Vaccines against the zoonotic trematodes Schistosoma japonicum, Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica [PDF]
Parasitology, 2006 Schistosoma japonicum, Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica are digenetic trematodes and, therefore, possess similar life cycles. While schistosomiasis japonica has for a long time been recognised as a major disease of both humans and animals, infection ...

A contemporary map of Fasciola hepatica distribution in sheep and cattle in New South Wales. [PDF]
Aust Vet JFasciola hepatica is a global threat to livestock production, human health, and food security. Infection causes significant reductions in milk production and quality, feed conversion efficiency, wool quality, and reproductive performance. In New South Wales (NSW), Australia, data on the distribution of F. hepatica are more than 50 years out of date and

Video Journal and Encyclopedia of GI Endoscopy, 2013 AbstractFasciola is 15–30-mm long, flat, liver trematode that is endemic in sheep-raising regions. Consumption of raw aquatic vegetables such as watercress contaminated with metacercariae is the main cause of infection. The disease has three stages: an acute invasive, chronic latent, and chronic obstructive phase.

Helminth Infections: Recognition and Modulation of the Immune Response by Innate Immune Cells [PDF]
, 2018 The survival of helminths in the host over long periods of time is the result of a process of adaptation or dynamic co-evolution between the host and the parasite. However, infection with helminth parasites causes damage to the host tissues producing the
