In vitro and in vivo efficacy of thiacloprid against Echinococcus multilocularis

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2021
Background Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a chronic zoonosis caused by the larval form of Echinococcus multilocularis ( E. multilocularis ). Current chemotherapy against AE has relied on albendazole and mebendazole, which only exhibit parasitostatic and

Serotonin stimulates Echinococcus multilocularis larval development

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2021
Background Serotonin is a phylogenetically ancient molecule that is widely distributed in most metazoans, including flatworms. In addition to its role as a neurotransmitter, serotonin acts as a morphogen and regulates developmental processes.

The immunodiagnosis of Echinococcus multilocularis infection [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology and Infection, 2007
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a severe zoonotic disease caused by the metacestode stage of Echinococcus multilocularis. The infection can have fatal consequences in humans if treatment is not provided, so early diagnosis is fundamental for initiating treatment and reducing morbidity and mortality.
