Inflammatory responses and intestinal injury development during acute Trypanosoma cruzi infection are associated with the parasite load

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Chagas disease is caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi and is characterized by cardiac, gastrointestinal, and nervous system disorders. Although much about the pathophysiological process of Chagas disease is already known, the influence ...

Kinetics of the local cellular response in the gastric lymph of immune and susceptible sheep to infection with Teladorsagia circumcincta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Groups of yearling sheep were trickle infected with Teladorsagia circumcincta for 8 weeks, then the infection cleared with anthelmintic and both these animals and a group of parasite naïve sheep were challenged with 50 000 infective T.

p190A/ARHGAP35 and p190B/ARHGAP5 proteins in endometrial cancer: a novel cancer‐relevant paralog interplay

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies ARHGAP5, in addition to the frequently mutated ARHGAP35, as significantly mutated in endometrial cancer. Mutations in both genes co‐occur and are associated with their correlated downregulation. Functional CRISPR studies show that both paralogs regulate similar pathways, including actin cytoskeleton organization.

INTESTINAL PARASITES IN THE SOUTH [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association, 1912
With the advent of the Rockefeller Sanitary Commission there has been an awakening in the search for parasitic causes of disease, particularly in regard to those parasites which find lodgment in the intestines. Some of the results of this work are more or less surprising as they indicate various parasitic infestations which are confined to somewhat ...

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...
