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.

Hookworm Disease: Host-Pathogen Biology
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1982The hallmark of hookworm infection, a common helminthic disease, is iron deficiency anemia. The development of anemia is dependent on the intensity of infection, the species of hookworm, and the ability of the host to resist infection and to maintain adequate stores of iron. When conditions are appropriate, the incidence of anemia caused by hookworm is

Biology of host-macroparasite associations
1991Abstract Many important diseases of humans, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions, arise from infection by macroparasites or metazoan (multicellular) organisms. The major parasites belong to the helminth and arthropod groups, and include flukes (the trematodes), tapeworms (the cestodes), nematodes, lice, fleas, and ticks ...

The Biology of Viroid-Host Interactions
Annual Review of Phytopathology, 2009Viroids are single-stranded, circular, and noncoding RNAs that infect plants. They replicate in the nucleus or chloroplast and then traffic cell-to-cell through plasmodesmata and long distance through the phloem to establish systemic infection. They also cause diseases in certain hosts.

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 ...

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 ...

Parasite Biology: The Reservoir Hosts
2018Leishmaniases are worldwide vector-borne diseases with diverse clinical manifestations caused by protozoa belonging to genus Leishmania. About 20 named Leishmania species are pathogenic for humans and are annually responsible for 0.7–1.2 million cases of cutaneous and 0.2–0.4 million cases of visceral forms of the disease. According to the transmission

Fungal host shifts: bias or biology?
Fungal Ecology, 2012Summary Heilmann-Clausen & Laessoe (2012) have commented that our recent paper ( Gange et al. 2011 ) concerning Auricularia auricula-judae and its apparent expansion in host range, perhaps in response to climate change, is open to question. Instead they suggest that the changes observed may be due more to an alteration in the quality of fungal ...
