Precursor‐targeted immune‐mediated anaemia in a dog with concurrent haemoparasite seroreactivity: Diagnostic challenges and therapeutic response

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, November 2026.
Summary Precursor‐targeted immune‐mediated anaemia (PIMA) is an increasingly recognised cause of nonregenerative anaemia in dogs and may be difficult to distinguish from infectious or other immune‐mediated conditions. This report describes a dog presenting severe nonregenerative anaemia, leukopenia and thrombocytopenia, initially testing seroreactive ...

Structural Insights Into the Function of Leishmania major Adenylosuccinate Lyase

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 10, Page 1686-1701, October 2026.
ABSTRACT One of several intriguing aspects of kinetoplastid biochemistry is the complete dependence on host purines and purine recycling due to the lack of a de novo purine biosynthesis pathway. Adenylosuccinate lyase (ASL, EC 4.3.2.2) is a key enzyme in the purine synthesis pathway responsible for the conversion of adenylosuccinate into adenosine ...

Integrated mapping of establishment risk for emerging vector-borne infections: a case study of canine leishmaniasis in southwest France. [PDF]

, 2011
BACKGROUND: Zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis is endemic in the Mediterranean Basin, where the dog is the main reservoir host. The disease's causative agent, Leishmania infantum, is transmitted by blood-feeding female sandflies.

Synthesis and Evaluation of Peptoid‐Based Compound Libraries as Inhibitors of Parasite Metallo‐Aminopeptidases

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 17, 14 September 2026.
Evaluation of two libraries of peptoid‐based compounds for inhibitory activity against PfA‐M1 from Plasmodium falciparum, TcLAP from Trypanosoma cruzi, and LmLAP from Leishmania major reveals the crucial role of hydrophobic interactions in the inhibition process of these parasite metallo‐aminopeptidases.

‘Reservoir dogs’: The emerging zoonotic risk associated with European dog imports to the UK

Veterinary Record, Volume 199, Issue 5, Page e238-e249, 5/12 September 2026.
Abstract Background The movement of dogs from continental Europe to the UK poses a growing public health threat due to the associated risk of disease incursions. Current legislation is insufficient to address the risks and pre‐import control measures are focused only on rabies virus and the fox tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. Methods We conducted
