Helminth infection-induced carcinogenesis: spectrometric insights from the liver flukes, <i>Opisthorchis</i> and <i>Fasciola</i>
2019-04-11
Abstract excerpt
Chronic infections with the flatworm parasites Opisthorchis viverrini, Clonorchis sinensis and Schistosoma haematobium are classified as group 1 biological carcinogens, i.e. definitive causes of cancer.

By contrast, infections with close phylogenetic relatives including Fasciola hepatic...
