Chemical disinfection of Encephalitozoon cuniculi: toward evidence-based infection control guidelines

Frontiers in Microbiology
BackgroundEncephalitozoon cuniculi is an opportunistic pathogen with significant zoonotic potential, particularly for immunocompromised individuals. However, evidence-based disinfection protocols against its environmentally resistant spores are lacking ...

Microsporidia–host interactions [PDF]

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2015
Microsporidia comprise one of the largest groups of obligate intracellular pathogens and can infect virtually all animals, but host response to these fungal-related microbes has been poorly understood. Several new studies of the host transcriptional response to microsporidia infection have found infection-induced regulation of genes involved in innate ...

A Large Collection of Novel Nematode-Infecting Microsporidia and Their Diverse Interactions with Caenorhabditis elegans and Other Related Nematodes. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2016
Microsporidia are fungi-related intracellular pathogens that may infect virtually all animals, but are poorly understood. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has recently become a model host for studying microsporidia through the identification of its ...

First Report of Enterocytozoon bieneusi, Encephalitozoon spp. and Blastocystis spp. in Hair Goats in Türkiye

Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Blastocystis spp., Enterocytozoon bieneusi and Encephalitozoon spp. are prevalent zoonotic gastrointestinal parasites that cause severe diarrhoea and enteric diseases in humans and animals worldwide. This study investigated the molecular occurrence, genetic diversity and zoonotic potential of E. bieneusi, Blastocystis spp.

Comparative genomics of microsporidia [PDF]

Folia Parasitologica, 2005
Microsporidia have been known for some time to possess among the smallest genomes of any eukaryote. There is now a completely sequenced microsporidian genome, as well as several other large-scale sequencing efforts, so the nature of these genomes is becoming apparent.

Renal Trichodinosis in the Japanese Rice Fish, Oryzias latipes: First Report and Phylogenetic Classification

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Investigation of a disease outbreak in a hobbyist's medaka (Oryzias latipes) collection led to the detection of Trichodina sp. in the kidney tubuli of individual fish. Based on this observation, a thorough clinical workup, including native microscopy, histopathology and molecular genetics, was conducted.

Unshared on the top: strong segregation of pathogen communities between western honey bees and wild bees in a retreating glacier foreland

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Shared flowers can facilitate pathogen transmission between managed honey bees and wild bees, yet this process remains poorly understood in ecosystems undergoing rapid environmental change. Using a glacier foreland in Switzerland, we present the first study on how glacier retreat stages and bee life‐history traits influence pathogen occurrence across ...
