Ultrastructure of Myzocytosis and Cyst Formation, and the Role of Actin in Tubular Tether Formation in Colpodella sp. (ATCC 50594)

Pathogens, 2022
Free-living relatives of the Apicomplexa such as Colpodella species, Alphamonas species, and Voromonas pontica are predators that prey on ciliate, bodonid, and algal prey using the process of myzocytosis.

Spatial distribution and evaluation of risk factors for bovine neosporosis in Rondônia, Brazil [PDF]

Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2023
Neospora caninum is an important worldwide parasite responsible for causing abortion in animals. Due to limited information on the occurrence of infection by this parasite in the state of Rondônia, Brazil, this study aimed to determine the seroprevalence

Toxoplasma and Plasmodium protein kinases: roles in invasion and host cell remodelling [PDF]

, 2011
Some apicomplexan parasites have evolved distinct protein kinase families to modulate host cell structure and function. Toxoplasma gondii rhoptry protein kinases and pseudokinases are involved in virulence and modulation of host cell signalling.

First record of Aedes aegypti (L.) (Diptera: Culicidae) infected by the parasite Ascogregarina culicis (Ross) (Apicomplexa: Lecudinidae) in Argentina [PDF]

, 2005
n a survey for parasites and pathogens of Aedes aegypti conducted in La Plata, Argentina, an aseptate gregarine was found parasitizing larvae, pupae and adults of this mosquito species. This gregarine species was identified as Ascogregarina culicis based

Protein import into the endosymbiotic organelles of apicomplexan parasites [PDF]

, 2018
The organelles of endosymbiotic origin, plastids, and mitochondria, evolved through the serial acquisition of endosymbionts by a host cell. These events were accompanied by gene transfer from the symbionts to the host, resulting in most of the organellar

Toxoplasma gondii, endothelial cells and schizophrenia: is it just a barrier matter?

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Toxoplasma gondii is an obligatory intracellular parasite responsible for causing toxoplasmosis. It is estimated that approximately one-third of the world’s population has positive serology for toxoplasmosis. Acute T.

NAD(P) transhydrogenase isoform distribution provides insight into apicomplexan evolution

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Membrane-located NAD(P) transhydrogenase (NTH) catalyses reversible hydride ion transfer between NAD(H) and NADP(H), simultaneously translocating a proton across the membrane. The enzyme is structurally conserved across prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
