Hookworms Evade Host Immunity by Secreting a Deoxyribonuclease to Degrade Neutrophil Extracellular Traps [PDF]

, 2020
Hookworms cause a major neglected tropical disease, occurring after larvae penetrate the host skin. Neutrophils are phagocytes that kill large pathogens by releasing neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), but whether they target hookworms during skin ...

The Strongyloides stercoralis-hookworms association as a path to the estimation of the global burden of strongyloidiasis: A systematic review [PDF]

, 2020
Soil-transmitted helminths (STH) represent a significant public health problem. However, Strongyloides stercoralis is not yet integrated into the control strategy against STH, given limitations to accurately assess its burden.
