The Effect of Climate Change on Emergence and Evolution of Zoonotic Diseases in Asia

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 7, Page 587-611, November 2025.
ABSTRACT As the climate of Asia changes under the influence of global warming, the incidence and spatial distribution of known zoonoses will evolve, and new zoonoses are expected to emerge as a result of greater exposure to organisms which currently occur only in wildlife.

Triosephosphate isomerase from Fasciola hepatica: high‐resolution crystal structure as a drug target

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section F, Volume 81, Issue 9, Page 381-387, September 2025.
The high‐resolution crystal structure of triosephosphate isomerase from F. hepatica was solved at 1.51 Å resolution in its monoclinic form, revealing details of the dimer interface critical for enzyme function. Molecular docking with the fasciolocide triclabendazole suggests selective binding near nonconserved residues, highlighting this enzyme as a ...
