Gene Expression Associated With Behaviour Manipulation in Wood Ants Infected With Larval Lancet Fluke, Dicrocoelium dendriticum

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 20, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Many ant species show dramatic shifts in behaviour when infected with parasites, but the molecular basis of these behavioural changes is not well understood. An example is the wood ant, Formica aserva, which serves as an intermediate host for the lancet liver fluke, Dicrocoelium dendriticum.

Pharmacological Inhibition of c‐Jun N‐Terminal Kinase Activity Exacerbates Liver Damage in Schistosoma mansoni Infected Mice

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease affecting more than 250 million people worldwide. Eggs of the parasitic helminth S. mansoni cause major morbidity in the liver, spleen and intestine. Of note, egg‐released soluble antigens (SEA) induce the transcription factor c‐Jun in hepatocytes, promoting hepatocellular ...
