Parasites are designed by evolution to invade the host and survive in its organism until they
are ready to reproduce. Parasites release a variety of molecules that help them to penetrate …

Parasitic helminths have a coexistence with mammalian hosts whereby they survive for
several years in known hostile conditions of their hosts. Many explanations exist describing …

Complete genome DNA sequence and analysis is presented for Wolbachia, the obligate
alpha-proteobacterial endosymbiont required for fertility and survival of the human filarial …

Relatively little is known about the filarial proteins that interact with the human host. Although
the filarial genome has recently been completed, protein profiles have been limited to only a …

Previous studies demonstrated that the Caenorhabditis elegans GST-p24 is upregulated at
the steady state mRNA level in response to oxidative stress [1]. A transcriptional …

Root‐knot nematodes of the genus Meloidogyne are obligate biotrophic parasites able to
infest> 2000 plant species. The nematode effectors responsible for disease development …

Introduction While we lack a complete understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which
parasites establish and achieve protection from host immune responses, it is accepted that …

Lymphatic filariasis, one of the most debilitating diseases associated with the lymphatic
system, affects over a hundred million people worldwide and manifests itself in a variety of …

This study describes a novel phage display method based on an iterative subtraction
strategy to identify candidate vaccine antigens of Brugia malayi. A cDNA library of the …

We report the cloning and expression of Ac-GST-1, a novel glutathione S-transferase from
the adult hookworm Ancylostoma caninum, and its possible role in parasite blood feeding …
