To investigate the effect of cystic echinococcosis (CE) on liver damage, we developed a secondary experimental echinococcosis in Swiss mice by intraperitoneal inoculation of viable protoscoleces. Mice were randomly allocated into three groups: Ctrl group, PBS group, and CE group. Mice were euthanized and associated indications were investigated to evaluate inflammatory and fibrotic responses in liver.

We aimed to assess the effect of exogenous Interleukin (IL)-17A in experimental model of echinococcosis. Swiss mice were inoculated intra-peritoneally with viable protoscoleces (PSCs). Then, IL-17A was administered at 100, 125 or 150 pg/mL two weeks after cystic echinococcosis (CE) induction.
