Zoonotic risks in urban areas: Prevalence of helminth parasites in urban populations of Lissachatina fulica in Sarawak, Malaysia

open access: yesVeterinary Record Open, Volume 13, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Background The giant African land snail (Lissachatina fulica), an invasive species with significant medical, agricultural and economic importance, is abundant in urban areas of Kota Samarahan, Sarawak. The proximity between humans and the snail may increase the risk of pathogen transmission.

IL-10 regulates Th17 response to inhibit hepatobiliary injury caused by Clonorchis sinensis infection in C57BL/6J mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Clonorchiasis caused by Clonorchis sinensis is a mainly foodborne parasitic disease. It can lead to hepatobiliary duct inflammation, fibrosis, obstructive jaundice, liver cirrhosis, and even cholangiocarcinoma. Interleukin (IL)-10 is an immune-regulatory

Multicohort Validation of Gut Microbiome Signatures for Cholangiocarcinoma Diagnosis and Functional Characterization of Bifidobacterium Pseudocatenulatum

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 27, 13 May 2026.
This study analyzes gut bacteria in cholangiocarcinoma patients, revealing distinct microbial signatures that enable accurate disease detection. Species‐based diagnostic models achieved over 98% accuracy in identifying cholangiocarcinoma and distinguished it from other liver diseases. The research demonstrates that specific beneficial bacteria suppress

In silico prediction of secretory proteins of Opisthorchis viverrini, Clonorchis sinensis and Fasciola hepatica that target the host cell nucleus

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
Liver flukes Fasciola hepatica, Opisthorchis viverrini and Clonorchis sinensis are causing agents of liver and hepatobiliary diseases. A remarkable difference between such worms is the fact that O. viverrini and C.

Praziquantel in clonorchiasis and opisthorchiasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
A single stool examination revealed pathogenic intestinal parasites in 462 (58%) of 796 vietnamese and cambodian refugees. 56 (7.0%) were infected with Clonorchis sinensis and/or Opisthorchis viverrini. These patients received Praziquantel in a dosage of

A Whole‐Genome Investigation of Mitonuclear Discordance in the Trematode Parasite Atriophallophorus winterbourni

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 10, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Faster evolution of mitochondrial genomes relative to nuclear genomes creates selective pressure on nuclear genes involved in mitochondrial function to preserve mitonuclear compatibility required for energy production. In isolated populations, such coevolution occurs independently.

Helminths as architects of trained tolerance: implications for human health

open access: yesClinical &Translational Immunology, Volume 15, Issue 3, 2026.
Abstract Helminths infect nearly 2 billion people worldwide and are a major cause of chronic morbidity in low‐resource regions. Unlike bacterial and viral pathogens that elicit protective memory, helminths actively remodel host immunity to enable their years‐long persistence and reinfection.

Incidence and Mortality Risks of Gastrointestinal Cancers During Working‐Age Period: Trends and Disparities in 204 Countries and Territories (1990–2021)

open access: yesMed Research, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 58-74, March 2026.
This comprehensive analysis of gastrointestinal (GI) cancer risk reveals that globally, one in 46 people will develop and one in 73 will die from GI cancers during working age (15–64 years), with 2021 incidence and mortality risks of 2.19% and 1.37%, respectively. Key findings demonstrate striking gender disparities, with males facing nearly double the
