This volume described basic and advanced protocols to study F. hepatica parasite biology. Chapters guide readers through protocols on different developmental stages of F. hepatica, characterize tegumental, secreted proteins, spatial and temporal gene expression, immunological effects of ESP on macrophages, eosinophil apoptosis, macrophages alternative activation, toll-like receptor interactions, obtain peritoneal and splenic dendritic cells of mice, and protocols to detect F. hepatica albendazole resistance. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Authoritative and cutting-edge, Fasciola hepatica: Methods and Protocols provides different topics in areas such a biochemistry, immunology, molecular biology, microscopy, vaccinology in order to extend the interest in this book to research community working with Fasciola hepatica and related trematodes.
