These eukaryotes have caused human infections since before our earliest recorded history …

In this review article, we aim to provide an overview of fasciolosis in ruminants. Diagnosis
through new coprological methods (such as Flukefinder®, FLOTAC®, and Mini-FLOTAC®) …

The sex of a host affects the intensity, prevalence, and severity of helminth infection. In many
cases, one sex has been found to be more susceptible than the other, with the prevalence …

Abstract Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by helminths play an important
role in parasite-host communication. However, little is known about the characteristics and …

The preventive situation of parasitosis, a global public health burden especially for
developing countries, is not looking that good. Similar to other infections, vaccines would be …

In this study, the immunogenicity and protective capacity of a new recombinant vaccine
candidate, the rFh14-3-3z protein was analysed in sheep experimentally challenged with …

Protein kinases have been discussed as promising druggable targets in various parasitic
helminths. New drugs are also needed for control of fascioliasis, a food-borne trematode …

Fasciola hepatica infection continues to be a major problem in the agriculture sector,
particularly in sheep and cattle. Cathepsin L and B proteases are major components of the …

Oral vaccination with edible vaccines is one of the most promising approaches in modern
vaccinology. Edible vaccines are an alternative to conventional vaccines, which are typically …
