Arguello-Garcia R, Carrero J, Ortega-Pierres M
Int J Mol Sci . 2023 Aug; 24(16). PMID: 37629029
Intestinal diseases caused by protistan parasites of the genera (giardiasis), (amoebiasis), (cryptosporidiosis) and (blastocystosis) represent a major burden in human and animal populations worldwide due to the severity of diarrhea...

Quezada-Lazaro R, Vazquez-Cobix Y, Fonseca-Linan R, Nava P, Hernandez-Cueto D, Cedillo-Pelaez C, et al.
Int J Mol Sci . 2022 Nov; 23(21). PMID: 36362435
In giardiasis, diarrhoea, dehydration, malabsorption, weight loss and/or chronic inflammation are indicative of epithelial barrier dysfunction. However, the pathogenesis of giardiasis is still enigmatic in many aspects. Here, we show...

PLoS Pathog . 2022 Sep; 18(9):e1010840. PMID: 36166467
Giardia duodenalis causes giardiasis, a major diarrheal disease in humans worldwide whose treatment relies mainly on metronidazole (MTZ) and albendazole (ABZ). The emergence of ABZ resistance in this parasite has...
