Fresh insights into the pyrimidine metabolism in the trypanosomatids

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
The trypanosomatid parasites continue their killing spree resulting in significant annual mortality due to the lack of effective treatments and the prominence of these diseases in poorer countries.

Resource supplementation later in the colony cycle improves real‐world bumblebee colony survival

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our findings suggest that B. terrestris colonies became food‐limited towards the end of their colony cycle in early summer. We suggest ecological intensification through planting native wildflower species may be more effective if it targets this flowering period, particularly within heavily arable areas, and that a staggered patchwork of mowing or ...

An Insight into the proteome of Crithidia fasciculata choanomastigotes as a comparative approach to axenic growth, peanut lectin agglutination and differentiation of Leishmania spp. promastigotes.

PLoS ONE, 2014
The life cycle of the trypanosomatid Crithidia fasciculata is monogenetic, as the unique hosts of these parasites are different species of culicids.

Leishmania RNA Virus and Its Impact on Drug Response and Clinical Outcomes in Leishmaniasis: A Comprehensive Review

Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Leishmania RNA viruses (LRVs) have emerged as significant modulators of disease severity, therapeutic response, and clinical outcomes in various forms of leishmaniasis. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge surrounding LRV1 and LRV2, focusing on their taxonomy, molecular biology, epidemiological patterns, and pathogenic

Evaluation of the Crithidia Assay to Distinguish Between Autoimmune Chronic Active Hepatitis and Systemic Lupus-Erythematosus

, 1987
The aim of this study was to determine if the Crithidia luciliae assay for auto‐antibodies to double‐stranded DNA, often positive in systemic lupus erythematosus, is always negative in auto‐immune chronic active hepatitis (CAH) as has recently been ...

Applying Genetic Risk Score to Improve Risk Assessment of New‐Onset Lupus Nephritis in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Large‐Scale Prospective Cohort Study

MedComm, Volume 6, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Lupus nephritis (LN) is one of the most severe manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). However, reliable tools for predicting LN risk remain limited. In this multicenter prospective cohort study, we developed, validated, and refined a risk stratification model for new‐onset LN.

Trypanosomatid parasites in Austrian mosquitoes.

PLoS ONE, 2018
Trypanosomatid flagellates have not been studied in Austria in any detail. In this study, specific nested PCR, targeted on the ribosomal small subunit, was used to determine the occurrence and diversity of trypanosomatids in wild-caught mosquitoes ...

Leptomonas seymouri and Crithidia fasciculata exoantigens can discriminate human cases of visceral leishmaniasis from American tegumentary leishmaniasis ones

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo
Exoantigens (exo) from Leptomonas seymouri and Crithidia fasciculata were used in an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), showing 100% reactivity with sera from visceral leishmaniasis (VL) cases, and no reactivity with American tegumentary ...
