Abstract

The term \\\"proteomics\\\" initially referred to the large-scale analysis of gene products, specifically proteins. Proteins, as the main components of physiological metabolic pathways in cells, are vital parts of living organisms. They have diverse functions, including catalyzing biochemical reactions, providing structural support, regulating cellular processes, and participating in signaling networks. The field of proteomics, aims to characterize the entire protein complement of a cell line, tissue, or organism on a large scale. This comprehensive approach provides a deeper understanding of cellular biology and has far-reaching implications in medicine and environmental science. At parasitology, proteomics has emerged as a powerful tool for investigating the intricate biology of helminths. Helminths are parasitic organisms that infect a wide range of hosts, including humans. Helminths secrete a wide range of molecules, of which three major classes of proteins have been identified so far: enzymes, cytoskeletal proteins, and proteins that bind to other proteins. These proteins, play a crucial role in the penetration, migration, and establishment of worms in the host, including host invasion, immune evasion, nutrition, and modulation of host immune responses. Parasitic helminth proteins have become a focal point of research efforts aimed at developing control tools, including vaccines and drug targets. Furthermore, the unique protein repertoire of helminths has recently emerged as a potential source of drugs for treating inflammatory and metabolic disorders that are prevalent in populations free of helminth infections. In conclusion, the future of helminth proteomics holds immense potential, to characterization of proteins is vital to understanding host-parasite interactions, discovering drug targets, vaccines against, and creating immunodiagnostic kits in animals and humans. And also, Identification of new immunomodulatory for treating inflammatory diseases, as well as the identification of new therapeutics for these diseases.
