Host‐mediated filtering and interspecific associations structure strongyle parasite communities in Sable Island horses

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using individual‐level nemabiome metabarcoding of 3147 samples from 916 horses on Sable Island over 10 years, we generate the largest dataset of its kind to date. This unprecedented scale enables a rare test of the processes structuring parasite communities in a natural system, revealing dominant host‐mediated filtering and predominantly positive ...

Intestinal malabsorption and helminthic and protozoan infections of the small intestine

Gastroenterology, 1966
Summary A series of patients with various parasites of the small intestine was studied for evidence of intestinal malabsorption using clinical, pathological and biochemical tests. There was no evidence to support a malabsorption syndrome in cases of giardiasis, strongyloidiasis, and hookworm infection.

IgE‐Binding Bacterial Components Not Yet Documented in the Allergen Databases and Their Allergenic Mechanisms: An EAACI Position Paper

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among bacteria that are associated with the development and/or exacerbation of allergic/atopic diseases, several have been described to produce IgE‐binding components. However, only one bacterial protein, Bac s 1, is currently listed in the official database of the World Health Organization/International Union of Immunological Societies (WHO ...

Understanding the Type 2 Immunity: An Evolving View Beyond Allergic Diseases

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Type 2 (T2) immunity is classically associated with defense against helminths and environmental threats, from a physiological perspective, and with allergies and eosinophilic inflammatory diseases, in a pathological sense. However, growing evidence reveals that T2 pathways also support other essential homeostatic functions, including tissue ...

The Origins of Allergy: An Outside‐In, Bioenergetic Hypothesis

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allergic disease has risen too rapidly for inherited susceptibility to explain it, and the risk variants so far reported lie in the epithelial barrier and in type‐2 immunity. We propose a five‐layer model in which epithelial barrier and bioenergetic dysfunction may precede and promote type‐2 immune deviation rather than arise solely as its ...

AI‐Assisted Morphometric Analysis and Molecular Phylogeny for a Dactylogyrid (Monopisthocotyla) Skin Parasite of an Ornamental Crenuchid Fish From Brazil

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a formal description and taxonomic appraisal of Cacatuocotyle adrianoi sp. n., a Neotropical parasite belonging to the family Dactylogyridae, integrating AI‐assisted morphometric analyses, molecular data, and phylogenetic reconstruction. Phylogenetic analyses recovered Cacatuocotyle adrianoi sp. n.
