Signal Transducers and Activators of Transcription (STAT) Family Members in Helminth Infections

International Journal of Biological Sciences, 2011
Helminth parasites are a diverse group of multicellular organisms. Despite their heterogeneity, helminths share many common characteristics, such as the modulation of the immune system of their hosts towards a permissive state that favors their ...

A type 2 immune circuit and arachidonic acid metabolism role in anti-nematode infection: evidence from transcriptome and targeted metabolome data in goat

Animal
The gastrointestinal nematode infection poses a covert threat to both humans and domestic animals worldwide, eliciting a type 2 immune response within the small intestine.

Gastrointestinal Parasites in Non-Human Primates in Zoological Gardens in Northern Italy

Animals
Non-human primates (NHPs) host a variety of helminth and protist parasites that are able to cause infection in humans. Gastrointestinal parasites in NHPs living in two zoological gardens of Northern Italy were studied.

SELECTION OF MARKER REGIONS OF GENES FOR THE MOLECULAR IDENTIFICATION OF HELMINTHS OF THE ASCARIDOIDEA SUPERFAMILY FOUND IN COD FISH

Eurasian Journal of Applied Biotechnology
In recent years, the consumption of imported fish has increased significantly in Kazakhstan, especially representatives of the cod family, which are characterized by a high level of parasitic invasion. Anisakidosis is a parasitic disease caused by nematodes of the Anisakidae family.

Protein profile of extracellular vesicles derived from adult Parascaris spp.

Parasites & Vectors
Background Parascaris spp. represent a significant threat to equine health worldwide, particularly in foals. The long-term survival of parasites in the host necessitates persistent modulation of the host immune response.

Gene expression profiling of two fish helminths throughout their complex life cycles. Are parasite’s life stages genetically decoupled?

Komplexe Lebenszyklen sind eine häufige, aber anspruchsvolle Lebensweise von Parasiten. Parasiten mit komplexen Lebenszyklen infizieren nacheinander mehrere Wirte und passen sich an verschiedene ökologische Nischen an. Werden in diesem Szenario dieselben Gene in allen Wirten einheitlich exprimiert?
