1. Host-Pathogen Responses during Giardia infections
Abstract : Giardia lamblia is a eukaryotic parasite of the upper small intestine of humans and animals. The infecting trophozoite cells do not invade the epithelium lining of the intestine, but attach to the brush border surface in the intestinal lumen. The giardiasis disease in humans is highly variable. READ MORE

2. Regulation of differentiation during the Giardia life cycle : An insight into the molecular control
Abstract : Giardia intestinalis (syn. G. lamblia, G. duodenalis) is an intestinal protozoan parasite that causes diarrheal infections worldwide. READ MORE

3. The interplay between Giardia intestinalis and host intestinal epithelial cells : A tale of immune activation and suppression
Abstract : Giardia intestinalis is a non-invasive, protozoan parasite causing the diarrheal disease giardiasis in a variety of mammals, including humans. The parasite has two main life cycle stages; disease-causing trophozoites and infectious cysts. Trophozoites colonize the host’s upper small intestine by attaching to intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). G. READ MORE

4. Studies of Giardia-host interactions: role of cysteine-rich surface proteins
Abstract : Giardia intestinalis is a eukaryotic parasite that colonizes the small intestine of humans and animals causing the diarrheal disease known as giardiasis. This parasite is not invasive and does not internalize into host cells but it rather attaches to the brush border surface of the small intestine disrupting the epithelial barrier. READ MORE

5. Inter and Intra-Assemblage Characterizations of Giardia intestinalis: from clinic to genome
Abstract : The protozoan parasite Giardia intestinalis (syn. G. lamblia, G. duodenalis) is one of the most common causes of diarrheal disease throughout the world, where an estimated 500 million people are infected annually. READ MORE
