Parasitism and physiological trade-offs in stressed capybaras [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Parasites play a key role in regulating wildlife population dynamics, but their impact on the host appears to be context-dependent. Evidence indicates that a synergistic interaction between stress, host condition and parasites is implicated in this ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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.

Lungworm seroprevalence in free-ranging harbour seals and molecular characterisation of marine mammal MSP

open access: yesInternational Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2016
Harbour seals (Phoca vitulina) are frequently infected with the lungworms Otostrongylus circumlitus and Parafilaroides gymnurus. The infection is often accompanied by secondary bacterial infections and can cause severe bronchopneumonia and even death in ...
