A study on prevalence of some helminthic infections of the liver and lungs among ruminants in abattoir of Fars province, Iran
Zoonotic helminths are often transmitted to humans through domestic animals. This retrospective study was performed to estimate the prevalence of some important zoonotic helminthic infections of the liver and lung including echinococcosis, fasciolosis and dicrocoeliasis in Kazerun and Shiraz abattoirs, Fars, Iran, during 2011-2013. A total of 12381 sheep, 6473 cattle, 22847 goats, 66 camels, an...
متن کاملReduced helminth burden increases allergen skin sensitization but not clinical allergy: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in Vietnam.
BACKGROUND Observational evidence suggests that infection with helminths protects against allergic disease and allergen skin sensitization. It is postulated that such effects are mediated by helminth-induced cytokine responses, in particular IL-10. OBJECTIVE We tested this hypothesis in a rural area of central Vietnam where hookworm infection is endemic. METHODS One thousand five hundred an...
متن کاملEnzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Western blot antibody determination in sera from patients diagnosed with different helminthic infections with Anisakis simplex antigen purified by affinity chromatography.
An evaluation of the sensitivity and the specificity of the Anisakis simplex antigens purified by affinity chromatography was performed using sera from patients diagnosed with Anisakis sensitisation and sera from patients previously diagnosed with different helminthic infections. Only the sera of the patients diagnosed with Schistosoma mansoni or Onchocerca volvulus parasitic infections were ne...
متن کاملSchistosome Infection Intensity Is Inversely Related to Auto-Reactive Antibody Levels
In animal experimental models, parasitic helminth infections can protect the host from auto-immune diseases. We conducted a population-scale human study investigating the relationship between helminth parasitism and auto-reactive antibodies and the subsequent effect of anti-helminthic treatment on this relationship. Levels of antinuclear antibodies (ANA) and plasma IL-10 were measured by enzyme...
متن کاملThe aetiology of bronchial asthma and critical assesment of therapy
S. Romagnanl (Italy) stressed that in the past few years great progress has been made in the knowledge of the cellular and molecular signals responsible for the regulation of human immunoglobulin E (IgE) synthesis. Interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interferon-gamma (IFN-y) are the main regulatory cytokines of lgE production, with opposite effects. T helper (Tii) cells producing IL-4 and IL-5, but no, or...
