Anthelmintic Activity and Pathophysiological Effect of <i>Allium sativum</i> Extract-Based Copper Nanoparticles Against the Carcinogenic Liver Fluke, <i>Opisthorchis viverrini</i>. [PDF]

J Parasitol Res
Opisthorchis viverrini has a significant role in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), a leading cause of death in northeastern Thailand. Although praziquantel (PZQ) remains the standard treatment for O. viverrini infections, its use is associated with adverse side effects, and prolonged administration may increase the risk of CCA. In response, the Thai government
