Recent Duplication and Functional Divergence in Parasitic Nematode Levamisole-Sensitive Acetylcholine Receptors. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2016
Helminth parasites rely on fast-synaptic transmission in their neuromusculature to experience the outside world and respond to it. Acetylcholine plays a pivotal role in this and its receptors are targeted by a wide variety of both natural and synthetic ...

Molecular phylogenetics and systematics of two enteric helminth parasites (Baylisascaris laevis and Diandrya vancouverensis) in the Vancouver Island marmot (Marmota vancouverensis)

open access: yesInternational Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2022
Island biogeography can promote rapid diversification and speciation via geographic isolation and novel selection pressures. These same factors can threaten the persistence of island endemics by limiting gene flow and suitable habitat.

Differential expression of AP-1 transcription factor genes c-fos and c-jun in the helminth parasites Taenia crassiceps and Taenia solium

open access: yesParasitology, 2004
Homologues of c-fos and c-jun from total DNA of Taenia crassiceps and Taenia solium were cloned and sequenced. The amino acid alignment analysis revealed that c-fos DNAs from T. crassiceps and T. solium were highly homologous (96%), and both have high homology compared to several mammalian c-fos proteins (93% to mouse, 96% to rat and 86% to human). The
