Parasitic infections with the hookworms Ancylostoma ceylanicum and Necator americanus are a significant global health burden and current hookworm infection management approaches are limited by modest drug efficacy, costs, risk of reinfection and drug resistance. Subunit vaccines based on proteins ex...

Hookworms are parasitic nematodes that chronically infect 170-440 million people, despite healthy human immune systems ending most infections quickly. How hookworms successfully overcome host resistance is unclear, but is thought to involve hookworm proteins that either digest host tissues or dampen...
