Article Synopsis
- Hymenolepis diminuta, a common cestode found in wild rat populations, is rarely harmful to humans and has been researched for its potential benefits.
- Recent studies suggest that this organism may protect against inflammation-related disorders, making it a promising candidate for helminth therapy aimed at treating inflammatory diseases in Western societies.
- Genetic analysis of laboratory strains reveals that the isolates considered for therapy in the US and Europe are nearly genetically uniform, differing little from wild-caught versions, indicating a low level of diversity among them.
