Parasitic helminths and the host microbiome – a missing ‘extracellular vesicle-sized’ link?
9 Jul 2022
Abstract excerpt
Infections by gastrointestinal (GI) helminths have been associated with significant alterations of the structure of microbial communities inhabiting the host gut. However, current understanding of the biological mechanisms that regulate these relationships is still lacking. We propose that helminth-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) likely represent key players in helminth-microbiota crosstalk. Here, we explore...
