Morphological Characteristics of Alveolar and Cystic Echinococcosis Lesions in Human Liver and Bone

Pathogens, 2021
Among echinococcoses diseases of human interest, two have a global public health impact: cystic and alveolar echinococcosis caused by Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato and Echinococcus multilocularis, respectively. Cystic and alveolar echinococcosis are

Multiple Giant Cerebral Hydatid Cysts in Pediatrics

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT In Ethiopia, although multiple giant cerebral hydatid cysts are rare, rural children in close contact with dogs remain at risk. Diagnosis requires clinical suspicion and advanced imaging. Dowling hydrodissection allows intact cyst removal. Preoperative anthelmintics minimize allergic risks.

Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Signaling Involves Echinococcus–Host Intercommunication: A Potential Therapeutic Target in Hepatic Echinococcosis

Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease
Echinococcosis, one of the most serious and life-threatening parasitic forms of zoonosis worldwide, is caused by the larvae of Echinococcus granulosus (E. granulosus) and Echinococcus multilocularis (E. multilocularis).

Molecular epidemiology of Echinococcus species in Pakistan

Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Medicine, 2018
Objective: Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a zoonotic parasitic disease and a neglected infectious disease affecting more than one million people globally. It is caused by the tapeworm parasite of Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato.

Echinococcus granulosus: The establishment of the metacestode in the liver is associated with control of the CD4+ T-cell-mediated immune response in patients with cystic echinococcosis and a mouse model

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
The larval stage of the tapeworm Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato (E. granulosus s.l.) caused a chronic infection, known as cystic echinococcosis (CE), which is a worldwide public health problem. The human secondary CE is caused by the dissemination of

Thioredoxin peroxidase secreted by Echinococcus granulosus (sensu stricto) promotes the alternative activation of macrophages via PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Larvae of Echinococcus granulosus (sensu lato) dwell in host organs for a long time but elicit only a mild inflammatory response, which indicates that the resolution of host inflammation is necessary for parasite survival.

Cystic echinococcosis due to Echinococcus equinus in a Swiss donkey

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page e71-e76, April 2025.
Summary A 22‐year‐old donkey (Equus asinus) mare was presented for investigation of a 3‐day history of lethargy and anorexia. Serum biochemistry profile revealed severe increased liver‐derived enzymes. Abdominal ultrasound demonstrated several large round cysts in the liver.

The local immune response during Echinococcus granulosus growth in a quantitative hepatic experimental model

Scientific Reports, 2019
The local immune mechanisms responsible for the establishment and development of Echinococcus granulosus sensu stricto infection in the liver, have been little explored.

The Effect of Lamb Vaccination Against Echinococcosis on the Scale of Livestock Farming in Northwestern China

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2025.
Lamb vaccination against echinococcosis significantly boosted the livestock farming scale by reducing cattle and sheep mortality and culling numbers in Qinghai. ABSTRACT Echinococcosis (also known as ‘hydatidosis’ or ‘hydatid disease’) is a severe zoonotic disease that poses threats to human and animal health and significantly impacts livestock ...

Fasciola hepatica coinfection modifies the morphological and immunological features of Echinococcus granulosus cysts in cattle

Veterinary Research, 2020
Polyparasitism occurs when animals harbour multiple parasites concomitantly. It is a common occurrence but is generally understudied in wild and domestic animals. Fasciola hepatica and Echinococcus granulosus, which are helminths of ungulates, frequently
