Echinococcosis

open access: yesMediterranean Journal of Infection Microbes and Antimicrobials, 2021
Echinococcosis is a zoonotic disease caused by Echinococcus species. The life cycle involves a definitive host (dogs, wolves, jackals, and foxes) and an intermediate host. It is not transmitted from human to human. The most frequent agents are Echinococcus granulosus (E. granulosus) and Echinococcus multiloculoris (E. multiloculoris).

Immune Exhaustion in Chronic Infection and Cancer: Signaling Pathways and Therapeutic Interventions

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Immune exhaustion is a well‐established hallmark of both cancer and chronic infection. This review proposes a novel “infection–exhaustion–tumor axis” framework, wherein chronic pathogens (e.g., oncogenic viruses) evade immune surveillance by hijacking inflammatory signaling to drive immune cell exhaustion, thereby creating immunosuppressive niches ...
