Case Report: A concomitant case of eosinophilic granuloma of the spine and Fasciola hepatica infection of the liver in a young patient, and review of the literature [PDF]
Frontiers in SurgeryEosinophilic granuloma (EG) is a benign osteolytic bone lesion and is a localized form of Langerhans cell histiocytosis, most commonly involving the skeletal system. EG is a rare tumor, and involvement of the spine is low.

Molecular characterization of Fasciola spp. from ruminants in Duhok province using the ITS1 ribosomal DNA marker [PDF]
Iraqi Journal of Veterinary Sciences, 2023 This study aimed to characterize and identify the genotypes of Fasciola spp. isolated from sheep, goats, and cattle in Duhok province based on the ITS1 region of rDNA. About 54 adult Fasciola flukes were individually isolated from the livers of naturally

Prevalence of liver fluke (Fasciola hepatica) in wild Red Deer (Cervus elaphus): coproantigen ELISA is a practicable alternative to faecal egg counting for surveillance in remote populations [PDF]
, 2016 Red deer (Cervus elaphus) are hosts of liver fluke (Fasciola hepatica); yet, prevalence is rarely quantified in wild populations. Testing fresh samples from remote regions by faecal examination (FE) can be logistically challenging; hence, we appraise ...

Assessment of genetic markers for multilocus sequence typing (MLST) of Fasciola isolates from Iran
Veterinary Medicine and Science, 2023 Background Several markers have been described to characterise the population structure and genetic diversity of Fasciola species (Fasciola hepatica (F. hepatica) and Fasciola gigantica (F. gigantica). However, sequence analysis of a single genomic locus

Glycans from Fasciola hepatica modulate the host immune response and TLR-Induced maturation of dendritic cells [PDF]
, 2015 Helminths express various carbohydrate-containing glycoconjugates on their surface, and they release glycan-rich excretion/secretion products that can be very important in their life cycles, infection and pathology. Recent evidence suggests that parasite

Molecular Identification of Fasciola Isolated from the Liver of Meat Animals in Fars Province, Iran
Journal of Parasitology Research, 2022 Background. Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica are flatworms that infect animals and humans. Fasciola is the parasite of the liver or bile ducts and intestines of mammals, where such animals are known as their “definite hosts.” The study aims to ...
