The role of fibroblast growth factor signalling in Echinococcus multilocularis development and host-parasite interaction.
BACKGROUND:Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a lethal zoonosis caused by the metacestode larva of the tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. The infection is characterized by tumour-like growth of the metacestode within the host liver, leading to extensive fibrosis and organ-failure. The molecular mech...
