Macrophage-derived human resistin is induced in multiple helminth infections and promotes inflammatory monocytes and increased parasite burden. [PDF]

, 2015
Parasitic helminth infections can be associated with lifelong morbidity such as immune-mediated organ failure. A better understanding of the host immune response to helminths could provide new avenues to promote parasite clearance and/or alleviate ...

Site- and structure-specific characterization of glycoproteins of H11: potent vaccine candidates against parasitic worm Haemonchus

Frontiers in Immunology
Parasitic worm (helminth) infections pose significant threats to global health and livestock productivity. Although mass spectrometry (MS)-based glycomics have revealed that helminths express structurally complex N-glycans, site- and structure-specific ...

Eosinophilia in the Tropics: Should Empirical Anthelmintic Treatment Be Considered Standard Practice? A Prospective Cohort Study

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 10, Page 1433-1442, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Eosinophilia is a common clinical finding with diverse etiologies. Helminthiasis is a major aetiology in tropical regions, but data from haematology consultation services at tertiary centres in endemic settings are limited. Objectives To determine the prevalence of helminthiasis among patients with eosinophilia at a tropical ...

Pathophysiology of the gut–eye axis in a Sjögren's disease‐like dry eye mouse model: An exploratory evaluation of dietary heat‐treated Enterococcus faecalis FK‐23

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 10, Page 4507-4524, 1 October 2026.
Abstract Sjögren's disease is an autoimmune disease characterized by severe dry eye, but its pathophysiology remains unclear. Non‐obese diabetic (NOD) mice develop Sjögren's disease‐like dry eye prior to the onset of diabetes. Although intestinal immune abnormalities precede diabetes in NOD mice, their relationship to dry eye remains poorly understood.
