Fecal microbiota transplantation from protozoa-exposed donors downregulates immune response in a germ-free mouse model, its role in immune response and physiology of the intestine Open
Intestinal parasites are part of the intestinal ecosystem and have been shown to establish close interactions with the intestinal microbiota. However, little is known about the influence of intestinal protozoa on the regulation of the immu…

Longitudinal anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody immune response in acute and convalescent patients Open
Despite global efforts to assess the early response and persistence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in patients infected with or recovered from COVID-19, our understanding of the factors affecting its dynamics remains limited. This work aimed to …

Amoebiasis: Advances in Diagnosis, Treatment, Immunology Features and the Interaction with the Intestinal Ecosystem Open
This review of human amoebiasis is based on the most current knowledge of pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, and Entamoeba/microbiota interactions. The most relevant findings during this last decade about the Entamoeba parasite and the di…

The regulatory function of Blastocystis spp. on the immune inflammatory response in the gut microbiome Open
Blastocystis spp. is a unicellular organism that resides in digestive tract of various vertebrates, with a worldwide distribution and a variable prevalence. For many years, Blastocystis spp. was considered a cyst of a flagellate, a fungus,…

High Prevalence and Diversity of Caliciviruses in a Community Setting Determined by a Metagenomic Approach Open
Human caliciviruses are important etiological agents of acute gastroenteritis in children under 5 years of age. Several studies have characterized their association with childhood diarrhea and their presence in nondiarrheal stool samples.

Cervical Squamous Intraepithelial Lesions Are Associated with Differences in the Vaginal Microbiota of Mexican Women Open
Human papillomavirus (HPV) plays a critical role in cervical carcinogenesis but is not sufficient for cervical cancer development, indicating the involvement of other factors. The vaginal microbiota is an important factor in controlling in…

Differential Pathogenic Gene Expression of E. histolytica in Patients with Different Clinical Forms of Amoebiasis Open
The etiological agent of human amoebiasis is the protozoan parasite E. histolytica; the disease is still an endemic infection in some countries and the outcome of infection in the host infection can range from asymptomatic intestinal infec…
