Evolution of host specificity in monogeneans parasitizing African cichlid fish
Parasites & Vectors, 2014 Background The patterns and processes linked to the host specificity of parasites represent one of the central themes in the study of host-parasite interactions.

Host-parasite fluctuating selection in the absence of specificity [PDF]
, 2017 Fluctuating selection driven by coevolution between hosts and parasites is important for the generation of host and parasite diversity across space and time. Theory has focused primarily on infection genetics, with highly specific ‘matching allele’

Separation Options for Phosphorylated Osteopontin from Transgenic Microalgae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. [PDF]
, 2018 Correct folding and post-translational modifications are vital for therapeutic proteins to elicit their biological functions. Osteopontin (OPN), a bone regenerative protein present in a range of mammalian cells, is an acidic phosphoprotein with multiple ...

Influence of Host Sialic Acid Receptors Structure on the Host Specificity of Influenza Viruses
Viruses, 2022 Influenza viruses need to use sialic acid receptors to invade host cells, and the α-2,3 and α-2,6 sialic acids glycosidic bonds linking the terminal sialic acids are generally considered to be the most important factors influencing the cross-species ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background B‐acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B‐ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer, and while most children in high‐resource settings are cured, therapy carries risks for long‐term toxicities. Understanding parents’ concerns about these late effects is essential to guide anticipatory support and inform evolving therapeutic approaches ...

Molecular basis of host specificity in human pathogenic bacteria
Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2014 Pathogenic bacteria display various levels of host specificity or tropism. While many bacteria can infect a wide range of hosts, certain bacteria have strict host selectivity for humans as obligate human pathogens. Understanding the genetic and molecular

The host-range tdCE phenotype of Chandipura virus is determined by mutations in the polymerase gene [PDF]
The emerging arbovirus Chandipura virus (CV) has been implicated in epidemics of acute encephalitis in India with high mortality rates. The isolation of temperature-dependent host-range (tdCE) mutants, which are impaired in growth at 39 °C in chick ...

Absence of Behavioral Induction in Oviposition Preference of \u3ci\u3ePapilio Glaucus\u3c/i\u3e (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae) [PDF]
, 2017 This study addressed the possible behaviora induction effects of previous exposure to several specific host plants on subsequent host preference hierarchy and specificity (i.e ..

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...
