Helminth parasite communities of two Physalaemus cuvieri Fitzinger, 1826 (Anura: Leiuperidae) populations under different conditions of habitat integrity in the Atlantic Rain Forest of Brazil
(Int Inst Ecology, 2015-11-01)
Adults of Physalaemus cuvieri were collected and necropsied between November 2009 and January 2010. This was carried out in order to report and compare the helminth fauna associated with two populations of this anuran ...
RNA Interference and Nonspecific Controls in Parasitic Helminths

Living apart and having similar trouble: Are frog helminth parasites determined by the host or by the habitat?
(2016-09-12)
Sympatric hosts are exposed to similar ecological conditions, particularly if they are closely related phylogenetically and share some physiological and behavioral traits. We studied the sympatric frogs Leptodactylus ...
Intestinal helminths in wild rodents from native forest and exotic pine plantations (pinus radiata) in central Chile
(MDPI, 2021)
Land-use changes are one of the most important drivers of zoonotic disease risk in humans, including helminths of wildlife origin. In this paper, we investigated the presence and prevalence of intestinal helminths in wild ...
No impact of helminth coinfection in patients with smear positive tuberculosis on immunoglobulin levels using a novel method measuring Mycobacterium tuberculosis-specific antibodies.
(Springer, 2023)
Helminth/tuberculosis (TB)-coinfection can reduce cell-mediated immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and increase disease severity, although the effects are highly helminth species dependent. Mtb have long ...
Helminths turning on the NLRP3 inflammasome: Pros and cons
(Elsevier, 2020-02)
Helminth infections can activate multimeric protein complexes called inflammasomes. In this forum we summarize the main effects of the NLRP3 inflammasome activation, including control of excessive Th2 response and ...
Helminth community structure of 13 species of anurans from Atlantic rainforest remnants, Brazil
(2018-07-01)
This study aimed to evaluate the community composition and structure of the helminths found in 13 anuran species, and to evaluate whether this parasite community is determined by anuran characteristics. We found that the ...

Helminth Diversity in Synanthropic Rodents from an Urban Ecosystem
(Springer, 2017-09)
Richness and diversity of parasites depend on a set of interrelated factors related to the characteristics of the host, the environment and the parasites itself. In the City of Buenos Aires, rodent communities vary according ...
