Microbiome‐Dependent Modulation of Trichomonas vaginalis Cytotoxicity and Remodeling of the Parasite Secretome

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Our study shows that vaginal bacteria can either suppress or amplify the pathogenic behavior of the protozoan parasite Trichomonas vaginalis. A protective Lactobacillus‐dominated microbiome in eubiosis reduces parasite‐induced damage, whereas dysbiotic bacteria enhance cytotoxicity, followed by changes in the profile of the parasite's secreted proteins.

Impact of bauxite mining on mosquito communities (Diptera: Culicidae) and pathogen transmission risks in the eastern Amazon

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Bauxite mining in the Amazon alters mosquito communities, favouring anthropophilic and generalist vectors while reducing species diversity and the variety of blood meal sources. Molecular analyses identified humans, tapirs and deer as the primary blood meal sources.

Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy in Candida spp. biofilms: In vitro and in vivo protocols

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
This review addresses the critical challenges in translating in vitro antimicrobial photodynamic therapy protocols to in vivo models, with a particular focus on the hurdles of standardization. The vast diversity in photosensitizers and light parameters across different target cells and models requires a rigorous optimization process.
