RNA sequencing reveals dynamic expression of genes related to innate immune responses in canine small intestinal epithelial cells induced by Echinococcus granulosus protoscoleces

Abstract excerpt

Background Dogs are definitive hosts of Echinococcus granulosus, with the small intestine being the only site of parasitic infections. However, the immunomodulatory processes that occur during interactions between E. granulosus and its definitive host remain unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate gene transcription patterns in canine small intestinal epithelial cells (CIECs) following stimulation by E....
