Regulation of immunity and allergy by helminth parasites

open access: yesAllergy. European Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2020
There is increasing interest in helminth parasite modulation of the immune system, both from the fundamental perspective of the “arms race” between host and parasite, and equally importantly, to understand if parasites offer new pathways to abate and ...

Detection of human intestinal protozoan parasites in vegetables and fruits: a review

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2020
Diarrheal diseases caused by intestinal protozoan parasites are a major food-borne public health problem across the world. Vegetables and fruits provide important nutrients and minerals, but are also common sources of some food-borne human pathogenic ...

Protein profiling of hemolymph in Haemaphysalis flava ticks

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2022
Background Tick hemolymph bathes internal organs, acts as an exchange medium for nutrients and cellular metabolites, and offers protection against pathogens. Hemolymph is abundant in proteins.

Within-host transmission strategies of transovarial, feminizing parasites of Gammarus duebeni [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The amphipod Gammarus duebeni harbours several species of vertically transmitted, feminizing microsporidian parasites. G. duebeni were collected from 3 localities in the UK. Animals from Budle Bay, Northumberland, were infected with Octosporea effeminans,

Investigation into limiting dilution and tick transmissibility phenotypes associated with attenuation of the S24 vaccine strain

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2019
Background Babesia bovis is the causal agent of Asiatic redwater, transmitted by the pandemic tick Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus. Disease control may target the tick vector using acaricides or anti-tick vaccines, or the parasite using ...

Are all hosts created equal? Partitioning host species contributions to parasite persistence in multihost communities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Many parasites circulate endemically within communities of multiple host species. To understand disease persistence within these communities, it is essential to know the contribution each host species makes to parasite transmission and maintenance ...
