Quercetin as a Promising Antiprotozoan Phytochemical: Current Knowledge and Future Research Avenues
Despite tremendous advances in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases, only few antiparasitic drugs have been developed to date. Protozoan infections such as malaria, leishmaniasis, and trypanosomiasis continue to exact an enormous toll on public health worldwide, underscoring the need to discover novel antiprotozoan drugs. Recently, there

Amoebiasis is the human infection with Entamoeba species, including E. histolytica, which is the causative agent of amoebic colitis, liver abscess, and rarely brain abscess; E. dispar, which is nonpathogenic; and E. moshkovskii, which causes diarrhea. The redefinition of E. histolytica, the re-description of E.

Histopathological study of invasive and non-invasive Entamoeba spp. in experimental rats
Background The genus Entamoeba has many species that are invasive or non-invasive (E. histolytica, E. dispar, and E. moshkovskii).The invasive E. histolytica is the main pathogenic amoeba in human.
