Editorial: Recent trends in infection biology and control of protozoan parasites
نویسندگان
چکیده
Other protozoan infections with medical and veterinary significance include those transmitted by ticks, such as babesiosis theileriosis. The burden of diseases is expected to increase globally due the lack approved vaccines, ineffective treatments, evolution medication resistance, globalization climate change, a general neglect parasitic diseases. Researchers must therefore make further efforts devise novel strategies control parasites address current challenging scenario (1-3).There an urgent need for creative solutions reduce severe health risks financial losses caused Novel approaches important problems in this sector, methods developing effective vaccinations, accurate diagnostic tools, drug discovery, have been targeted. Also, recent experimental approaches, solid data, helpful information were sought guide assist relevant research community.In Research Topic, four manuscripts accepted publication based on relevance scope, novelty, significance, high quality preparation authors. Three studies investigated aspects vaccination treatment regimen T. gondii malaria using murine models

متن کاملIntroduction: A special issue on cellular biology of protozoan parasites.
It is estimated that more than half of the human population, plus a much greater number of domestic and wild animals, suffer from parasitic infections. The magnitude of the problem can be illustrated by estimates of more than 100 million cases and 1 million deaths each year from malaria alone. Parasites adapt to different environments and hosts, and it is therefore not surprising that they, man...
متن کاملProtozoan Parasites
When viewed from the top, Trichodina is circular; side views of the organism reveal a saucer or dome shape (Fig. 1). It has three rings of cilia (small, hair-like projections) encircling its body and oral cavity, which are used for locomotion and feeding. Its body is supported by a rigid ring of interconnected discs called a chitinoid or denticular ring (Fig. 2). Each disc has a thorn-like inne...
متن کاملMucins in protozoan parasites.
Studies on host-pathogen interactions have led to the discovery of various cell surface associated and secretory molecules. Mucins and mucin-like molecules have recently been described in several protozoan parasites, at different stages of the life cycle. These share many structural and compositional features with mammalian mucins, but vary in several other aspects. It is now becoming evident t...
