Adrian J. Wolstenholme - Infectious Diseases

Author Information

Adrian J. Wolstenholme is affiliated with the Department of Infectious Diseases and the Center for Tropical and Emerging Global Diseases at the University of Georgia, Athens, GA, USA. His work primarily focuses on parasitic nematodes, drug susceptibility, and resistance mechanisms, contributing significantly to the field of infectious diseases.

Research Contributions

Adrian J. Wolstenholme has made substantial contributions to the study of parasitic nematodes, particularly in the context of drug resistance and susceptibility. His research includes the examination of avermectin/milbemycin receptors and the genetic structure of parasites like Haemonchus contortus and Dirofilaria immitis. His studies have also explored the effects of drugs like ivermectin and emodepside on nematodes, as well as the interaction of auxiliary proteins with receptor subunits in forming functional receptors. His work is crucial in understanding anthelmintic resistance and developing strategies to combat it.
