Cyst-Wall-Protein-1 is fundamental for Golgi-like organelle neogenesis and cyst-wall biosynthesis in Giardia lamblia [PDF]
Giardia lamblia is a human protozoan parasite with two diploid nuclei, which makes complete knock-out of a gene of interest challenging. Here the authors use a Cre/loxP-based approach to knock-out cyst-wall protein 1 (cwp1) and show that CWP1 is ...

Novel Insights into the Wattle and Daub Model of Entamoeba Cyst Wall Formation and the Importance of Actin Cytoskeleton [PDF]
The “Wattle and Daub” model of cyst wall formation in Entamoeba invadens has been used to explain encystment in Entamoeba histolytica, the causal agent of amoebiasis, and this process could be a potential target for new antiamoebic drugs.

The Toxoplasma gondii cyst wall protein CST1 is critical for cyst wall integrity and promotes bradyzoite persistence. [PDF]
Toxoplasma gondii infects up to one third of the world's population. A key to the success of T. gondii as a parasite is its ability to persist for the life of its host as bradyzoites within tissue cysts.

Next-generation sequencing of pancreatic cyst wall specimens obtained using micro-forceps for improving diagnostic accuracy. [PDF]
Background and study aims: Pancreatic cysts are common incidental findings, with an estimated prevalence of 13-15% in imaging done for other reasons. Diagnosis often relies on collection of cyst fluid, but tissue sampling using micro-forceps may allow ...

Trafficking and organization of cyst wall components into a robust biphasic structure in Entamoeba. [PDF]
Entamoeba histolytica, a protozoan parasite, causes amebiasis. Amebiasis is mainly transmitted by oral ingestion of cysts. Cysts are produced in the large intestine of humans from proliferative trophozoites by a cell differentiation process called ...
