Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <bold>Background:</bold> Filarial worms are important vector-borne pathogens of a large range of mammalian hosts, including humans and are responsible for some of the most pervasive, and pernicious diseases within the tropics. In humans, lymphatic filariasis caused by <italic>Wuchereria bancrofti </italic>and<italic> Brugia </italic>spp.<italic>, </italic>as well as loiasis caused by <i...
