Acanthamoeba interactions with human brain microvascular endothelial cells.

Microbial pathogenesis - 1 Dec 2003

Alsam Selwa, Kim Kwang Sik, Stins Monique, Rivas Antonio Ortega, Sissons James, Khan Naveed Ahmed

Abstract excerpt

Acanthamoeba are opportunistic protozoan parasites that can cause fatal granulomatous amoebic encephalitis, however, the pathogenic mechanisms associated with this disease remain unclear. One of the primary factors in Acanthamoeba encephalitis is the haematogenous spread, followed by invasion of...
