Molecular diagnosis of potentially human pathogenic Enterocytozoon bieneusi and Encephalitozoon species in exotic birds in Southwestern Iran

Journal of Infection and Public Health, 2018
Microsporidia are obligate intracellular parasites that produce spores. The infections caused by these parasites are mostly considered to be opportunistic in immunodeficient patients.

Aspects of Genetic Diversity, Host Specificity and Public Health Significance of Single‐Celled Intestinal Parasites Commonly Observed in Humans and Mostly Referred to as ‘Non‐Pathogenic’

APMIS, Volume 133, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Clinical microbiology involves the detection and differentiation of primarily bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi in patients with infections. Billions of people may be colonised by one or more species of common luminal intestinal parasitic protists (CLIPPs) that are often detected in clinical microbiology laboratories; still, our knowledge

A Different Approach to Cancer and Drug Resistance in Cancer: Parasites

Proceedings, 2019
Encephalitozoon intestinalis (E. intestinalis) is a parasite that causes opportunistic infections that can cause death in immune compromised patients. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of parasite on genes involved in host cell apoptosis.

Tubulointerstitial Nephritis Post‐Microsporidium Infection in a Combined Liver–Kidney Transplanted Patient: A Case Report

Nephrology, Volume 30, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Microsporidia are emerging opportunistic pathogens in immunosuppressed individuals, including solid organ transplant recipients. We present a case of tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) caused by Microsporidia infection in a 55‐year‐old male who underwent combined liver–kidney transplantation (CLKT) for metabolic‐associated fatty liver disease ...
