Published in 2021 at "Transboundary and emerging diseases"

DOI: 10.1111/tbed.14089

Abstract: Dirofilaria immitis and Dirofilaria repens are mosquito-borne filaroids of zoonotic concern, which primarily cause canine heartworm disease (HWD) and subcutaneous dirofilariosis, respectively. The geographical distribution of these nematodes is constantly changing, due to many factors… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Veterinary World"

DOI: 10.14202/vetworld.2022.239-243

Abstract: Background and Aim: Although cats are not natural hosts for heartworm infections (Dirofilaria immitis), evidence suggests that feline heartworm disease can be detrimental because of a severe inflammatory response. Recent studies have found that infection… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Iranian Journal of Parasitology"

DOI: 10.18502/ijpa.v15i1.2527

Abstract: Background: Dirofilariasis is a globally distributed arthropod-borne parasitic disease of mainly canids and felids. We evaluated to extend the knowledge of morpho-molecular characteristics and outer ultrastructure of Dirofilaria immitis isolated from Northwest of Iran. Methods:… read more here.
