Key Regulators of Parasite Biology Viewed Through a Post‐Translational Modification Repertoire

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Parasites are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in both humans and animals, imposing substantial socioeconomic burdens worldwide. Controlling parasitic diseases has become one of the key issues in achieving “One Health”. Most parasites have sophisticated life cycles exhibiting progressive developmental stages, morphologies, and ...

Human anaerobic intestinal "rope" parasites [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
Human intestinal helminths are described in this paper. They can be over a meter long, with an irregular cylindrical shape, resembling a rope. These anaerobic intestinal "rope" parasites differ significantly from other well-known intestinal parasites. Rope parasites can leave human body with enemas, and are often mistaken for intestinal lining, feces ...

Variation in prevalence and intensity of macroparasites in moose and their interactions with winter tick load in eastern Canada

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wild animals are infected with a large diversity and abundance of parasites that can affect their behavior, growth, body condition, and ultimately their survival. Although the adverse effects of parasites and the mechanisms involved in the interactions between a host and its parasites are generally well studied, much less is known about the additive or

Immunomodulation by Helminths: Intracellular Pathways and Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Helminth parasites are masters at manipulating host immune responses, using an array of sophisticated mechanisms. One of the major mechanisms enabling helminths to establish chronic infections is the targeting of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs ...

Why are our roe deer short of breath? – prevalence and promotive factors of lung parasites in roe deer Capreolus capreolus in south‐eastern Germany

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The existence of bronchopulmonary nematodes in German roe deer Capreolus capreolus is well documented, with two types of lung parasites that have been described previously: Dictyocaulus capreolus and Varestrongylus capreoli. However, little is known about the impact of these parasites on their host animal or which parameters influence outbreak and ...

Predicting the risk and speed of drug resistance emerging in soil-transmitted helminths during preventive chemotherapy

open access: yesNature Communications
Control of soil-transmitted helminths relies heavily on regular large-scale deworming of high-risk groups (e.g., children) with benzimidazole derivatives.

Modelling Within-Host Immune Response to Visceral Helminthiasis and Malaria Co-infection with Prophylaxis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2011
In this paper, a co-infection of malaria and visceral helminthiasis with immune stimulation and impairment is studied. We have assumed that an individual gets malaria infection during invasion by helminths larvae. In absence of immune response, our results show that the antigens invade the blood system if the rate of red cell rupture per invading ...

Helminths in rodents from Wet Markets in Thailand

open access: yesHelminthologia, 2016
Only a few surveys have ever been carried out of the helminths of the commensal rodents found in the traditional wet markets that play such an important part of daily life in South-east Asia.
