Marine Parasite Biogeography Mirrors Host Patterns Across Latitude, Area, and Diversity
New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.Parasites are integral components of biodiversity, yet they remain poorly represented in large‐scale biogeographic theory. In this study, we test whether marine parasites follow three macroecological patterns established for free‐living taxa, namely that parasite species richness: (1) scales positively with area (both host body size and geographic area)

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.Cephalopods play crucial roles in marine ecosystems due to their diverse and indispensable contributions to trophic webs. However, parasitological research on cephalopods remains limited in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ), despite the commercial significance of certain squid species and the zoonotic potential of the parasites within them. This study aimed to

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.This cross‑sectional observational study assessed the prevalence and diversity of intestinal parasitic infections in humans and livestock in a rural highland community of Nepal. Intestinal parasites were detected in 22% of human participants and 73% of livestock, with overlapping parasite genera observed within the same households.

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.Intestinal parasite infections remain highly prevalent (53.3%) among the Bantar community in Sunsari, Nepal, with Ascaris lumbricoides being the most common parasite and nail‐biting habit identified as a significant risk factor. The findings highlight the urgent need for targeted water, sanitation, hygiene, and health education interventions.

Smart Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 3, June 2026.Magnetic fields modulate macrophage‐cancer crosstalk through the STING‐TRPC1 axis. Exposure reprograms macrophages toward the anti‐cancer phenotype. Exposing cancer cells modulates cancer secretome to promote polarization and selective recruitment of M1‐tumoricidal macrophages, enhancing cancer immunogenicity.

Veterinary Record Open, Volume 13, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Background The giant African land snail (Lissachatina fulica), an invasive species with significant medical, agricultural and economic importance, is abundant in urban areas of Kota Samarahan, Sarawak. The proximity between humans and the snail may increase the risk of pathogen transmission.

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.Alaska Department of Fish and Game is implementing an annual monitoring program at the mouth of the Yukon River where our model will estimate the proportion of Chinook salmon at risk from parasite‐induced mortality to inform annual management. Moreover, the model is broadly applicable to other fungal‐like and myxozoan parasites of conservation concern,

Impact of helminths and helminth products on immune responses
, 2013 Helmintheninfektionen induzieren in ihren Wirten Typ 2 (Th2) Immunantworten, welche parasitäre Larvenstadien hemmen und/oder zur Abstoßung von intestinalen Würmern führen. Th2-Antworten können auch gegenüber Umweltallergenen ausgebildet werden und allergische Reaktionen vermitteln.

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Intensification of fish aquaculture worldwide has led to severe problems of diseases caused by parasitic dactylogyrideans. In this study, the anti‐dactylogyridean efficacy of treating Colossoma macropomum with baths of emamectin benzoate (EMB) was investigated for the first time, along with the effects of this treatment on the haematology and ...
