The genome of Entamoeba histolytica
International Journal for Parasitology, 2000Estimation of genome size of Entamoeba histolytica by different methods has failed to give comparable values due to the inherent complexities of the organism, such as the uncertain level of ploidy, presence of multinucleated cells and a poorly demarcated cell division cycle. The genome of E. histolytica has a low G+C content (22.4%), and is composed of

Amoebiasis and the entamoeba histolytica
Infection, 1973Amoebic infection of man is one of the most frequently occurring parasitic diseases in the tropics and is nearly exclusively acquired in the tropical and subtropical zones of the earth. Recently, however, amoebiasis is found to occur increasingly in Europe and physicians should therefore become acquainted with the disease.

Entamoeba histolytica: an update
Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2003Over the past decade, since it was formally recognized that Entamoeba histolytica and Entamoeba dispar were two distinct species, studies in this field have made dramatic in-roads into the understanding of E. histolytica and the pathogenesis of invasive amoebiasis. Over the same period it has also become clear that the true incidence of E.

, 2020 The protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica is responsible for invasive intestinal and extraintestinal amebiasis. The virulence of Entamoeba histolytica is strongly correlated with the parasite's capacity to effectively kill and phagocytose host ...

The immunopathogenesis of Entamoeba histolytica
Experimental Parasitology, 2010Amebiasis is the disease caused by the enteric dwelling protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica. The WHO considers amebiasis as one of the major health problems in developing countries; it is surpassed by only malaria and schistosomiasis for death caused by parasitic infection. E.

Introns of Entamoeba histolytica and Entamoeba dispar
Protist, 2001The genome of Entamoeba histolytica is considered to possess very few intervening sequences (introns), as only 5 intron-containing genes from this protozoan parasite have been reported so far. However, while sequencing a number of genomic contigs as well as three independent genes coding for ribosomal protein L27a, we have identified 9 additional ...

Pathogenicity of entamoeba histolytica
Infection, 1975The pathogenicity of Entamoeba histolytica is discussed from an immunologic point of view. The evidence that there is some "trigger" mechanism which converts a commensal dwelling organism into a tissue invasive pathogen is rejected as inadequate. The number of liver abscess cases in comparison with the number of intestinal amebic infections in a ...
