Inflammatory Responses to Opisthorchis viverrini Infection in Animal Models: A comparison between susceptible and non-susceptible hosts in different anatomical locations [PDF]
Background: Inflammation caused by Opisthorchis viverrini infection increases the risk of cholangitis, cholecystitis, and lead to bile duct cancer (cholangiocarcinoma or CCA). However, only certain infected individuals are susceptible to CCA, suggesting
