Prevalence of Gastrointestinal Parasitic Infections in Captive Snakes, Bangladesh

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study documented gastrointestinal parasitic infections in captive venomous and non‐venomous snakes in Bangladesh for the first time, finding an overall prevalence of 39.1%, with helminths more common than protozoa. Non‐venomous snakes and juveniles were most susceptible, while controlled terrarium housing reduced risk, highlighting the need for ...

Molecular Engineering of the Helminth TGF‐β Mimetics, TGM1 and TGM4, Reveals a Novel Antagonist of TGF‐β Signaling in Fibroblasts

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.
The helminth TGF‐β mimic TGM4 activates SMAD signaling in macrophages and T cells through canonical TGF‐β receptors and the CD44 co‐receptor, through Domains 1–5 (D1‐5). In fibroblasts, which express lower levels of CD44, TGM4 binds but does not transduce a signal; furthermore, it inhibits activation by agonist ligands such as TGF‐β itself, in a manner

Bioactivity Profiling of Coronarin A and Villosin Isolated From Hedychium coronarium J. Koenig: Acaricidal, Nematicidal, and Antifungal Potential

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 4, April 2026.
The graphical abstract illustrates the flowchart for the isolation and evaluation of bioactive compounds from Hedychium coronarium. Crude extracts were obtained via cold percolation from the aerial parts (flowers, leaves, and stems) using dichloromethane (DCM) and from the rhizomes using chloroform.

Early Tick Species Identification Using Eschar‐Based PCR to Guide Presymptomatic Risk Assessment in Tick‐Borne Diseases

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT In endemic regions where simultaneous larval tick bites frequently occur, early identification of tick species from eschar lesions may substantially influence presymptomatic clinical triage. We report a 78‐year‐old woman who was found after approximately 24 h of wandering, presenting with multiple clustered eschars on the lower extremities and
