Sustainable control of cyathostomin infections in practice

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Cyathostomins are the most prevalent helminths in horses and are found in nearly all grazing groups. These parasites have been shown to exhibit widespread anthelmintic resistance and can cause clinical disease, so they are a growing concern.

TLRs, Treg and B cells, an interplay of regulation during helminth infection

Frontiers in Immunology, 2012
Commonly described as masters of regulation parasitic helminth infections provide a fascinating insight into the complexity of our immune system. As with many other pathogens helminths have developed complex evasion strategies and the immune response of ...

Nematode-induced interference with vaccination efficacy targets follicular T helper cell induction and is preserved after termination of infection. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
One-third of the human population is infected with parasitic worms. To avoid being eliminated, these parasites actively dampen the immune response of their hosts.

Plasmodium falciparum and Helminth Coinfections Increase IgE and Parasite-Specific IgG Responses

Microbiology Spectrum, 2021
Coinfection with Plasmodium falciparum and helminths may impact the immune response to these parasites because they induce different immune profiles. We studied the effects of coinfections on the antibody profile in a cohort of 715 Mozambican children ...

Immune Responses in Human Necatoriasis: Association between Interleukin-5 Responses and Resistance to Reinfection [PDF]

, 2004
Cytokine and proliferative responses to Necator americanus infection were measured in a treatment-reinfection study of infected subjects from an area of Papua New Guinea where N. americanus is highly endemic.

Distinguishing Features of ILC2s During Type 2 Immune Responses

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 2, February 2026.
Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are tissue‐resident cells regulated by diverse signals often emanating from surrounding nonhematopoietic cells at barrier surfaces. Their effector cytokines determine tissue homeostasis at steady state and during type 2 immunity in allergies or worm infections.

Schistosoma mansoni Infection Can Jeopardize the Duration of Protective Levels of Antibody Responses to Immunizations against Hepatitis B and Tetanus Toxoid. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2016
Schistosomiasis is a disease of major public health importance in sub-Saharan Africa. Immunoregulation begins early in schistosome infection and is characterized by hyporesponsiveness to parasite and bystander antigens, suggesting that a schistosome ...

Cellular and humoral immune responses and protection against schistosomes induced by a radiation-attenuated vaccine in chimpanzees [PDF]

, 2001
The radiation-attenuated Schistosoma mansoni vaccine is highly effective in rodents and primates but has never been tested in humans, primarily for safety reasons.

Reprogramming macrophages to an anti‐inflammatory phenotype by helminth antigens reduces murine atherosclerosis [PDF]

The FASEB Journal, 2013
Atherosclerosis is a lipid‐driven inflammatory disease of the vessel wall, characterized by the chronic activation of macrophages. We investigated whether the helminth‐derived antigens [soluble egg antigens (SEAs)] could modulate macrophage inflammatory responses and protect against atherosclerosis in mice.

Advances in the Role of Adipose Tissue in Promoting Injury Repair and Resist Infection

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background In recent years, adipose tissue (AT) transplantation has increasingly been noticed by many people in the field of tissue repair and regeneration. Accumulating evidence demonstrates that AT exerts dual functions in promoting tissue repair and conferring anti‐infective properties, with distinct biological effects attributed to its ...
