Rare Infectious Diseases: Detection and Clinical Implications

iLABMED, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 148-157, June 2025.
Rare infectious diseases are infections that are uncommon, have a low incidence, and are caused by newly emerging pathogens, cross‐species or ectopic infections, or host immunodeficiencies. The detection and diagnosis of rare infections is one of the main reasons for misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis.

Granulomatous amoebic encephalitis caused by Balamuthia mandrillaris.

Neurologia medico-chirurgica, 2013
A 51-year-old immunocompetent Japanese woman presented with a rare case of granulomatous amoebic encephalitis (GAE) caused by Balamuthia mandrillaris. She was brought to our hospital with epilepsy. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed a homogeneously enhanced solitary mass in the left frontal lobe.

Acanthamoeba Infection in a Hematopoietic Cell Transplant Recipient: Challenges in Diagnosis, Management, and Source Identification

Transplant Infectious Disease, Volume 27, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
Acanthamoeba infection in HCT recipients, represent multiple challenges. Early diagnosis, and effective treatment, remain the main barriers to survival. High index of suspicion, may help in identifying cases earlier. Given its ubiquiteness, source identification remains challenging.

Acanthamoeba castellanii–Mediated Reduction of Interleukin‐1β Secretion and Its Association With Macrophage Autophagy

Scientifica, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Noncanonical autophagy including unconventional protein secretion has been extensively studied. Our work focused on a leaderless IL‐1β protein secretion from human macrophage in response to Acanthamoeba castellanii components, Acanthamoeba culture supernatant (CS) and cell lysate (CL), as well as its association with macrophage autophagy.

Occurrence of small free-living amoebae from natural water resources

Environment Conservation Journal, 2009
Small  free-living amoebae are also  called  as amphizoic amoebae,  because of their capability to exist both  as free-living  as well  as opportunistically  pathogenic.

Amebicidal and Antiadhesion Activities of Knema retusa Extract Against Acanthamoeba triangularis T4 Genotype on Contact Lenses and Modeling Simulation of Its Main Compound, E2N, Against Acanthamoeba Beta‐Tubulin

Scientifica, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Medicinal plants have been used as alternative agents for the treatment of infections. This study aimed to investigate bioactivities of medicinal plant extracts including Knema retusa extract (Kre) against Acanthamoeba triangularis T4 in vitro and in silico. Anti‐Acanthamoeba activities of 44 extracts from 5 plant species were determined.
