LEISHMANICIDAL ACTIVITY in vivo OF A MILTEFOSINE DERIVATIVE IN Mesocricetus auratus

Acta Tropica, 2020
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a chronic and systemic disease; if untreated, it can cause death in a large number of cases. The therapy is based on the use of antimonials, which have been used for over 50 years. However, cases of resistance have been reported in some countries.

Histological analysis of scent glands in banded mongooses, with implications for chemical communication

Journal of Zoology, Volume 328, Issue 1, Page 76-90, January 2026.
We investigated the distribution and structure of scent glands in the banded mongoose (Mungos mungo), a cooperatively breeding, group‐living mammal. Histological analyses revealed relatively large anal glands and a previously undescribed cheek gland, but no specialised scent glands in the chin or abdomen.

Attenuated Infectious Bronchitis Virus (IBV) Vaccination Induces Protective Humoral and Cellular Immunity Against SARS‐CoV‐2 in Mammals

Journal of Immunology Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Occupational exposure to infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) has been associated with cross‐reactivity to other coronaviruses such as SARS‐CoV‐2. In this study, we investigated the immune response of IBV using reconstituted samples of the commercial H120 Mass‐I vaccine (Zoetis) against SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.

Piplartine as an Innovative Natural Product With Dual Antiparasitic and Immunomodulatory Actions

Journal of Immunology Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) remain a major global health burden, disproportionately affecting low‐ and middle‐income regions and demanding innovative therapeutic strategies. This review summarizes current evidence on piplartine (piperlongumine), a naturally occurring amide from Piper species with broad antiparasitic and immunomodulatory ...

Unveiling Novel Viral Diversity, Biogeography, and Host Networks in Wildlife Through High‐Throughput Sequencing Data Mining

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 46, December 11, 2025.
Analysis of 57 536 high‐throughput sequencing datasets uncovers a vast, hidden world of viruses in wildlife. The researchers reveal significant geographic and host‐specific patterns of viruses, and their surprising cross‐species transmissions, such as avian flu viruses infecting goats.
