Human fascioliasis in Argentina: retrospective overview, critical analysis and baseline for future research [PDF]

, 2011
In Argentina, human fascioliasis has never been adequately analysed, although having a physiography, climate, animal prevalences and lymnaeids similar to those of countries where the disease is endemic such as Bolivia, Peru and Chile.

Liver Cirrhosis Caused by Food‐Borne Zoonotic Fasciola gigantica in Cattle in Bangladesh: Pathology and Immunological Orchestra

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Fasciolosis is a food‐borne parasitic zoonotic disease caused by widespread liver flukes that affect ruminants and humans, and is responsible for non‐resolving hepatic damage. Although fasciolosis occurs in both acute and chronic forms, chronic fasciolosis is more common.

High-Resolution Melting Analysis as an Appropriate Method to Differentiate between Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica

Iranian Journal of Public Health, 2019
Background: Fasciolosis is a shared disease between humans and livestock caused by hepatic trematodes; Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica. Differentiate between the two species of this genus is essential. High-Resolution Melting (HRM) Analysis represents

Fasciola hepatica‐Derived Proteins Shield the Heart From Type 2 Myocardial Infarction in Rats by Modulating Oxidative Stress and Inflammatory Imbalance: Insights Relevant to the Hygiene Hypothesis

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Myocardial infarction (MI) remains a leading cause of mortality worldwide, with type 2 MI (T2MI) carrying a worse prognosis than type 1 MI (T1MI). The hygiene hypothesis suggests that reduced microbial exposure in sanitized environments contributes to immune dysregulation and inflammation‐related diseases.

Glycosidase activity in the excretory-secretory products of the liver fluke, Fasciola hepatica [PDF]

, 2004
Fasciola hepatica secretes proteolytic enzymes and other molecules that are essential for host penetration and migration. This mixture may include enzymes required for the degradation of supramucosal gels, which defend epithelial surfaces against ...

Identification and differentiation of Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica using a simple PCR-restriction enzyme method

, 2010
Accurate morphological differentiation between the liver fluke species Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica is difficult. We evaluated PCR-restriction enzyme profiles of internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) that could aid in their identification ...

Testing Albendazole Resistance in Fasciola hepatica

, 2020
The egg development test is a useful in vitro tool to detect albendazole (ABZ) resistance in Fasciola hepatica. ABZ is the only flukicidal compound with ovicidal activity. The described test is based on the ABZ capacity to affect parasite egg development and hatching in susceptible parasites, while this effect is lost in ABZ-resistant liver fluke ...
