Fate of Entamoeba histolytica during Establishment of Amoebic Liver Abscess Analyzed by Quantitative Radioimaging and Histology

Rigothier, Marie-Christine, Khun, Hout, Tavares, Paulo, Cardona, Ana, Huerre, Michel, Guillén, Nancy

The protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica is the causative agent of amoebiasis, a human disease characterized by dysentery and liver abscess. The physiopathology of hepatic lesions can be...

Roles of Cell Adhesion and Cytoskeleton Activity in Entamoeba histolytica Pathogenesis: a Delicate Balance

Tavares, Paulo, Rigothier, Marie-Christine, Khun, Huot, Roux, Pascal, Huerre, Michel, Guillén, Nancy

The protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica colonizes the human large bowel. Invasion of the intestinal epithelium causes amoebic colitis and opens the route for amoebic liver abscesses. The...
