The Design of Giardia and the Genesis of Giardiasis [PDF]
Giardia is a genus of protozoa discovered in 1681. Six morphologically distinct species are recognized. It mainly attaches in the upper GI tract of a wide variety of vertebrates (including zebrafish), often with beaver and muskrat as reservoirs/carriers ...

Eukaryovorous Predation in Evolutionarily Significant Excavate‐Like Flagellates
ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence suggests that the Last Eukaryotic Common Ancestor (LECA) resembled contemporary excavates, a non‐monophyletic group of deep branching flagellates. Here we explore the functional ecology of distantly related deep‐branching “excavate‐like” flagellates (in Alveolata and Provora) that share with many excavates a vane‐bearing ...

Prevalence and clinical correlations of genetic subtypes of Giardia lamblia in an urban setting [PDF]
The clinical significance of different genetic subtypes or assemblages of Giardia lamblia is uncertain. Cases of giardiasis in south-west London between 1999 and 2005 were studied, comparing molecular-typing results with clinical and epidemiological ...

Gene duplication in the genome of parasitic
Background Giardia are a group of widespread intestinal protozoan parasites in a number of vertebrates. Much evidence from G. lamblia indicated they might be the most primitive extant eukaryotes.

Chromaffin Versus Platelet Granules: What We Have Learned From Chromaffin Cells for Human Studies
Chromaffin cells and platelets both utilize exocytosis to release biogenic amines stored within large dense‐core vesicles—specifically chromaffin granules (epinephrine) and δ‐granules (serotonin). While the chromaffin cell is the foundational model for studying the secretory pathway, platelets offer a highly accessible human cell source for clinical ...

Metalloids: Semi as Metals yet Full of Antimicrobial Potential
Metalloids such as boron (B), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), and tellurium (Te) bridge metals and non‐metals, displaying unique chemical versatility. Recent research highlights their diverse antimicrobial and therapeutic potentials, from natural products to synthetic organic and organometallic molcules, underscoring renewed ...
