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 ...
