Bacteria-induced egg hatching differs for Trichuris muris and Trichuris suis [PDF]
Background Eggs of the porcine whipworm Trichuris suis are currently explored in human clinical trials as a treatment of immune-mediated diseases. In this context, only the infective, embryonated eggs, constitute the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API)

A genetic analysis of Trichuris trichiura and Trichuris suis from Ecuador [PDF]
Background Since the nematodes Trichuris trichiura and T. suis are morphologically indistinguishable, genetic analysis is required to assess epidemiological cross-over between people and pigs.

Differentiation of Trichuris species using a morphometric approach [PDF]
Trichuris trichiura is a nematode considered as the whipworm present in humans and primates. The systematics of the genus Trichuris is complex. Morphological studies of Trichuris isolated from primates and humans conclude that the species infecting these

Differential Effect of Ivermectin on Intestinal Helminths in Multimmate Mouse (Mastomys natalensis). [PDF]
Mastomys natalensis harbours gastrointestinal helminths of public health and food‐safety importance. This study identified five helminth taxa and assessed faecal egg counts after a single ivermectin dose. Egg counts declined substantially in treated rodents but changed little in controls over eight weeks.

Vaccination With Trichuris muris Poly-Cysteine and Histidine-Tailed Protein p43 Protects Against Chronic Infection. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Trichuris trichiura is one of the soil transmitted geohelminths which together currently affect approximately 25% of the global population resulting in considerable morbidity particularly in children and young adults. Recent estimates put infection by T. trichiura at approximately 513 million.

Survey of Gastrointestinal Parasites of Farmed Pigs in Ghana. [PDF]
Survey of Gastrointestinal Parasites of Farmed Pigs in Ghana Gastrointestinal parasites were common in pigs sampled from Kpone Katamanso Municipality, Ghana, with an overall prevalence of 67.6%. Complementary formol–ether concentration, modified McMaster, and modified Ziehl–Neelsen techniques improved parasite detection, while polymerase chain reaction

Selective Packaging of miR-22 and miR-29 Orthologues into Extracellular Vesicles of the Porcine Whipworm Trichuris Suis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Helminths modulate host immunity, and in this respect, the porcine whipworm Trichuris suis has been explored clinically as an immunotherapy for inflammatory diseases. T. suis secretes a complex mixture of excretory/secretory products (ESP), including extracellular vesicles (EVs), nanosized membranous particles with bioactive cargoes of lipids,

Activity of oxantel pamoate monotherapy and combination chemotherapy against Trichuris muris and hookworms : revival of an old drug [PDF]
BACKGROUND: It is widely recognized that only a handful of drugs are available against soil-transmitted helminthiasis, all of which are characterized by a low efficacy against Trichuris trichiura, when administered as single doses.
