Differences in transcription between free-living and CO_2-activated third-stage larvae of Haemonchus contortus [PDF]

, 2010
Background: The disease caused by Haemonchus contortus, a blood-feeding nematode of small ruminants, is of major economic importance worldwide. The infective third-stage larva (L3) of this gastric nematode is enclosed in a cuticle (sheath) and, once

Dynamics of intestinal parasite infection in Przewalski's horses reintroduced to Pre-Urals Steppe, Orenburg State Nature Reserve (Russia)

Nature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука, 2019
The first successful reintroduction programme for the Przewalski's horse in Russia was launched by FSFI «Orenburg Reserves» in 2015. A total of 36 Przewalski's horses were brought to the Pre-Urals Steppe site from semi-reserves in France and Hungary in ...

Increased expression of a microRNA correlates with anthelmintic resistance in parasitic nematodes [PDF]

, 2017
Resistance to anthelmintic drugs is a major problem in the global fight against parasitic nematodes infecting humans and animals. While previous studies have identified mutations in drug target genes in resistant parasites, changes in the expression ...

Are sleeping site ecology and season linked to intestinal helminth prevalence and diversity in two sympatric, nocturnal and arboreal primate hosts (Lepilemur edwardsi and Avahi occidentalis)?

BMC Ecology, 2018
Background Various factors, such as climate, body size and sociality are often linked to parasitism. This constrains the identification of other determinants driving parasite infections. Here, we investigate for the first time intestinal parasites in two

Macrophage Activation and Functions during Helminth Infection: Recent Advances from the Laboratory Mouse

Journal of Immunology Research, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Macrophages are highly plastic innate immune cells that adopt an important diversity of phenotypes in response to environmental cues. Helminth infections induce strong type 2 cell‐mediated immune responses, characterized among other things by production of high levels of interleukin‐ (IL‐) 4 and IL‐13.
