These fungi have shown efficacy against the following helminth genera: Ancylostoma, Toxocara, Enterobius, Strongyloides, Angiostrongylus, Taenia, Fasciola, and Schistosoma. The results obtained from these experiments, together with studies on soil contamination, suggest the viability of their use as a sustainable and effective strategy to reduce environmental contamination by these zoonotic parasites. Therefore, the aim of this review was to address the role of helminthophagous fungi in the biological control of potentially zoonotic helminths. To this end, we describe (1) a brief history of helminthophagous fungi; (2) a discussion of some potentially zoonotic intestinal parasites; (3) the importance of helminthophagous fungi in the control of nematodes, cestodes, and trematodes; and (4) the potential of helminthophagous fungi as a practical and sustainable strategy.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/pathogens13090741","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,30]],"date-time":"2024-08-30T07:45:47Z","timestamp":1725003947000},"page":"741","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["The Role of Helminthophagous Fungi in the Biological Control of Human and Zoonotic Intestinal Helminths"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7367-4071","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jackson Victor de","family":"Ara\u00fajo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Medicine, Federal University of Vi\u00e7osa\u2014UFV, Vi\u00e7osa 36570-900, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J\u00falia dos Santos","family":"Fonseca","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Epidemiology and Public Health, Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro\u2014UFRRJ, Serop\u00e9dica 23890-000, RJ, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7336-1179","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Beatriz Bacelar","family":"Barbosa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Epidemiology and Public Health, Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro\u2014UFRRJ, Serop\u00e9dica 23890-000, RJ, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Helbert Ananias","family":"Valverde","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Medicine, Federal University of Vi\u00e7osa\u2014UFV, Vi\u00e7osa 36570-900, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8218-3626","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Huarrisson Azevedo","family":"Santos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Epidemiology and Public Health, Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro\u2014UFRRJ, Serop\u00e9dica 23890-000, RJ, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2942-5785","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fabio Ribeiro","family":"Braga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Experimental Parasitology and Biological Control, Vila Velha University\u2014UVV, Vila Velha 29102-920, ES, Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1319","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijpara.2005.06.004","article-title":"Human behaviour and the epidemiology of parasitic zoonoses","volume":"35","author":"Macpherson","year":"2005","journal-title":"Int.
