    Hepatic echinococcosis is caused by Echinococcus granulosus and Echinococcus multilocularis, affecting the liver primarily.

  • 2

    Bulk omics have identified global immune and vascular pathway perturbations in hepatic echinococcosis but lack resolution in cell-specific interactions.

  • 3

    Recent advances in single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics enable detailed profiling of cellular interactions in hepatic echinococcosis.

  • 4

    Studies have shown late-stage expansion of specific macrophages and exhausted T-cell programs in hepatic echinococcosis lesions.

  • 5

    An integrative framework linking cell-state diversity to spatial context is proposed to enhance understanding of hepatic echinococcosis.
