Entamoeba dispar: Genetic Diversity of Iranian Isolates Based on Serine-Rich Entamoeba dispar Protein Gene

open access: yesPakistan Journal of Biological Sciences, 2008
The nucleotide sequences of Serine-Rich Entamoeba histolytica Protein (SREHP) gene have already exhibited stable and significant polymorphism in the gene studies. Serine-rich protein is also present and polymorphic in Entamoeba dispar which called SREDP. The polymorphism of the Serine-Rich Entamoeba dispar Protein (SREDP) gene among 8 isolates obtained

Differentiation of Entamoeba histolytica and Entamoeba dispar in cyst-passers by immunoblot [PDF]

open access: yesThe Korean Journal of Parasitology, 1996
Differentiation of invasive strains of Entamoeba histolytica according to their pathogenicity has been a topic of long debate, but now the pathogenic species only is regarded as E. histolytica while the non pathogenic species is E. dispar. The present study applied immunoblot to differentiate infections of the two species among microscopically-detected

Parasitic Infections and Associated Cognitive Outcome Among School‐Aged Children in Africa: A Systematic Review

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Parasitic infections like schistosomiasis, soil‐transmitted helminths, and malaria can impair nutrient absorption, oxygen supply, and brain function, leading to memory deficits, attention deficits, reduced intelligence quotient, weak academic performance, and motor or executive deficits.

Trogocytosis by Entamoeba histolytica Mediates Acquisition and Display of Human Cell Membrane Proteins and Evasion of Lysis by Human Serum. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We previously showed that Entamoeba histolytica kills human cells through a mechanism that we termed trogocytosis ("trogo-" means "nibble"), due to its resemblance to trogocytosis in other organisms. In microbial eukaryotes like E.
