The gut microbiota plays an important role in parasite-host interactions and the induction of immune defense responses. Trichinella spiralis is an important zoonotic parasite that can directly or indirectly interact with the host in the gut. Changes in the gut microbiota following infection with T. ...
This project aimed to explore novel anticancer therapeutics from products of parasite since several data related to benefits from the T. spiralis infection have been documented. We validated antitumor activity of T. spiralis infective larval extract and extricate the parasite-derived-antitumor pepti...
We describe the first comprehensive study confirming the existence of DNA methylation, characterising the methylomes of three life stages of the food-borne agent of human trichinellosis, Trichinella spiralis. We further identify sets of genes where the DNA methylation status varied between thedevelo...
