ABSTRACT Introduction Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a serious global health concern. CE an endemic zoonotic disease in Iran. The substantial genetic diversity of Echinococcus granulosus closely linked to its life cycle, transmission mechanisms and pathogenesis. This study aimed explore the phylogenetic structure genotypes E. sensu lato (s.l.) southwestern Iran (SWI). Methods Seventy‐two hydatid cyst samples were collected from various intermediate hosts, including goats, cattle, sheep,...

Background: Fresh vegetables are an important part of a healthy diet. In recent years there has been increase in the number reported cases food-borne illness regarding fresh vegetables. Objectives: The objective this study was to evaluate parasitological contamination which consumed raw and commercialized Zahedan, Iran. These findings could lead better practices handling protect against intestinal parasitic infections. Materials Methods: We studied 96 samples including Garden cress, Wild...

PCR has been used for confirmation of leishmaniasis in epidemiological studies, but complexity DNA extraction and approach confined its routine use developing countries.In this study, recent situation cutaneous (CL) two hyper-endemic metropolises Shiraz Isfahan Iran was studied using by commercial FTA cards kinetoplastid (kDNA)-PCR amplification detection/identification Leishmania directly from stained skin scraping imprints.Fifty four 30 samples were collected clinically diagnosed CL...

The current study aimed at the seroepidemiological survey of human cystic echinococcosis (CE) in nomadic people Boyer-Ahmad District southwest Iran. One thousand and five nomads were selected by cross-sectional sample collection tribes Blood samples taken from each individual, sera tested for detection anti-hydatid cyst antibodies using antigen B-ELISA. A predesigned questionnaire which contained basic epidemiological individual information related to hydatid was filled subject during...

Abstract Background Trichostrongylus is one of the most important zoonotic trichostrongylid nematodes, infecting mostly livestock. Data on its genetic characteristics are lacking in Iran. Methods We determined phylogenetic relationships species three counties Kohgiloyeh and Boyerahmad (K-B) province, southwest Small intestine abomasum 70 sheep goats were investigated. Results A total 35 isolates worms detected all genetically identified as vitrinus . Analysis 321 bp internal transcribed...

Background: Toxoplasmosis is a zoonotic parasitic disease that affects many different species, including humans. It can cause serious clinical symptoms, neurological symptoms and abortion. Toxoplasma gondii, the causative agent, particularly concerning due to sheep's extraordinary sensitivity disease. spread zoonotically through ingestion of undercooked meat from infected animals. Numerous global investigations have demonstrated T. gondii seroprevalence in sheep vary greatly based on...

Prevalence of enterobius vermicularis infection among preschool children Khash city kindergartens, Iran in 2012

Abstract Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is caused by the larval form of Echinococcus granulosus that can cause serious health and economic problems in endemic foci. CE globally distributed various climatic conditions from circumpolar to tropical latitudes. Iran an important area with a spectrum weather conditions. The aim this study was determine effects geo-climatic factors on distribution livestock south-western (SWI) 2016 2018. Data were retrieved veterinary organizations four provinces SWI....

Background: In the current study, we described epidemiological features, clinical presentation, diagnosis and management of patients with suspicion fascioliasis in Kohgiluyeh Boyer-Ahmad Province southwest Iran. Methods: Overall, 56 fascioliasis, based on their signs symptoms that referred to Clinic Internal Medicine Yasuj city, from 2014 2016 were enrolled. Demographic data, history eating aquatic local plants, chief complains, laboratory findings recorded for each patient. Stool samples...

Doxorubicin (DOX) is a common chemotherapeutic agent, with toxic side effects, and chemoresistance. Combination chemotherapy successful approach to overcome these limitations. Here, we investigated the effects of pioglitazone (PGZ), PPARγ agonist, and/or DOX on viability, cell cycle, apoptosis THP-1 cells normal human monocytes (NHMs).MTT assay was used evaluate cytotoxicity PGZ. Cell cycle progression induction were examined by PI or Annexin V-PI double staining, analyzed flow cytometry....

Background: Genetic diversity has provided Plasmodium falciparum with the potential capacity of avoiding immune response, and possibly supported natural selection drug or vaccine-resistant parasites. Merozoite surface protein-3 (MSP-3) been used to develop vaccines investigate genetic regarding P. malaria in Iran. Objectives: The main goal this study was analyze polymorphic antigen MSP-3 genes across southeast Iran among four different districts, identify differences allele frequency...

The Erythrocyte Binding Antigen-175 (EBA-175) on Plasmodium falciparum (P.falciparum) merozoites mediates sialic acid dependent binding to glycophorin a host erythrocytes and, therefore, plays crucial role in cell invasion. Dimorphic allele segments have been found its encoding gene with FCR-3 strains (F-segment) and CAMP (C-segment). This study was designed determine the distribution of EBA-175 alleles P.falciparum South-East Iran. Nested Polymerase Chain Reaction method used specific...
