Comparative Analysis of Gut Eukaryotic Communities in Three Laboratory‐Reared Cockroach Species Using Metabarcoding

open access: yesJournal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cockroaches are known reservoirs for diverse bacterial microbiomes. However, comprehensive analyses of the eukaryotic communities within cockroaches remain limited. In this study, we selected three long‐term laboratory‐reared cockroach species (Blattella germanica, Periplaneta fuliginosa, and Periplaneta japonica) and performed metabarcoding ...

Declining Trends in Gastrointestinal Parasitic Infections Among Nepalese School Children: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis (2004–2022)

open access: yesPublic Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
This meta‐analysis of 25 studies (17,628 children) shows a substantial decline in gastrointestinal parasitic infections in Nepal from 43.4% to 24.2% between 2004 and 2022. Helminths (20.0%) remained more common than protozoa (9.9%), with slightly higher prevalence in urban (29.0%) than rural areas (27.9%). ABSTRACT Background Gastrointestinal parasitic

Modulation of succinyl‐CoA:3‐ketoacid CoA transferase activity by a single amino acid residue in acetate:succinate CoA transferase from Trypanosoma brucei, the causative agent of African sleeping sickness

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Trypanosomatids are protozoan parasites that remain a global health challenge due to the limited efficacy, safety, and durability of current treatments. Acetate: succinate CoA transferase (ASCT), together with succinyl‐CoA synthase (SCS), forms the ASCT/SCS cycle that fuels ATP production and generates acetate, a central metabolic intermediate
