Culicoides species involved in the BTV‐3 epidemic, the Netherlands, 2023–2024

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 111-122, March 2026.
A high amount of Culicoides‐midges were captured using Onderstepoort light traps on farms with animals infected with bluetongue serotype 3 (BTV‐3) at the beginning of the outbreak in 2023. Species, sex and parity of the captured Culicoides‐midges were morphologically determined and gravid and parous Culicoides‐midges have been selected and pooled for ...

Advances in Therapeutic Antibody Discovery and Development Targeting G Protein‐Coupled Receptors

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are integral to numerous biological processes and are associated with various diseases across all therapeutic areas. Consequently, GPCRs present substantial potential for antibody‐based therapies. This review offers an overview of the therapeutic GPCR‐antibody target landscape and examines the diversity ...

Severe hyperglycaemia associated with prolonged isoflurane anaesthesia in an alpaca (Vicugna pacos)

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Alpacas possess distinct glucose and insulin regulatory mechanisms compared with other species, often maintaining higher baseline blood glucose as a normal physiological adaptation. Inhalant anaesthetic agents can further disrupt glucose, insulin and potassium homeostasis, particularly during prolonged procedures.

Crystal structure of Schistosoma mansoni cathepsin D1 in complex with a nanobody reveals the conformation of the propeptide‐bound state

Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 2, Page 140-150, February 2026.
Structural characterization of S. mansoni cathepsin D1 in complex with a nanobody reveals the conformation of the propeptide‐bound state and identifies a schistosome‐specific epitope.Schistosoma mansoni cathepsin D1 (SmCD1) has been shown to be an essential enzyme for helminth metabolism due to its role in haemoglobin degradation: a key amino‐acid ...
