The Role of Innate Lymphoid Cells in the Pathogenesis of Hepatic Echinococcosis: A Literature Review

Parasite Immunology, Volume 48, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Hepatic echinococcosis (HE), a major zoonotic disease, remains endemic in pastoral regions of Western China, where its incidence is closely linked to geographical, livestock and sanitary conditions. The disease presents a significant clinical challenge due to the complexity of host–parasite interactions and a high recurrence rate. To date, the

A transcriptomic analysis of Echinococcus granulosus larval stages:implications for parasite biology and host adaptation [PDF]

, 2012
The cestode Echinococcus granulosus--the agent of cystic echinococcosis, a zoonosis affecting humans and domestic animals worldwide--is an excellent model for the study of host-parasite cross-talk that interfaces with two mammalian hosts.

The immunodiagnosis of Echinococcus multilocularis infection [PDF]

Clinical 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.

Enrichment of Helminth Mitochondrial Genomes From Faecal Samples Using Hybridisation Capture

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 8, November 2025.
ABSTRACT New approaches are urgently needed to enrich rare or low‐abundant DNA in complex samples. Soil‐transmitted helminths (STHs) inhabit heterogeneous environments, including the gastrointestinal tract of their host as adults and are excreted as eggs and larvae in faeces, complicating our understanding of their biology and the use of genetic tools ...

Echinococcus multilocuraris –first recorded case of Norway rat ( Rattus norvegicus ) in Poland

Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2019
Introduction Echinococcus multilocularis is a very dangerous zoonotic parasite threatening human health. The red fox is the main definitive host, and cats and dogs less commonly. Rats can be intermediate hosts.

The Effect of Climate Change on Emergence and Evolution of Zoonotic Diseases in Asia

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 7, Page 587-611, November 2025.
ABSTRACT As the climate of Asia changes under the influence of global warming, the incidence and spatial distribution of known zoonoses will evolve, and new zoonoses are expected to emerge as a result of greater exposure to organisms which currently occur only in wildlife.
