Molecular identification of Cryptosporidium spp. in alpacas (Vicugna pacos) in China
Cryptosporidium is a ubiquitous protozoan in human and animals. To investigate the genetic diversity of Cryptosporidium spp. in alpaca (Vicugna pacos) in China, 484 fecal samples from alpacas were collected at nine sites, and Cryptosporidium spp.

Nutrient Sensing and Growth Control in Plasmodium: Beyond mTOR Signaling
Plasmodium parasites lack the canonical mTOR kinase and associated signaling complexes, yet retain key mTOR‐like functions. Parasite‐specific nutrient sensors, kinases, and translational regulators coordinate growth, stress adaptation, metabolic plasticity, and developmental decisions through a distributed regulatory network.

Sequence differences in the diagnostic target region of the oocyst wall protein gene of Cryptosporidium parasites [PDF]
Nucleotide sequences of the Cryptosporidium oocyst wall protein (COWP) gene were obtained from Various Cryptosporidium spp. (C. wrairi, C. felis, C. meleagridis, C. baileyi, C. andersoni, C. muris, and C. serpentis) and C. parvum genotypes (human, bovine,

ABSTRACT Introduction Cryptosporidium is responsible not only for large economic losses in the livestock sector, but also for high mortality in infants and immunocompromised people all over the world. Although multiple treatments have been tested in both animals and humans, no drug has yet been found to be 100% effective.

Phylogenetic relationships of Cryptosporidium parasites based on the 70- kilodalton heat shock protein (HSP70) gene [PDF]
We have characterized the nucleotide sequences of the 70-kDa heat shock protein (HSP70) genes of Cryptosporidium baileyi, C. felis, C. meleagridis, C. muris, C. serpentis, C. wrairi, and C. parvum from various animals.

Abstract Background Diarrhoea in newborn calves, which occurs in the first month of life and is caused by various pathogens, poses a significant threat to livestock industries. Therefore, timely diagnosis of enteritis in calves can be advantageous. Objective This study aimed to determine the efficacy of faecal calprotectin as a biomarker indicating ...

Molecular characterization of Cryptosporidium isolates obtained from human immunodeficiency virus-infected individuals living in Switzerland, Kenya, and the United States. [PDF]
A total of 22 Cryptosporidium isolates from human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients from Kenya, Switzerland, and the United States were examined at three genetic loci: the 18S ribosomal DNA, HSP-70, and acetyl coenzyme A synthetase genes.
