Characterization of Transcriptional, Epigenetic, and Phenotypic Plasticity and Discovery of Biomarkers in Acute and Chronic Murine Schistosomiasis Infection

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 3, 15 February 2026.
Workflow for discovering parasitological and molecular changes related to Schistosoma mansoni infection. ABSTRACT Parasites can induce changes in their hosts, favoring the success of the infection and its development at each stage of their life cycle.

Extracellular Vesicle Properties and Functions Are Defined by the Originating Cell's Fitness Status

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 5, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent studies have focused on the role of dying cells in modulating immune function and shaping the local microenvironment. Apoptotic cells release various extracellular vesicles (EVs), such as exosomes and microvesicles, and form apoptotic bodies through membrane blebbing.

The redial and cercarial production of a Digenean in the snail host is lower when no cercarial shedding occurs

Parasite, 2009
Single- and double-miracidium exposures of Galba truncatula with Fasciola hepatica (two groups) or with Paramphistomum daubneyi (two groups) were carried out under laboratory conditions to compare parasite production in cercaria-shedding snails (CS ...

Integrating morphology and genetics to resolve the first reptilian liolopid life cycle in Africa, Paraharmotrema karinganiense (Digenea: Liolopidae)

Parasitology
The Liolopidae (Diplostomoidea) are a small family of digeneans that parasitize reptiles and amphibians as adults. Knowledge of intermediate hosts in this family remains scarce, leaving a major gap in the understanding of liolopid biology.
