Nowadays, drug resistance in parasites is considered to be one of the foremost concerns in
health and disease management. It is interconnected worldwide and undermines the health …

The amitochondriates are an assembly of unicellular protists that lack mitochondria, and
often other typical eukaryotic organelles, such as peroxisomes. Relatively little research has …

Here, we present evidence that a cysteine protease (EhCP112) and a protein with an
adherence domain (EhADH112) form the Entamoeba histolytica 112 kDa adhesin …

Transcriptional silencing of the gene coding for amoebapore A (AP-A) was observed when
trophozoites of Entamoeba histolytica were transfected with a hybrid plasmid construct …

Infections with protozoa parasites are associated with high burdens of morbidity and
mortality across the developing world. Despite extensive efforts to control the transmission of …

In this review we discuss the mechanisms and molecules involved in the multidrug
resistance (MDR) of the protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica. Drug resistant mutants …

Recent studies have increased our knowledge of Entamoeba histolytica cell biology and
gene regulation. In the ameba, dominant-negative mutations in the Gal/GalNAc lectin affect …

Methods: Forty five clinical isolates of Entamoeba sp.[E. histolytica (15) and E. dispar (30)]
were maintained in polyxenic followed by monoxenic medium. DNA and total RNA were …

This paper reports the identification of Ehp53, a p53-like Entamoeba histolytica protein,
which binds to the human p53 DNA consensus sequence (oli-p53). Monoclonal antibodies …

Entamoeba histolytica transmembrane kinases (EhTMKs) can be grouped into six distinct
families on the basis of motifs and sequences. Analysis of the E. histolytica genome …
