Pathogenicity and virulence of Entamoeba histolytica, the agent of amoebiasis. [PDF]

Virulence, 2023
The amoeba parasite Entamoeba histolytica is the causative agent of human amebiasis, an enteropathic disease affecting millions of people worldwide. This ancient protozoan is an elementary example of how parasites evolve with humans, e.g.

Clinical and microscopic predictors of Entamoeba histolytica intestinal infection in travelers and migrants diagnosed with Entamoeba histolytica/dispar infection. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
BACKGROUND:Amebiasis is a protozoal infection caused by Entamoeba histolytica, while the morphologically indistinguishable E. dispar is considered as non-pathogenic. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays are necessary to differentiate both species.

Phosphatidylinositol Kinases and Phosphatases in Entamoeba histolytica

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2019
Phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) metabolism is indispensable in eukaryotes. Phosphoinositides (PIs) are phosphorylated derivatives of PtdIns and consist of seven species generated by reversible phosphorylation of the inositol moieties at the positions 3, 4,

Species-Specific Immunodetection of an Entamoeba histolytica Cyst Wall Protein.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2016
Entamoeba histolytica causes intestinal disease in endemic settings throughout the world. Diagnosis of E. histolytica infection would be improved by the identification of biomarkers that are expressed by cysts of E.
