A Consistent PCR-RFLP Assay Based on ITS-2 Ribosomal DNA for Differentiation of Fasciola Species [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, 2013
Objective(s): Fascioliasis is a zoonotic parasitic disease caused by liver fluke species of Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica. Differentiation of these two species, based on their morphological characteristics, is difficult.

Evidences That Host Genetic Background More Than the Environment Shapes the Microbiota of the Snail Bulinus truncatus, an Intermediate Host of Schistosoma Species

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 6, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbiota have emerged as fundamental regulators of host physiology, shaping both ecological interactions and evolutionary trajectories. Yet, the determinants of microbiota diversity and structure in wild populations—particularly the respective roles of host genetics and environmental context—are still poorly understood.

Farm-level risk factors for Fasciola hepatica infection in Danish dairy cattle as evaluated by two diagnostic methods [PDF]

, 2017
The prevalence of bovine fasciolosis in Denmark is increasing but appropriate guidelines for control are currently lacking. In order to help develop a control strategy for liver fluke, a risk factor study of farm management factors was conducted and the ...

Freshwater Snails at the Biodiversity–Climate–Health Nexus: A Call to Recognize Neglected Models for Eco‐Evolutionary and One Health Research

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Freshwater snails occupy a unique position at the intersection of biodiversity, climate, and health. I argue that their ecological plasticity, reproductive diversity, and role as parasite hosts make them powerful yet overlooked model systems for integrating eco‐evolutionary dynamics with One Health challenges.

Dairy heifers naturally exposed to Fasciola hepatica develop a type-2 immune response and concomitant suppression of leukocyte proliferation [PDF]

, 2017
Fasciola hepatica is a parasitic trematode of global importance in livestock. Control strategies reliant on anthelmintics are unsustainable due to the emergence of drug resistance. Vaccines are under development, but efficacy is variable.

Modulation of succinyl‐CoA:3‐ketoacid CoA transferase activity by a single amino acid residue in acetate:succinate CoA transferase from Trypanosoma brucei, the causative agent of African sleeping sickness

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Trypanosomatids are protozoan parasites that remain a global health challenge due to the limited efficacy, safety, and durability of current treatments. Acetate: succinate CoA transferase (ASCT), together with succinyl‐CoA synthase (SCS), forms the ASCT/SCS cycle that fuels ATP production and generates acetate, a central metabolic intermediate

Strongyloides Antigens Alter Cytokines Responses in Toxoplasma gondii‐Infected BeWo Trophoblast Cells

Cell Biology International, Volume 50, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The importance of co‐infections is not yet completely understood, and the impact and direction of their effects vary considerably. This study aimed to evaluate the role of total saline extract (TS) and excretory/secretory (ES) products of Strongyloides venezuelensis filarioid larvae on a maternal‐interface cell model during Toxoplasma gondii ...
