Amoebic liver abscess production by Entamoeba dispar
Annals of Hepatology, 2012 Although Entamoeba dispar displays a similar morphology to Entamoeba histolytica, cellular and molecular studies have revealed significant differences between these two amoebae, including the former being characterized as non-pathogenic and the later as ...

Comparison of hemolytic activity of the intermediate subunit of Entamoeba histolytica and Entamoeba dispar lectins. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Galactose and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine-inhibitable lectin of Entamoeba histolytica has roles in pathogenicity and induction of protective immunity in rodent models of amoebiasis. Recently, the intermediate subunit of the lectin, Igl1, of E.

Entamoeba dispar: Could it be pathogenic.
Trop Parasitol, 2015 Amebiasis is a disease caused by the protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica. This ameba can colonize the human intestine and persist as a commensal parasite, similar to Entamoeba dispar, an ameba considered to be non-pathogenic. The similarities between E. histolytica and E.

Erythrophagocytosis in Entamoeba histolytica and Entamoeba dispar: a comparative study. [PDF]
Biomed Res Int, 2014 Entamoeba histolyticais the causative agent of human intestinal and liver amebiasis. The extraordinary phagocytic activity ofE. histolyticatrophozoites has been accepted as one of the virulence mechanisms responsible for their invasive capacity. The recognition of the noninvasiveEntamoeba disparas a different species has raised the question as to ...

Standardized RNA extraction protocol for Entamoeba species: advancing molecular diagnostics and amebiasis control [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection MicrobiologyAmebiasis, caused by Entamoeba histolytica, remains a major public health challenge in endemic regions and is often misdiagnosed due to its morphological similarity to the non-pathogenic species E. dispar. The limitations of light microscopy and the high
