In light of recent growth in available DNA sequence information for a number of parasitic helminths, it is crucial that suitable gene manipulation technologies are developed to facilitate functional genomic studies in these organisms. In this review we discuss recent progress in the development of these technologies in nematode and platyhelminth parasites of medical and veterinary importance. Specifically, the current status of transient transfection, double-stranded RNA interference and antisense RNA as viable techniques for the manipulation of parasitic helminth gene expression is presented. In addition, the potential for the development of stable, or germ-line, transformation methods in these organisms is also discussed. (C) 2003 Australian Society for Parasitology Inc.
