This notion implies different evolutionary strategies of host exploitation. Typically, parasites establish long-term infections and induce relatively little mortality, as they often limit pathological changes by modulating host cells and downregulating adverse immune responses. Their pattern of distribution tends to be endemic rather than epidemic. Despite these seemingly benign traits, parasites usually cause substantial chronic morbidity, thus constituting an enormous socioeconomic burden in humans, particularly in resource poor countries, and in livestock worldwide. Parasite-induced fitness costs are an evolutionary force that can shape populations and contribute to species diversity. Therefore, a thorough understanding of parasites and parasitic diseases requires detailed knowledge of the respective biochemical, molecular and immunological aspects as well as of population genetics, epidemiology and ecology. This Research Topic (RT) bridges disciplines to connect molecular, immunological and wildlife aspects of parasitic infections. The RT puts emphases on four groups of parasites: Plasmodium, Toxoplasma, Giardia and intestinal helminths. Co-infections are also covered by the RT as they represent the most common form of parasite infections in wildlife and domestic animal populations. Within the four types of parasites the following topics are addressed: (1) Experimental models: hypothesis testing, translation and limits. (2) Critical appraisal of experimental models. (3) Natural systems: Technological advances for investigations in natural parasite-host systems and studies in natural systems. (4) The urgent need for better models and methods in natural parasite systems. Hence, the RT covers and illustrate by the means of four main parasitic infections the parasite-host system at the molecular, cellular and organismic level.Parasite InfectionsPlasmodislemacexperimental modelGiardiaHelminthnatural systemParasite InfectionPlasmodiumProtozoaToxoplasmaPlasmodisToni Aebischerauth1329310Susanne HartmannauthKai MatuschewskiauthBOOK9910346737603321Parasite Infections: From Experimental Models to Natural Systems3039411UNINA03339nam 22010933 450 991084698370332120250905110038.0978363187872936318787299783631878682363187868010.3726/b19743(CKB)4920000002157843(BIP)083453020(BIP)085937075(MiAaPQ)EBC31361052(Au-PeEL)EBL31361052(ODN)ODN0009381226(EXLCZ)99492000000215784320240605d2022 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe Civil Administration of Eastern Territories (1919-1920) The Reasons for the Failure of Piłsudski's Federation Idea1st ed.Frankfurt a.M. :Peter Lang GmbH, Internationaler Verlag der Wissenschaften,2022.©2022.1 online resource (IV, 580 p.) illPolish Studies - Transdisciplinary Perspectives Series ;v.409783631878736 3631878737 9783631866221 3631866224 Between 1919 and 1920, the eastern territories of the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth were temporarily administered by the Civic Management of Eastern Territories, established by Józef Piłsudski, the leader of the Polish Army.
