Abstract: Inflammation is a hallmark of the acute Babesia canis infection. Promatrix metalloproteinase (proMMP)-2 and -9 are involved in inflammation, but their levels have not been analyzed in canine babesiosis. We hypothesized that in dogs infected… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.864632
Abstract: IL-17 is a cytokine produced by innate and acquired immunity cells that have an action against fungi and bacteria. However, its action in helminth infections is unclear, including in Toxocara canis infection. Toxocariasis is a… read more here.
