Serological Evidence of Soil‐Transmitted Helminth Infections as a Potential Risk for Severity in Leprosy Patients

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 30, Issue 10, Page 1115-1123, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Leprosy presents a broad clinical spectrum influenced by the host's immune response, and co‐infections may further modulate disease progression. This study evaluated clinically diagnosed leprosy patients (n = 251) from Sergipe and Minas Gerais, Brazil, along with healthy controls (n = 43), soil‐transmitted helminths‐positive controls (n = 15),

Variation in prevalence and intensity of macroparasites in moose and their interactions with winter tick load in eastern Canada

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 5, September 2025.
Wild animals are infected with a large diversity and abundance of parasites that can affect their behavior, growth, body condition, and ultimately their survival. Although the adverse effects of parasites and the mechanisms involved in the interactions between a host and its parasites are generally well studied, much less is known about the additive or

New Perspectives on Classical Alarmin Responses to Intestinal Helminth Infection

Parasite Immunology, Volume 47, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Interleukins 33, 25, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) are core components of type two immune responses and have been studied extensively using helminth infection models. However, many questions remain regarding their cellular sources, their immune recipients, as well as how they shape immunity.

Trichuriasis in Human Patients from Côte d’Ivoire Caused by Novel Trichuris incognita Species with Low Sensitivity to Albendazole/Ivermectin Combination Treatment

Emerging Infectious Diseases
Albendazole/ivermectin combination therapy is a promising alternative to benzimidazole monotherapy alone for Trichuris trichiura control. We used fecal DNA metabarcoding to genetically characterize Trichuris spp. populations in patient samples from Côte
