Liver Flukes and the Microbiota in Cancer [PDF]
EBioMedicine, 2016 Tumor development is a multifactorial process, influenced by both genetic and environmental pressures. A small number of chronic infectious agents have been designated carcinogenic, including viruses (hepatitis B, C and HPV), bacteria (Helicobacter pylori) and parasites (De Martel et al., 2012).

Prospects for liver fluke vaccines
Experimental Parasitology, 2021 Fasciola spp., Opisthorchis spp. and Clonorchis sinensis are common liver flukes that can cause a variety of diseases, mainly cholangiocarcinoma induced by clonorchiasis and liver damage and associated pathology induced by fascioliasis. Because these trematodes are parasites of humans and domestic animals, they have greatly affected the economy of ...

Drug resistance in liver flukes
International Journal for Parasitology: Drugs and Drug Resistance, 2020 Liver flukes include Fasciola hepatica, Fasciola gigantica, Clonorchis sinensis, Opisthorchis spp., Fascioloides magna, Gigantocotyle explanatum and Dicrocoelium spp. The two main species, F. hepatica and F. gigantica, are major parasites of livestock and infections result in huge economic losses. As with C. sinensis, Opisthorchis spp. and Dicrocoelium
