A draft genome of the honey bee trypanosomatid parasite Crithidia mellificae. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Since 2006, honey bee colonies in North America and Europe have experienced increased annual mortality. These losses correlate with increased pathogen incidence and abundance, though no single etiologic agent has been identified.

Nucleases and Their Inhibitors: Exploring Biological Roles, Industrial Applications, and Challenges in Heterologous Expression

Biotechnology Journal, Volume 21, Issue 9, September 2026.
Graphical Abstract and Lay Summary Intracellular nucleases, depicted as blue circles in a nucleosome, hydrolyze phosphodiester bonds, repair damaged DNA using DNA base excision repair (BER), mismatch repair (MMR), and homologous recombination (HR), and are involved in DNA replication.

Automated Evaluation of Crithidia luciliae Based Indirect Immunofluorescence Tests: A Novel Application of the EUROPattern-Suite Technology

Journal of Immunology Research, 2015
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a severe rheumatic autoimmune disease with various clinical manifestations. Anti-dsDNA antibodies are an important immunological hallmark of SLE and their occurrence represents a major criterion for the diagnosis ...

Co-infection of Leishmania infantum and a Crithidia-related species in a case of refractory relapsed visceral leishmaniasis with non-ulcerated cutaneous manifestation in Brazil

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2023
We report a refractory and relapsed visceral leishmaniasis case in a male child patient followed from 2016 to 2020, whose clinical isolates from multiple relapses were analyzed at the genome level.

Microbiome‐mediated chemical communication in insects: Implications for pest management

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8132-8151, September 2026.
Microbiome–semiochemical interactions involve the following processes: direct microbial synthesis, host gene regulation, precursor biotransformation, microbiome modulation and indirect ecological signaling. Abstract Insects rely on semiochemicals to regulate aggregation, mating, foraging, and host selection. This review synthesizes evidence that insect‐

Case series: Kikuchi‐Fujimoto disease with diagnostic overlap

Rheumatology &Autoimmunity, Volume 6, Issue 3, Page 198-201, September 2026.
Kikuchi‐Fujimoto disease (KFD) is a rare, self‐limiting necrotizing lymphadenitis that poses significant diagnostic challenges due to its overlap with tuberculosis, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and malignancy. We present four cases highlighting distinct diagnostic complexities: KFD mimicking tuberculosis with concomitant latent TB infection and ...

Temperature Alters Specificity in a Host–Parasite Interaction

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
The Red Queen Hypothesis predicts that host–parasite coevolution maintains genetic variation through strong genetic specificity, but this specificity may be sensitive to environmental conditions. Using Meloidogyne arenaria and its parasite Pasteuria penetrans, we tested host–parasite interactions across three temperatures and found specificity at two ...

Apoptosis in Crithidia fasciculata [PDF]

, 2021
Crithidia fasciculata belongs to a group of parasites called kinetoplastids that comprise many important human pathogens. Evidence of apoptosis has been found in these parasites with pathways that appear to be different than in mammalian cells. Therefore,
