Camels as a Climate‐Resilient Linchpin for Sustainable Development in Global Drylands

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Camels represent a significant, yet underutilized, asset for advancing integrated sustainable development in the world's expanding drylands. Previous reviews have examined camels' physiology, milk composition, or pastoral systems in isolation; this review examines their potential as a climate‐resilient linchpin for food systems by synthesizing

Quantitative Imaging of Human Hemoglobin Binding to Staphylococcus aureus With Single‐Molecule Resolution

Small, EarlyView.
Single‐molecule localization microscopy is exploited to quantify the number of hemoglobin copies bound to specific receptors on S. aureus wall. This quantification supports the design of a photoactive derivative of hemoglobin able to photo‐inactivate S.

The Digestive System of New World Camelids - Common Digestive Diseases of Llamas [PDF]

, 2015
Llamas (Lama glama) belong to a group of animals called South American or New World Camelids, which also includes the Guanaco (Lama guanicoe) , the Vicuna (Lama vicugna) and the Alpaca (Lama pacos). They are originally from South America, residing in the

The steppe species of gastrointestinal nematodes of small ruminants, with a focus on Marshallagia: climate as a key determinant

Parasite, 2011
We intended to relate the geographic distribution of ruminant gastrointestinal nematodes in relation to steppe climate (and vegetation). Data are either from literature or from newly acquired/ available results.

High‐Throughput FRET Affinity Screening Technique (HTFAST) for Cell‐Free Expressed Binding Protein Characterization

Small, EarlyView.
High‐Throughput FRET Affinity Screening Technique (HTFAST) for quantitative, purification‐free affinity screening of cell‐free expressed binders. A fluorescent‐protein‐fused binder (donor) is expressed directly in crude E. coli cell‐free lysate and titrated against a dye‐labeled antigen (acceptor).

Impact of Two High‐Fiber Dietary Transitions on Fecal Consistency and Microbiota Composition in Captive Dromedary Camels (Camelus dromedarius) With Chronic Recurrent Diarrhea: A Pilot Study

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
High‐fiber dietary interventions reshaped the gut microbiota of captive dromedaries with chronic recurrent diarrhea, but responses varied among individuals. Despite taxonomic shifts, microbial metabolic functions remained remarkably stable, supporting the resilience of the dromedary gut ecosystem and the use of fiber‐based dietary management.

Novel Bispecific Engagers Targeting the CεmX Domain of mIgE‐Expressing Cells

Allergy, EarlyView.
We developed bispecific TCE & NKCE targeting the CεmX domain of mIgE to eliminate IgE‐producing cells. Both constructs demonstrated potent, specific, dose‐dependent cytotoxicity and selective immune activation in vitro. These results highlight their promise as off‐the‐shelf, potentially curative therapeutics for IgE‐associated allergic diseases ...
