Aestivating and aroused earthworms adjust the immune system, which in turn, regulate cell fate via apoptosis. Long‐term aestivation is attributed to extracellular matrix remodeling, DNA repair, and inhibitory neurotransmitters, which could also positively influence lifespan.

BCG vaccine, a live and attenuated strain of Mycobacterium bovis, and fungal β‐glucans, derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae or Candida albicans, have been traditionally used in experimental studies aiming to induce non‐specific cross‐protection and to assess the mechanism involved in the trained immunity phenomenon.

Mosquito Akirin as a potential antigen for malaria control [PDF]
The control of vector-borne diseases is important to improve human and animal health worldwide. Malaria is one of the world's deadliest diseases and is caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Plasmodium, which are transmitted by Anopheles spp. mosquitoes.

Sulfate‐based alginate polysaccharide (SAP) is a novelty marine prebiotic. To investigate the beneficial effects of SAP in Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) fed low‐fishmeal diets, six diets (whole fishmeal group: FM; fishmeal replacement with cottonseed protein concentrate and SAP supplementary groups: SAP0, SAP1, SAP2, SAP3, and SAP4) were ...

Colocalization between Akirin, the NuRD Complex, and Histone Modifications [PDF]
Akirin is a small highly conserved nuclear protein that has been of scientific interest since its discovery in 2008. Akirin functions as a transcriptional co-factor for many important biological pathways; however, detail regarding Akirin’s mechanism ...

Subolesin/Akirin Vaccines for the Control of Arthropod Vectors and Vectorborne Pathogens [PDF]
Diseases transmitted by arthropod vectors such as mosquitoes, ticks and sand flies greatly impact human and animal health, and therefore, their control is important for the eradication of vectorborne diseases (VBD). Vaccination is an environmentally friendly alternative for vector control that allows control of several VBD by targeting their common ...

Reciprocal regulation of NF-kB (Relish) and Subolesin in the tick vector, Ixodes scapularis. [PDF]
BackgroundTick Subolesin and its ortholog in insects and vertebrates, Akirin, have been suggested to play a role in the immune response through regulation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kB)-dependent and independent gene expression via interaction with ...
