Infection with Liver Flukes

of hepatic aflatoxIn Bi and N-nitrosodiethylamine in infected males and 20-40% in infected females (Kirby et al., 1994). Immunohistochemical analysis of aflatoxIn Bi-DNA adducts in parasitized animaIs indicated that the greatest numbers of adducts occurred in the regions of highest CYP2A activity. Studies with a related liver fluke, Fasciola hepatica, also showed enhanced cyochrome P450-related...

Liver Flukes and the Microbiota in Cancer

Tumor development is a multifactorial process, influenced by both specific microbial signature. These findings will require verification in genetic and environmental pressures. A small number of chronic infectious agents have been designated carcinogenic, including viruses (hepatitis B, C and HPV), bacteria (Helicobacter pylori) and parasites (De Martel et al., 2012). Further, general microbial...

Liver Flukes: the Malady Neglected

Liver fluke disease is a chronic parasitic inflammatory disease of the bile ducts. Infection occurs through ingestion of fluke-infested, fresh-water raw fish. The most well-known species that cause human infection are Clonorchis sinensis, Opisthorchis viverrini and Opisthorchis felineus. Adult flukes settle in the small intrahepatic bile ducts and then they live there for 20-30 years. The long-...
