a polarization towards Th2 cells and regulatory T cells thus contributing to immunological tolerance against these pathogens.

Comparative Transcriptomics Reveals Clues for Differences in Pathogenicity between Hysterothylacium aduncum, Anisakissimplex sensu stricto and Anisakis pegreffii. [PDF]
Genes (Basel), 2020 Ascaridoid nematodes are widespread in marine fishes. Despite their major socioeconomic importance, mechanisms associated to the fish-borne zoonotic disease anisakiasis are still obscure.

De novo transcriptome sequencing and analysis of Anisakis pegreffii (Nematoda: Anisakidae) third-stage and fourth stage larvae. [PDF]
J Nematol, 2020 Anisakis pegreffii is known as one of the causes of a fish-borne zoonosis, anisakidosis. Despite its significant public health and food hygiene impacts, little is known of the pathogenesis, genetic background of this parasite, at least partly due to the ...

Fecundity of the zoonotic nematode Anisakis pegreffii cultivated in vitro. [PDF]
Folia ParasitologicaThe zoonotic marine nematodes of the genus Anisakis Dujardin, 1845 are the causative agents of anisakiasis, a parasitosis that has been increasingly reported in Europe over the past decade due to the more frequent consumption of lightly processed or raw ...

Gene expression profiles of antigenic proteins of third stage larvae of the zoonotic nematode Anisakis pegreffii in response to temperature conditions. [PDF]
Parasite, 2019 Anisakis pegreffii, a recognised etiological agent of human anisakiasis, is a parasite of homeothermic hosts at the adult stage and of ectothermic hosts at the third larval stage.

Determinants of Ascaridoid Nematode Infection and Anisakis-Related Zoonotic Exposure Risk in Eastern Mediterranean Gadiformes Fishes. [PDF]
Transbound Emerg DisLarvae of ascaridoid nematodes, particularly Anisakis spp., are common parasites of commercially important marine fishes and may represent a zoonotic hazard following ingestion of raw or undercooked seafood. We investigated the ascaridoid fauna of the sympatric European hake (Merluccius merluccius) and greater forkbeard (Phycis blennoides) from the ...

Excretory/secretory proteases and mechanical movement of Anisakis pegreffii infective larvae in the penetration of BALB/c mice gastrointestine [PDF]
Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2017 Anisakiasis is a human parasitic disease caused by infection with the infective larvae of Anisakis. Accidental infection in humans causes the gastrointestinal pathophysiological effects of mechanical tissue damage by migrating larvae.
