Manipulation of apoptosis in the host–parasite interaction
Trends in Parasitology, 2004Abstract Nearly all animal cells possess the capacity to undergo programmed cell death (apoptosis) when stimulated by an appropriate trigger. Apoptosis is crucial for maintaining social order among the cells comprising metazoans, but it also has other functions: the existence of apoptosis in single-celled organisms implies a degree of interaction ...

The immune system represents a complicated assemblage of coordinated genes, proteins, cells and tissues. The field of ecological immunology (EI) is founded on the assumption that immunological defenses incur costs (energetic or fitness) under different ecological conditions.

HOST-PARASITE INTERACTIONS DURING PREGNANCY
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1978The point that host defense against infectious disease is exceedingly complex scarcely needs further emphasis. We have tried to show that pregnancy is a state which has the potential for altering any of the many facets of host defense, and in some instances presented evidence that pregnancy does alter resistance to infection.

, 2023 Host-Parasite Interaction in the Urinary Tract
Journal of Urology, 1988The term urinary tract infection (UTI) describes a heterogeneous group of disorders localized to the urinary tract [1]. Bacteriuria may be associated with clinical conditions of varying severity and consequence. The analysis of these conditions may be based on several factors.

Stochastic host-parasite interaction models
Journal of Mathematical Biology, 2000We contribute to the discussion of causes and effects of aggregation (overdispersion) of macroparasite counts, focussing particularly upon the effects of clumped infections and parasite-induced host mortality. The simple nonlinear stochastic model for the evolution of the parasite load of a single host, investigated in Isham (1995), is extended to ...

Host/Parasite Interactions in Bacterial Endophthalmitis
Zentralblatt für Bakteriologie, 1997Bacterial infections within the eye arise as complications of intraocular surgery, penetrating injury, or hematogenous spread from distant anatomical sites. Because: 1) the interior surfaces of the eye are lined with sensitive, nonregenerating tissues, 2) the inner chambers of the eye are relatively sequestered from circulating immunological components,

All organisms have evolved defence mechanisms for protection against invasion and establishment by micro-organisms and by metazoan parasites. Although ideally we should include the viruses and bacteria in our current discussion, space precludes such a full consideration.

Host–parasite interactions in polluted environments
Journal of Fish Biology, 2008In recent years, there has been an increasing number of papers showing how parasitism and pollution can interact with each other in aquatic organisms. In addition to synergistic negative effects of both stressors, there are also indications of antagonistic interactions.
