Host-Parasite Interaction in the Urinary Tract [PDF]

open access: possibleJournal of Urology, 1988
The 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.

Host—Parasite Interactions in Molluscs [PDF]

open access: possible, 1996
The phylum Mollusca is second only to the Arthropoda in both number and diversity of living species. Representatives include not only the readily recognized gastropods (snails, slugs and limpets) and bivalves (e.g., oysters, mussels and clams) but also the ‘brainy’ cephalopods including octopus and squid, and more primitive representatives such as ...

Genetics of host-parasite interactions

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1997
The evolution of host susceptibility or resistance to parasites has important consequences for the evolution of parasite virulence, host sexual selection, population dynamics of both host and parasite populations, and programs of biological control. The general observation of a fraction of Individuals within a population that is not parasitized, and/or

Host–parasite interactions in a fragmented landscape

International Journal for Parasitology, 2013
Theory suggests that habitat fragmentation should reduce the risk of being parasitised due to reduced size and increased isolation of the host population. It is predicted that a threshold host population size exists, below which parasites will not be able to persist.

Host-Parasite Interactions

2016
Ontogeny and differentiation of cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage are currently subjects of intense research. The concept of the macrophage as “simple” phagocytic cell has undergone profound changes. It has now been established that this myeloid lineage of cells is phenotypically and functionally much more diverse and exerts a much wider ...

Host-Parasite Interactions

2014
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.

Local adaptation and host–parasite interactions

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1998
The reciprocal transplant experiment is a test to detect the existence of adaptive genetic structure. It compares the performance of parasites (e.g. infectivity, within-host growth rate and survival) on native and novel environments (which can be different host individuals, populations, or species). Controls are required for the conditioning effects of

Host/Parasite Interactions in Bacterial Endophthalmitis

Zentralblatt für Bakteriologie, 1997
Bacterial 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,

Signals in Host-Parasite Interactions

1997
Plants are resistant to most potential pathogens in their environment; in fact, relatively few true host-pathogen pairs exist in which the plant is susceptible and the pathogen virulent. Within a susceptible plant species, specific cultivars carry genes which give them resistance to specific pathogen races harboring the corresponding avirulence genes ...
