Donor-derived fatal hyperinfection strongyloidiasis in renal transplant recipient

open access: yesIDCases, 2020
Strongyloides stercoralis is a nematode, endemic in tropical and subtropical areas. Strongyloidiasis has been reported in recipients of hematopoietic stem cells, kidney, liver, heart, intestine, and pancreas, eventually presenting as disseminated ...

Regulatory T cell expansion in HTLV-1 and strongyloidiasis co-infection is associated with reduced IL-5 responses to Strongyloides stercoralis antigen. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2009
Human strongyloidiasis varies from a chronic but limited infection in normal hosts to hyperinfection in patients treated with corticosteroids or with HTLV-1 co-infection. Regulatory T cells dampen immune responses to infections.

Endoparasite Prevalence in the Mountain Bongo (Tragelaphus eurycerus spp. isaaci) at Mount Kenya Wildlife Conservancy

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Parasite–host interactions influence the success of wildlife reintroductions. The mountain bongo (Tragelaphus eurycerus isaaci) is a critically endangered antelope found only in Kenya's montane forests, with fewer than 100 remaining in the wild. It is, therefore, imperative to re‐establish a viable, healthy, and self‐sustaining population in its native

Strongyloides hyperinfection in an HIV-positive kidney transplant recipient: a case report

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2020
Background Strongyloidiasis is caused by the helminth Strongyloides stercoralis and is well-recognised amongst transplant recipients. Serious complications, including Strongyloides hyperinfection which is a syndrome of accelerated autoinfection, or ...

Strongyloides spp. [PDF]

open access: yesWormBook, 2007
Strongyloides is a genus of parasitic nematodes, which, unusually, has a free-living adult generation. Here we introduce the biology of this genus, especially the fascinating, but complex, life-cycle together with an overview of the taxonomy, morphology, genetics and genomics of this genus.

Transcriptomic and Proteomic Analyses Show Minimal Role for ST2 on MCPT5‐Expressing Mast Cells in Primary Heligmosomoides polygyrus bakeri Infection

open access: yesParasite Immunology, Volume 48, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The IL‐33/ST2 pathway is important as part of the type 2 immune response against helminth infections. Mast cells express the highest levels of the IL‐33 receptor subunit ST2 of any immune cell, and mast cells can mediate type 2 immune inflammation; however, the role of IL‐33‐driven mast cell responses in helminth infection is poorly understood.
