Strongyloides stercoralis, a roundworm, and Entamoeba histolytica, another tropical parasite, were found along with hookworm in some stool samples.

In 1984, during an expedition to Nepal’s Annapurna massif, he’d picked up a gastrointestinal parasite, Entamoeba histolytica, which he was unable to entirely purge from his body over the years that followed.

They can block a roll call of gut villains, including Salmonella; Listeria; Vibrio cholerae, the culprit behind cholera; Campylobacter jejuni, the most common cause of bacterial diarrhea; Entamoeba histolytica, a vora­cious amoeba that causes dysentery and kills a hundred thousand people every year; and many virulent strains of E. coli. H.M.O.s may even be able to obstruct H.I.V., which might explain why more than half of infants who suckle from infected mothers don’t get infected, despite drinking virus-loaded milk for months.

Amoeba Takes Bites of Human Cells to Kill Them Scientists have never before seen this method of cell killing Entamoeba histolytica parasites ingesting bites of human cells.

Investigators analyzed the amoeba Entamoeba histolytica.
