Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases (immunophilins) and their roles in parasite biochemistry, host-parasite interaction and antiparasitic drug action. [PDF]

, 2006
Immunophilin is the collective name given to the cyclophilin and FK506-binding protein (FKBP) families. As the name suggests, these include the major binding proteins of certain immunosuppressive drugs: cyclophilins for the cyclic peptide cyclosporin A ...

Small RNAs and extracellular vesicles in filarial nematodes: from nematode development to diagnostics [PDF]

, 2016
Parasitic nematodes have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to communicate with their hosts in order to survive and successfully establish an infection. The transfer of RNA within extracellular vesicles (EVs) has recently been described as a mechanism that

Improving helminth genome resources in the post-genomic era

Trends in Parasitology, 2022
Rapid advancement in high-throughput sequencing and analytical approaches has seen a steady increase in the generation of genomic resources for helminth parasites. Now, helminth genomes and their annotations are a cornerstone of numerous efforts to compare genetic and transcriptomic variation, from single cells to populations of globally distributed ...

The genome of the thin-necked bladder worm Taenia hydatigena reveals evolutionary strategies for helminth survival

Communications Biology, 2021
Wang and colleagues report a high quality draft genome for the thin-necked bladder worm, an agricultural livestock parasitic pest. Using this draft genome and comparison with other related parasites, they reveal gene families that are selectively ...

The Echinococcus canadensis (G7) genome: A key knowledge of parasitic platyhelminth human diseases [PDF]

, 2017
Background: The parasite Echinococcus canadensis (G7) (phylum Platyhelminthes, class Cestoda) is one of the causative agents of echinococcosis. Echinococcosis is a worldwide chronic zoonosis affecting humans as well as domestic and wild mammals, which ...

Current epidemiological evidence for predisposition to high or low intensity human helminth infection: a systematic review

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Background The human helminth infections include ascariasis, trichuriasis, hookworm infections, schistosomiasis, lymphatic filariasis (LF) and onchocerciasis. It is estimated that almost 2 billion people worldwide are infected with helminths.

What helminth genomes have taught us about parasite evolution [PDF]

Parasitology, 2014
SUMMARYThe genomes of more than 20 helminths have now been sequenced. Here we perform a meta-analysis of all sequenced genomes of nematodes and Platyhelminthes, and attempt to address the question of what are the defining characteristics of helminth genomes.
