Abstract:
As a major member of innate immunity, macrophage can eliminate pathogens through cell phagocytosis, antigen presentation and immune regulation, and play an important role in parasitic infections such as Echinococcus. Echinococcus can regulate the function of host macrophages through a variety of parasite-derived molecules, such as protein and nucleic acid molecules, and realize long-term parasitism in the host. This article focuses on the research progress of the role of macrophages in echinococcosis and the regulation of macrophages by parasite-derived molecules.
