The Design of Giardia and the Genesis of Giardiasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
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

open access: yesJournal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
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 ...

Chromaffin Versus Platelet Granules: What We Have Learned From Chromaffin Cells for Human Studies

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, Volume 170, Issue 5, May 2026.
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 ...
