Entamoeba histolytica belongs to the protozoan parasite that causes amoebiasis, a disease that is common in underdeveloped nations. The establishment of an amoebic infection requires the interaction of pathogenic elements for invasion and tissue destruction, as well as immune responses to defend the host. We examine E. histolytica pathogenicity and describe current understanding on immune response as well as evasion of the immune system strategies while suffering from amoebiasis.
