Summary Background Some helminth infections are negatively associated with the prevalence of allergic disorders, arguing for a modulation reactions by parasites, depending on worm species, intensity and phase infection type disease. Objective The aim this study was to analyse influence chronic gastrointestinal nematode Heligmosomoides polygyrus , in murine model airway disease atopic dermatitis (AD), respectively. Methods Mice were infected H. systemically sensitized allergen ovalbumin....
Abstract Infections with parasitic worms are often long lasting and associated modulated immune responses. We analyzed the influence of nematode Heligmosomoides polygyrus bakeri dwelling in small intestine on concurrent protozoan infection Eimeria falciformis residing cecum. To dissect effects a early versus chronic phase, we infected animals E. 6 or 28 days post H. p. infection. Only led to an increased replication parasite, whereas worm had no control . Increased correlated reduced...
Abstract A cat with multiple subcutaneous nodules suggesting a soft tissue sarcoma by physical and computed tomographic examination was diagnosed as being affected filariosis based on cytologic ultrasonographic assessments. Nodules were surgically removed extracted nematodes identified PCR Dirofilaria repens . Furthermore, DNA of Dipetalonema dracunculoides (syn. Acantocheilonema ) detected , no evidence circulating microfilariae. To the best authors' knowledge, this represents first report...
