ABSTRACT The gill parasite Sparicotyle chrysophrii poses a significant threat to gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) aquaculture in the Mediterranean, causing considerable mortality and economic losses. As traditional chemotherapeutic treatments, like formalin, face growing regulatory restrictions, there is an urgent need for alternative control ...

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

Helminths as architects of trained tolerance: implications for human health
Abstract Helminths infect nearly 2 billion people worldwide and are a major cause of chronic morbidity in low‐resource regions. Unlike bacterial and viral pathogens that elicit protective memory, helminths actively remodel host immunity to enable their years‐long persistence and reinfection.

Wrapping the alpha-crystallin domain fold in a chaperone assembly [PDF]
Small heat shock proteins (sHsps) are oligomers that perform a protective function by binding denatured proteins. Although ubiquitous, they are of variable sequence except for a C-terminal similar to 90-residue "alpha-crystallin domain".

Immune Exhaustion in Chronic Infection and Cancer: Signaling Pathways and Therapeutic Interventions
Immune exhaustion is a well‐established hallmark of both cancer and chronic infection. This review proposes a novel “infection–exhaustion–tumor axis” framework, wherein chronic pathogens (e.g., oncogenic viruses) evade immune surveillance by hijacking inflammatory signaling to drive immune cell exhaustion, thereby creating immunosuppressive niches ...

Mediastinal hydatid disease with spinal involvement—A rare cause of spinal cord compression
Spinal hydatid disease accounts for less than 1% of human hydatid disease. It can very rarely lead to paraplegia. We report a rare case of spinal hydatid disease and review the pertinent literature.
