Figure 2. IFA detection of rTsSPc binding with RAW264.7 macrophages The RAW264.7 macrophages were incubated with rTsSPc protein at 37 °C for 2 h. Different sera (1:20; anti-rTsSPc serum, infected serum, or pre-immune serum) were used as the primary antibody, and CY3-labeled anti-mouse IgG (1:100) was used as the secondary antibody. Cell nuclei were stained blue with DAPI. The specific binding of rTsSPc to the RAW264.7 macrophages was observed under a fluorescence microscope. Each test had three replicates. Scale bar: 5 μm.

Parasitology at the heart of the "One Health" concept: a longstanding alliance illustrated by cysticercosis control The "One Health" concept, emphasizing the interdependence of human, animal, and ecosystem health, has gained renewed global attention and institutional support from the World Health Organization, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, United Nations Environment Program, and World Organization for Animal Health. Here we underline that some principles of parasitology are embedded in this concept. As early as the 19th century, Rudolf Virchow affirmed the unity of human and...
