Identification of Cryptosporidium parvum IIa and IId zoonotic subtype families and Cryptosporidium bovis from calves in Algeria

Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 2023
Cryptosporidiosis is a significant disease in calves caused by the parasitic protist Cryptosporidium. The infection results in severe symptoms such as diarrhea, dehydration, delayed growth, and weight loss, often leading to mortality and economic losses.

Transgenic selection and underlying mechanisms in apicomplexan parasites

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Transgenic selection markers have driven genetic engineering in apicomplexans, enabling precise, iterative experiments. This review discusses mechanistic details of drug selection markers, strategies for marker recycling, and practical considerations for several clinically relevant parasites.

Detection of Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts in calf fecal samples by direct immunofluorescence assay Detecção de oocistos de Cryptosporidium parvum em amostras fecais de bezerros pela reação de imunofluorescência direta

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2011
The aim of this study was to produce a conjugate containing anti-Cryptosporidium parvum polyclonal antibodies and standardize a Direct Immunofluorescence Assay (DIF) for detecting C. parvum oocysts in fecal samples from calves. In order to obtain anti-C.

Successful use of insect‐based (Hermetia illucens) diet in dogs with food‐responsive enteropathy

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objective Diet is an integral component of the management of chronic enteropathy in dogs. The role of insect‐based diets in this disease remains unknown. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of an insect‐based (Hermetia illucens) diet in dogs with presumed food‐responsive enteropathy.

The 100 Faces of Cryptosporidium parvum [PDF]

, 2012
Cryptosporidium parvum is a protozoan enteric parasite of humans and livestock. C. parvum infection mainly affects the ileum, where it has the potential to cause severe enteric disease. Drugs for the treatment of cryptosporidiosis are still not available

Assessment of faecal calprotectin in neonatal calf diarrhoea using a human ELISA kit: Associations with faecal score and serum biochemical markers

Veterinary Record Open, Volume 13, Issue 2, December 2026.
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 ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 17, Page 2547-2563, September 2026.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.
