Co‐infection is now recognized as the natural state of affairs in most hosts and co‐infecting
parasites interact in a variety of ways that can impact host health and parasite fitness …

The human pathogenic nematode Strongyloides stercoralis infects approximately 30–100
million people worldwide. Analysis of the adaptive immune response to S. stercoralis …

Background Parasite infections can have substantial impacts on population dynamics and
are accordingly a key challenge for wild population management. Here we studied genetic …

Exposure to the dengue virus (DENV) evokes a variety of genetically-controlled
immunological responses. Genetic variants involved in viral entry, replication and innate …

Co-infections can alter the host immune responses and modify the intensity and dynamics of
concurrent parasitic species. The extent of this effect depends on the properties of the …

Background The global epidemiology of parasitic helminths and mycobacterial infections
display extensive geographical overlap, especially in the rural and urban communities of …

The presence of intestinal helminths can down-regulate the immune response required to
control mycobacterial infection. BALB/c mice infected with Mycobacterium bovis following an …

Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and primary biliary
cirrhosis (PBC) are considered as putative autoimmune diseases of the liver. Whereas …

les objectifs de cette thèse étaient de mieux comprendre comment sont liés diversité …

Autoimmune hepatitis is a progressive liver disease. Its pathogenesis is unclear, but needs a
'trigger'to initiate the disease in a genetically susceptible person. The susceptibility is partly …
