Sex in Immune Cells and Parasitic Diseases — A Complex Relationship

Immunological Reviews, Volume 337, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological studies consistently show that many parasitic diseases affect males more frequently than females. These disparities are multifactorial, arising partly from gender‐specific behaviors that influence exposure risk and health‐seeking practices, especially in low‐ and middle‐income countries. Increasing evidence also highlights that

Identification of internalin-A-like virulent proteins in Leishmania donovani [PDF]

, 2016
Background An active immune surveillance and a range of barriers to infection allow the host to effectively eliminate microbial pathogens. However, pathogens may use diverse strategies to subdue such host defences. For instance, one such mechanism is the

Molecular Identification of the Nematode Eustrongylides ignotus in Mandarin Fish, Siniperca chuatsi

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi) is a high‐value economic freshwater fish in China; however, the frequent occurrence of diseases threatens its production. To this end, we explored the impact of a nematode parasite newly found in the abdomen of mandarin fish collected from Pudong, Shanghai, China.

Trypanosomatids are common and diverse parasites of Drosophila [PDF]

, 2011
SUMMARYDrosophila melanogasteris an important model system of immunity and parasite resistance, yet most studies use parasites that do not naturally infect this organism. We have studied trypanosomatids in natural populations to assess the prevalence and
