Project description:The helminth Acanthocheilonema viteae serves as model organism for research on parasitic filarial nematodes. Total RNA secreted or excreted by 1500 adult female and male A. viteae over 3 weeks was isolated from culture media previously processed by differential ultracentrifugation, and subjected to miRNA sequencing.
Project description:We report the presence of circulating miRNAs released by the filarial nematode Dirofilaria immitis into the host (Canis familiaris) bloodstream.
Project description:This study addresses the effect that the sex of the mammalian host, Meriones unguiculatus, has on the filarial nematode, Brugia pahangi
