Zoonotic Transmission Assessment of Cryptosporidium spp. in Close Human–Pet Environments in Yunnan Province, China

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study revealed Cryptosporidium infection rates of 11.1% in dogs and 10.4% in cats in human–pet environments in Yunnan, China. Molecular evidence documents one case of pet‐to‐human transmission involving an immunocompromised elderly owner, suggesting vulnerable individuals face higher infection risks despite minimal transmission to immunocompetent ...

A new species of Cryptosporidium (Apicomplexa: Cryptosporidiidae) from eastern grey kangaroos (Macropus giganteus)

open access: yes, 2008
Cryptosporidium macropodum n. sp is described. Oocysts of C. macropodum from the feces of kangaroos (Macropus spp.) are morphologically indistinguishable from other mammalian Cryptosporidium species, including C. parvum, C. hominis, C. suis, and C. canis.

Nutrient Acquisition and Attachment Strategies in Basal Lineages: A Tough Nut to Crack in the Evolutionary Puzzle of Apicomplexa

open access: yes, 2021
Apicomplexa are unicellular eukaryotes that parasitise a wide spectrum of invertebrates and vertebrates, including humans. In their hosts, they occupy a variety of niches, from extracellular cavities (intestine, coelom) to epicellular and intracellular ...

Seroprevalence of Neospora caninum in Camelids of the New and Old World: A Global Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
Based on the present systematic review and meta‑analysis, the pooled prevalence of N. caninum in camelids was 10% (95% CI: 7%–12%) with significant heterogeneity (I2 = 93.75%, p < 0.0001). The highest rate was detected in Old World camelids, 14% (95% CI: 10%–19%), indicating that this group is more susceptible to N. caninum exposure.

Eimeria spp. in Cattle: A Global Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
This global synthesis, based on 203 studies across 55 countries, revealed a substantial worldwide burden of Eimeria spp. infection in cattle (33.6%), with calves and females showing disproportionately higher infection frequencies and E. bovis and E. zuernii identified as the predominant pathogenic species.

Flexible Synthesis and Evaluation of Diverse Anti-Apicomplexa Cyclic Peptides

open access: yes, 2016
A modular approach to synthesize anti-Apicomplexa parasite inhibitors was developed that takes advantage of a pluripotent cyclic tetrapeptide scaffold capable of adjusting appendage and skeletal diversities in only a few steps (one to three steps).

A redescription of Cryptosporidium galli Pavlasek, 1999 (Apicomplexa: Cryptosporidiidae) from birds

open access: yes, 2003
Clyptosporidium galli Pavlasek, 1999, described from the feces of birds, is redescribed with additional molecular and biological data. Oocysts are ellipsoidal, are passed fully sporulated, lack sporocysts, and measure 8.25 × 6.3 μm (range 8.0-8.5 × 6.2-6.
