Ensaio monográfico da familia Cyathodiniidae

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1940
1) Os Cyathodiniidae são ciliados caracterisados morfologicamente pela existência de uma escavação de abertura antero-ventral, o pseudo-peristoma. A ciliatura é constituída por cilios uniformes dispostos em linhas transversas ou obliquas que revestem a ...

“Candidatus Trichorickettsia mobilis”, a Rickettsiales bacterium, can be transiently transferred from the unicellular eukaryote Paramecium to the planarian Dugesia japonica [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Most of the microorganisms responsible for vector-borne diseases (VBD) have hematophagous arthropods as vector/reservoir. Recently, many new species of microorganisms phylogenetically related to agents of VBD were found in a variety of aquatic eukaryotic

A Family of Developmentally Excised DNA Elements in \u3cem\u3eTetrahymena\u3c/em\u3e is under Selective Pressure to Maintain an Open Reading Frame Encoding an Integrase-Like Protein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Tlr1 is a member of a family of ~20-30 DNA elements that undergo developmentally regulated excision during formation of the macronucleus in the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena.

Trouble in the Tank: A Case Report of Fatal Scuticociliate Encephalitis in a Whitetip Reef Shark (Triaenodon obesus)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract This case report presents a recent case of scuticociliatosis in a whitetip reef shark (Triaenodon obesus), housed at a zoo (Haus des Meeres Aqua Terra Zoo, Vienna, Austria). Clinical signs such as uncoordinated swimming and body tilt were observed prior to death.

Systematics and Multi-Gene Phylogeny of the Subfamily Nothoholostichinae (Ciliophora, Hypotrichia), With Integrative Description of a New Marine Species Nothoholosticha luporinii n. sp.

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Morphogenesis of ciliated protists attracts a lot of attention, because their huge morphological diversity is related to formation of ciliary structures during cell division.

The Macronucleus of Spirostomum

open access: yesNature, 1958
THE purpose of this communication is to describe an interesting property of the macronucleus of a species of Spirostomum, a large freshwater ciliate. The nuclear apparatus of this animal consists of a long cylindrical macronucleus and a number of small micronuclei. The cytology of this species has been described by Seshachar and Padmavathi1.

Developmentally Programmed Switches in DNA Replication: Gene Amplification and Genome-Wide Endoreplication in Tetrahymena

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Locus-specific gene amplification and genome-wide endoreplication generate the elevated copy number of ribosomal DNA (rDNA, 9000 C) and non-rDNA (90 C) chromosomes in the developing macronucleus of Tetrahymena thermophila.

Progeny of Germ Line Knockouts of \u3cem\u3eASI2\u3c/em\u3e, a Gene Encoding a Putative Signal Transduction Receptor in \u3cem\u3eTetrahymena Thermophila\u3c/em\u3e, Fail to Make the Transition from Sexual Reproduction to Vegetative Growth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena has two nuclei: a germ line micronucleus and a somatic macronucleus. The transcriptionally active macronucleus has about 50 copies of each chromosome.

Pulmonary cytology: Pearls and pitfalls of non‐neoplastic mimics of lung cancer

open access: yesCancer Cytopathology, Volume 133, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Lung cancer continues to be the leading cause of cancer‐related mortality, with cytologic samples often serving as the primary diagnostic tool. However, differentiating between benign and malignant processes in lung cytology can be difficult because various non‐neoplastic conditions closely resemble malignant lesions, which may lead to ...

Flow cytometry sorting of nuclei enables the first global characterization of Paramecium germline DNA and transposable elements

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2017
Background DNA elimination is developmentally programmed in a wide variety of eukaryotes, including unicellular ciliates, and leads to the generation of distinct germline and somatic genomes. The ciliate Paramecium tetraurelia harbors two types of nuclei
