Nat Commun
. 2025 Feb;
16(1):1589.
PMID: 39939598
The intestine is a site of diverse functions including digestion, nutrient absorption, immune surveillance, and microbial symbiosis. Intestinal microRNAs (miRNAs) are detectable in faeces and regulate barrier integrity, host-microbe interactions...

Parasite Immunol
. 2022 May;
44(8):e12936.
PMID: 35586956
In endemic regions concurrent infection with multiple gastrointestinal (GI) helminth species is more common than single species infection. However, the majority of model helminth infections focus on single species infections...

Nat Commun
. 2022 Apr;
13(1):1725.
PMID: 35365634
Whipworms are large metazoan parasites that inhabit multi-intracellular epithelial tunnels in the large intestine of their hosts, causing chronic disease in humans and other mammals. How first-stage larvae invade host...

Parasitology
. 2021 Jun;
:1-7.
PMID: 34075864
Trichuris, whipworm nematode infections are prevalent in humans, domestic livestock and mammals. All share an epithelial dwelling niche and similar life cycle with the chronic infections that follow implying that...

J Exp Med
. 2019 Oct;
216(12):2714-2723.
PMID: 31582416
Host immunity to parasitic nematodes requires the generation of a robust type 2 cytokine response, characterized by the production of interleukin 13 (IL-13), which drives expulsion. Here, we show that...

10(1):2344.
PMID: 31138806
Infection by soil transmitted parasitic helminths, such as Trichuris spp, are ubiquitous in humans and animals but the mechanisms determining persistence of chronic infections are poorly understood. Here we show...

Manipulation of host and parasite microbiotas: Survival strategies during chronic nematode infection
White E, Houlden A, Bancroft A, Hayes K, Goldrick M, Grencis R, et al.
Sci Adv
. 2018 Mar;
4(3):eaap7399.
PMID: 29546242
Intestinal dwelling parasites have evolved closely with the complex intestinal microbiota of their host, but the significance of the host microbiota for metazoan pathogens and the role of their own...

8(1):4508.
PMID: 29540816
Trichuris trichiura (whipworm) is one of the four major soil-transmitted helminth infections of man, affecting an estimated 465 million people worldwide. An effective vaccine that induces long-lasting protective immunity against...
