Analysis of the role of the p47 GTPase IIGP1 in Resistance against Intracellular Pathogens [PDF]

, 2005
IIGP1 is a member of the p47 GTPase family of IFNγ-induced proteins, which are among the most potent presently known mediators of cell-autonomous resistance against intracellular bacterial and protozoan pathogens in the mouse. From all studied members of

Prevalence and Toxoplasma gondii Genotypes Circulating in Five Wild Corvid Species from Romania

Pathogens
The apicomplexan parasite Toxoplasma gondii can potentially infect all warm-blooded animals, including birds, which, due to their high dispersal capabilities, are considered a significant candidate group of sentinel animals that reveal environmental ...

Antibodies Targeting a Conserved Surface Polysaccharide Are Protective Against a Wide Range of Microbial Pathogens Producing β-1–6-Linked Poly-N-Acetylglucosamine (PNAG)

Engineering
The β-1–6-linked poly-N-acetylglucosamine (PNAG) polymer is a conserved surface polysaccharide produced by many bacteria, fungi, and protozoan (and even filarial) parasites.

Social context influences Toxoplasma gondii and Trichinella spp. infection in Alberta free-roaming wild pigs (Sus scrofa).

PLoS ONE
The increasing spread of wild pigs across Canada is concerning due to their potential role as reservoirs for zoonotic diseases, including trichinosis and toxoplasmosis. Trichinosis is caused by the parasitic nematode Trichinella spp.
