Amebiasis: Host-Pathogen Biology
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1982Invasive amebiasis caused by Entamoeba histolytica, and particularly amebic liver abscess, is a major public health problem in Mexico and some other countries because of the high incidence and mortality of this disease. This paper first discusses the pathogenic effect of E.

Malaria: Host-Pathogen Biology
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1982The development of resistance to insecticides by anopheline mosquito vectors of malaria and of resistance to drugs by Plasmodium falciparum pose new challenges for malaria control programs. The establishment of methods for the continuous cultivation in vitro of plasmodia provided an important new tool for research into the cellular biology and ...

The Biology of Cystitis: Host and Bacterial Factors
Annual Review of Medicine, 1999Cystitis is caused by a relatively small number of bacterial species. To colonize and grow in the urinary tract, these organisms have developed and acquired special properties (virulence factors) that allow them to overcome the defences of the urinary tract, particularly clearance by urine flow.

Ascariasis: Host-Pathogen Biology
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1982Ascaris lumbricoides is one of the most common intestinal parasites in humans. Daily global contamination of the soil by A. lumbricoides eggs is enormous (approximately 9 x 10(14) eggs/day). Physical factors, particularly temperature and moisture, are critical in determining the maturation of eggs to the infective stage and their survival. Transmission

Biology and Host Relationships
1967It is well known that aphidiids are all primary, solitary, internal parasites of aphids. Many excellent papers on biology, ecology and host relationships of the Aphidiidae have appeared within the past few years, and even though it is not our intent to review or discuss these subjects to any great degree, it seems important to mention some of them, as ...

TORYMUS SINENSIS: BIOLOGY, HOST RANGE AND HYBRIDIZATION
Acta Horticulturae, 2014Torymus sinensis is a solitary ectophagous parasitoid of the chestnut gallwasp, Dryocosmus kuriphilus. It originates, like its host, from China. Following the accidental introduction and rapid range expansion of the pest in Japan (in the 40s),USA (70s) and Italy (2000s), T.

The Biology of Hookworms in Their Hosts
The Quarterly Review of Biology, 1930D U URING the last quarter of a century a great deal of attention has been given to the group of parasites known as the hookworms, which infest man and certain animals. The chief reason for this attention has been the importance of these parasites in the field of public health, but out of the work have come many observations which are of interest from ...

Biology of Graft-vs.-Host Disease
Journal of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology, 1993Graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD) is a major complication of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation, which is an important approach for the treatment of various diseases. In experimental animal models, lethal GVHD can be induced in major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-matched strain combinations that differ in their expression of multiple minor ...

Lactobacilli biology, applications and host interactions
Nature Reviews MicrobiologyLactobacilli encompass more than 300 species, spanning 25 genera, found in the microbiomes of humans, animals and plants with relevance in agriculture, foods and medicine. Lactobacilli comprise all bacteria previously assigned to the Lactobacillus genus and, similar to other lactic acid bacteria, are characterized by their saccharolytic, fermentation ...

Biology of Cryptosporidium from marsupial hosts
Experimental Parasitology, 2010The majority of biological data on Cryptosporidium has been collected from humans and domestic animal hosts which creates a bias in knowledge on the biodiversity and evolution of this parasite genus. Further to understanding Cryptosporidium biology are studies encompassing broad hosts that represent diverse taxa sampled across wide geographic ranges ...
