background
Trichinellosis is a cosmopolitan parasitic disease due to nematodes of the Trichinella genus, constituted of twelve different taxa. Humans are a parasitical deadlock and get infected by ingestion of raw or undercooked meat that contain infesting larvae (Pozio et al., 2013). This viviparous parasite has the particularity to accomplish its whole cycle within a single host. L1 infesting larvae released during digestion rapidly become adult after 4 months. Every fertilized female release between 500 to 1000 larvae. They migrate through blood and lymphatic streams in the entire organism to reach highly oxygenated muscles, where they become encapsulated. Encapsulated larvae can then divert the metabolism of striated muscle cells allowing them to survive for years.
