Welcome to my site, and the story it tells.. I am sorry it is a little messy just now. It was originally a simple WordPress driven blogging site for me, Jasper Lawrence to write on the subject of helminthic therapy and related topics.. Because it is not my primary site for conducting the business of helminthic therapy I have started using it as a test bed for various ideas and technologies I hope to use to improve the conduct of my business.. So I am using it now to construct a Woocommerce site to develop ideas and methods for selling helminthic therapy and related products and services using Bitcoins as a payment method, and to develop my experience and knowledge around the use of the open source payment gateway for processing Bitcoin payments BTCPay Server.. You can still find my blog posts on the page called Blog Posts.. For now you cannot use this site to purchase any of my services, for that you need to go here.. Thanks for visiting my site and all the best.. ...

How to care for the two species of human helminth used in helminthic therapy: Necator americanus (NA) and Trichuris trichiura (TT/TTO).
The use of helminthic therapy (the intentional infection of a patient with parasitic worms) to treat autoimmune diseases has enjoyed recent popularity for treatment of conditions as diverse as Crohns disease (1) and multiple sclerosis (2) . The jury is still out on its efficacy, however, and the thought of intentionally infecting patients with parasites for therapeutic purposes seems counterintuitive if not downright crazy. Part of the controversy stems from the conflicting reports as to exactly how helminthic therapy works. Some researchers suggest that helminthic therapy works by an evasive maneuver on the part of the parasitic worms to trick the immune system into producing the wrong kind of response, a type 2 cytokine response. (3) The authors of a recent study used helminthic therapy in a mouse model of non-obese diabetes (an autoimmune disorder) in order to attempt an answer to this question, which will be the focus of this blog post.

To confirm the expectation that the gut commensals of SPF SW and SPF C57BL6/N mice were diverse, 16S ribosomal sequencing analysis was undertaken. This characterization demonstrated that SPF SW mice harbored increased diversity of gut commensals when compared to the SPF C57BL6/N mice (Fig. 4A). Bacteroides was the most prominent genus in SW mice (Fig. 4B). We chose to evaluate the impact of the obligate anaerobe B. acidifaciens, an abundant gut commensal identified in SPF SW mice, on inducing IgA transcripts in the gut and EALT. Upon monocoloization, a 9.5-fold increase in IgA transcripts (P = 0.0328, 1-way ANOVA with Dunnetts comparisons test; Fig. 5) was noted in the colons at 21 days relative to day 0. Interestingly, LG IgA mRNA transcript levels at 21 days also increased 4.8-fold (P = 0.0001, 1-way ANOVA with Dunnetts comparison) relative to day 0. Gut SIgA protein levels increased after 14 days (51 ng/mL, P = 0.0001, 1-way ANOVA with Dunnetts multiple comparisons test) than that of day ...

I seen a great article today about the use and success of Helminthic therapy with Crohns and other autoimmune diseases. Please click on the below link to read the entire article. Also remember whenever you are reading something which comes from mainstream news that they always tend have a professional or expert discuss the risk of such treatments.......this is very consistent in almost every experts opinion of any natural protocol. Its funny because they do not publish all the insane side effects that come from your most commonly prescribed pharmaceuticals..........now do they? try searching a drug you are taking and you will see the side effects are almost as bad as the diseases itself. In this article they state the following Weinstock published results from the helminth study in 2005, which said that 23 out of 29 Crohns patients went into remission. Thats 79% remission rate which is INSANELY AWESOME!!! Now look at most pharmaceutical products on the market which only have to beat the ...

The gut microbiota (GM) displays a profound ability to adapt to extrinsic factors, such as gastrointestinal pathogens and/or dietary alterations. Parasitic worms (helminths) and host-associated GM share a long co-evolutionary relationship, exerting mutually modulatory effects which may impact the health of the host. Moreover, dietary components such as prebiotic fibers (e.g. inulin) are capable of modulating microbiota toward a composition often associated with a healthier gut function. The effect of helminth infection on the host microbiota is still equivocal, and it is also unclear how parasites and prebiotic dietary components interact to influence the microbiota and host health status. Some helminths, such as Trichuris suis (porcine whipworm), also exhibit strong immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory effects. We therefore explored the effects of T. suis, alone and in interaction with inulin, both in fecal microbiota during the infection period and luminal microbiota across four intestinal segments
Human helminthic parasites were considered as a therapeutic option. Many could not be used because there are no available sources other than a human carrier. Eggs from such a source would risk inadvertent transmission of pathogenic microbial agents. Also, some human helminths have disease potential or raise public health concerns.. Trichuris species are helminths with favourable characteristics for therapeutic use. Their life cycle minimises the risk of inadvertent colonisation. Trichuris ova mature in the soil and are ingested by the host. Ova hatch in the duodenum, releasing larvae that ultimately grow in 6-8 weeks into adult worms. They migrate to the terminal ileum and colon but do not invade the host. Worms can remain viable for 1-2 years in the natural host. Adult worms release ova that are shed into the stool. These ova are immature and are not capable of colonising another host until they incubate in the soil for several weeks to allow embryonation.. We chose T suis as the helminth to ...
The transcription factor BHLHE40 is an emerging regulator of the immune system. Recent studies suggest that BHLHE40 regulates type 2 immunity, but this has not been demonstrated in vivo. We found that BHLHE40 is required in T cells for a protective TH2 cell response in mice infected with the helminth Heligmosomoides polygyrus bakeri. H. polygyrus elicited changes in gene and cytokine expression by lamina propria CD4+ T cells, many of which were BHLHE40 dependent, including production of the common β (CSF2RB) chain family cytokines GM-CSF and IL-5. In contrast to deficiency in GM-CSF or IL-5 alone, loss of both GM-CSF and IL-5 signaling impaired protection against H. polygyrus. Overall, we show that BHLHE40 regulates the TH2 cell transcriptional program during helminth infection to support normal expression of Csf2, Il5, and other genes required for protection and reveal unexpected redundancy of common β chain-dependent cytokines previously thought to possess substantially divergent functions. ...

The idea is this: autoimmune disorders, in which the immune system, for varying reasons known and unknown, attacks a non-threatening substance or even body part, have risen in developed countries pretty much co-incident with the rise of widespread hygiene and the associated de-worming of our guts. According to Mental Floss, it took a dual-vocation gastrointologist and parasitologist and a long plane ride to notice this. As a gastrointologist, Dr. Joel Weinstock studied Chrohns Disease, in which the immune system attacks the intestines, leading to constant surgery and a generally very painful life outlook. He and his team decided to experiment with parasitic worms, to an astounding success rate. One example: in 2005 he infected 29 Crohns patients with Trichuris suis, a worm found in pigs and consequently, pig farmers, who tolerate them with little side effects. 23 patients showed improvements, 21 went into complete remission, according to a NY Times Article. Similar studies, by Dr. Weinstock ...

Animal models of IBD suggest that Tregs help to prevent excessive intestinal inflammation (4). The murine gut harbors large numbers of Foxp3+CD4+ Tregs. The colon and terminal ileum contain most of the intestinal flora. In the distal bowel, ∼25% of the lamina propria CD4+ T cells express Foxp3, and the Foxp3+ T cells are the major source of IL-10 (5). These cells likely function to restrain the host immune response to the normal intestinal flora.. Heligmosomoides polygyrus bakeri is a luminal murine helminth that lives in the proximal small bowel, with only the larval stages superficially invading the epithelial lining. This parasite expands the number of Foxp3+ T cells in the mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) (6, 7) and intestinal lamina propria of its murine host (5). The costimulatory receptor ICOS facilitates this Treg expansion (8). This helminth also activates Tregs, making them highly regulatory (5). Rag mice reconstituted with CD25−CD4+ T cells develop intestinal inflammation as a ...

Eicosanoids are key mediators of type-2 inflammation, e.g., in allergy and asthma. Helminth products have been suggested as remedies against inflammatory diseases, but their effects on eicosanoids are unknown. Here, we show that larval products of the helminth Heligmosomoides polygyrus bakeri (HpbE), known to modulate type-2 responses, trigger a broad anti-inflammatory eicosanoid shift by suppressing the 5-lipoxygenase pathway, but inducing the cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway. In human macrophages and granulocytes, the HpbE-driven induction of the COX pathway resulted in the production of anti-inflammatory mediators [e.g., prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and IL-10] and suppressed chemotaxis. HpbE also abrogated the chemotaxis of granulocytes from patients suffering from aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD), a severe type-2 inflammatory condition. Intranasal treatment with HpbE extract attenuated allergic airway inflammation in mice, and intranasal transfer of HpbE-conditioned macrophages led to ...
In fact, whipworm infection is actually the leading global cause of inflammatory bowel disease, and allergies have been linked to toxicara infestation in American cities, Hotez pointed out.. But Elliott argues that real-world examples indicate differently. South Korea recently launched a major helminth eradication program, and shortly thereafter, he said, Crohns disease appeared on the scene. Hotez counters, however, that an increase in inflammatory bowel diseases would also reflect massive changes in a variety of factors such as diet, lifestyle, and gut flora that also accompany development.. For villages in the middle of nowhere suffering as a result of hookworm infection, Elliott supports vaccine development. He points out, though, that individuals in need of vaccination also tend to have low intakes of protein and iron- two dietary deficiencies that lead to problems from otherwise relatively benign parasites.. Hotez, however, believes helminthic therapy is an unsafe practice whose ...

Thiophanate, administered at a dosage of 50 mg per kg to artifically infected pigs, removed 96 to 99 per cent of adult Oesophagostomum spp, Hyostrongylus rubidus and Trichuris suis. Activity was also high against larval stages of these nematodes, except for 26-day-old T suis. Thiophanate also showed ovicidal and larvicidal activity against H rubidus and Oesophagostomum spp. At 50 mg per kg thiophanate administered alone was inactive against Ascaris suum and Metastrongylus apri, the former species also being refractory at 200 mg per kg. Field trials confirmed these efficacy results in naturally infected animals. Pellet formulations providing mean dosages of 63 mg thiophanate per kg for adult pigs and 75 mg thiophanate per kg with 83 mg piperazine base per kg for growing pigs were highly effective in reducing the faecal output of Oesophagostomum spp, H rubidus and T suis eggs. In growing pigs, A suum was controlled by the thiophanate/piperazine product. No palatability or tolerance problems were ...

Helminths, including nematodes, cestodes and trematodes, are complex parasitic organisms that infect at least one billion people globally living in extreme poverty. Helminthic infections are associated with severe morbidity particularly in young children who often harbor the highest burden of disease. While each helminth species completes a distinct life cycle within the host, several helminths incite significant lung disease. This impact on the lungs occurs either directly from larval migration and host immune activation or indirectly from a systemic inflammatory immune response. The impact of helminths on the pulmonary immune response involves a sophisticated orchestration and activation of the host innate and adaptive immune cells. The consequences of activating pulmonary host immune responses are variable with several helminthic infections leading to severe, pulmonary compromise while others providing immune tolerance and protection against the development of pulmonary diseases.

Abnormal intestinal mucosal barrier integrity in concert with a high level of mucosal oxidants has been documented in patients with IBD.1-6 Despite substantial accumulation of evidence implicating oxidants in the pathogenesis of tissue damage in IBD5 6 the precise mechanism of oxidant induced loss of mucosal barrier function is poorly defined and merits further investigation.. The actin component of the cytoskeleton is one of the most abundant proteins in the eukaryotic cytosol with the ability to polymerise into filaments of highly dynamic alpha double helices.8 9 In epithelial cells such filaments make up a dense cross linked actin cortex located on the inner side of the plasma membrane. Actin also comprises filamentous stress fibres which traverse the cytosol and constitute short fibres extending into the lamellipodia in motile cells.10 This structural element is essential in maintaining normal cellular physiology, structure, locomotion, and support functions.7-11 The actin based skeleton ...
