Echinococcus granulosus cyst fluid enhances epithelial - mesenchymal transition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Aims Cystic Echinococcosis is characterised by fluid filled hydatid cysts in the liver and lungs. The cysts are surrounded by a host fibrous layer (the pericyst) which acts to isolate the parasite from surrounding tissues.

Serum Metabolomics of Patients with Hepatic Cystic Echinococcosis

open access: yesBiomedical Chromatography, Volume 39, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Hepatic cystic echinococcosis (HCE), a liver manifestation of hydatid disease, is among the 17 neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) prioritized by the WHO for eradication by 2025. Although imaging and serological tests are currently the main diagnostic approaches for HCE, they have notable limitations in sensitivity and specificity.

Progress on the development of rapid diagnostic tests for foodborne neglected zoonotic helminthiases : a systematic review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Foodborne Neglected Zoonotic Helminths (FNZH) are parasites of both economic and public health importance. They include Taenia solium, Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato, Echinococcus multilocularis and Foodborne trematodes (FBT).

Pulmonary Hydatid Cyst Mimicking Both Tuberculous Cavity and Aspergilloma: A Diagnostic Challenge in an Endemic Region

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Cystic echinococcosis (CE), caused by Echinococcus granulosus, is a zoonotic disease endemic in many pastoral regions. Pulmonary involvement, although less common than hepatic, may present with nonspecific respiratory symptoms and mimic other pathologies such as tuberculosis, posing a diagnostic challenge.

Disseminated alveolar echinococcosis resembling metastatic malignancy: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2017
Background Alveolar echinococcosis is a potentially lethal zoonosis caused by larval forms of the tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. Humans are aberrant intermediate hosts who become infected by ingestion of egg-contaminated food or water or via ...

The first meeting of the European Register of Cystic Echinococcosis (ERCE) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
6 páginas, 3 figuras, 1 tablaCystic echinococcosis (CE) is a zoonotic parasitic disease endemic in southern and eastern European countries. The true prevalence of CE is difficult to estimate due to the high proportion of asymptomatic carriers who never ...

Spatiotemporal Transcriptomic Profiling Reveals the Dynamic Immunological Landscape of Alveolar Echinococcosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 18, May 15, 2025.
An unprecedented high‐resolution spatial atlas of the E. multilocularis infection foci is obtained, revealing the dynamic functions of neutrophils, Spp1+ macrophages, and fibroblasts during disease progression. The transition of parasite control strategy from “active killing” to “negative segregation” by the host may provide instructive insights into ...

Spatiotemporal Transcriptomic Profiling Reveals the Dynamic Immunological Landscape of Alveolar Echinococcosis (Adv. Sci. 18/2025)

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 18, May 15, 2025.
Echinococcus Multilocularis In article number 2405914, Wan‐Zhong Jia, Junhua Li, Hong‐Bin Yan, and co‐workers decipher the shift in host (Nezha) immune response strategies from “active killing” to “negative segregation” during Echinococcus multilocularis hepatic infection.

Disseminated Alveolar Echinococcosis.

open access: yesAlbanian Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2021
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is caused by the larval form of the tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. In humans, E. alveolaris metacestode cells proliferate in the liver inducing a hepatic disorder that mimics liver cancer and can spread to other organs.
