Advances in the Gut‐Lung Axis and Bronchial Asthma: From Mechanisms to Therapeutic Potential
Clinical and Translational Allergy, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.ABSTRACT Background Bronchial asthma (hereafter referred to as asthma) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by chronic airway inflammation, airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR), and reversible airflow limitation. Recent advancements in the “gut‐lung” axis concept have elucidated the intricate immunometabolic crosstalk between the gastrointestinal tract

Enrichment of Helminth Mitochondrial Genomes From Faecal Samples Using Hybridisation Capture
Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 8, November 2025.ABSTRACT New approaches are urgently needed to enrich rare or low‐abundant DNA in complex samples. Soil‐transmitted helminths (STHs) inhabit heterogeneous environments, including the gastrointestinal tract of their host as adults and are excreted as eggs and larvae in faeces, complicating our understanding of their biology and the use of genetic tools ...

Do Snow‐Adapted Prey Facilitate Coexistence of the Sierra Nevada Red Fox With Sympatric Carnivores?
Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 20, October 2025.ABSTRACT Specialist species in alpine ecosystems may be increasingly threatened by climate‐driven habitat loss and encroachment by generalist competitors. Ecological theory predicts that niche differentiation through dietary specialisation can facilitate coexistence with generalist competitors.

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 30, Issue 10, Page 1115-1123, October 2025.ABSTRACT Leprosy presents a broad clinical spectrum influenced by the host's immune response, and co‐infections may further modulate disease progression. This study evaluated clinically diagnosed leprosy patients (n = 251) from Sergipe and Minas Gerais, Brazil, along with healthy controls (n = 43), soil‐transmitted helminths‐positive controls (n = 15),

Effect of hookworm infection on wheat challenge in celiac disease--a randomised double-blinded placebo controlled trial. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The association between hygiene and prevalence of autoimmune disease has been attributed in part to enteric helminth infection. A pilot study of experimental infection with the hookworm Necator americanus was undertaken among a group of otherwise healthy

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2025.ABSTRACT We report a case of imported Clonorchis sinensis infection under the modality of “visiting friends and relatives.” Clonorchis was not diagnosed initially, and a second stool sample was necessary. It is important that health personnel collect detailed information from the patient and be trained in parasitological diagnosis of imported ...
