Molecular and biochemical responses in the midgut of the silkworm, Bombyx mori, infected with Nosema bombycis [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2018 Background Microsporidia are a group of eukaryotic intracellular parasites that infect almost all vertebrates and invertebrates. However, there is little information available of how microsporidia obtain nutrients and energy from host cells.

Unveiling the conserved mechanism of microsporidian vertical transmission: A comparative study of Nosema infection across host species [PDF]
VirulenceMicrosporidia, ubiquitous obligate intracellular parasites infecting a wide range of hosts from humans to economically vital animals, employ transovarial transmission (TOT) as their primary vertical transmission mode.

Easy labeling of proliferative phase and sporogonic phase of microsporidia Nosema bombycis in host cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Microsporidia are eukaryotic, unicellular parasites that have been studied for more than 150 years. These organisms are extraordinary in their ability to invade a wide range of hosts including vertebrates and invertebrates, such as human and commercially

Detection and Characterization of Nosema bombycis Using TEM and SEM Techniques. [PDF]
Arch Razi Inst, 2022 Pebrine disease is the most important and dangerous disease of silkworm caused by Nosema bombycis as an obligate intracellular parasitic fungus. It has caused tremendous economic losses in the silk industry in recent years. Given the fact that light microscopy method (with low accuracy) is the only method for diagnosing pebrine disease in the country ...

Identification and subcellular localisation of hexokinase-2 in Nosema bombycis [PDF]
Folia Parasitologica, 2020 Hexokinase (HXK) is the first key enzyme in the glycolytic pathway and plays an extremely important role in energy metabolism. By searching the microsporidian database, we found a sequence (NBO_27g0008) of Nosema bombycis Nägali, 1857 with high similarity to hexokinase-2, and named it as NbHXK2.

Identification, Diversity and Evolution of MITEs in the Genomes of Microsporidian Nosema Parasites. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITEs) are short, non-autonomous DNA transposons, which are widespread in most eukaryotic genomes. However, genome-wide identification, origin and evolution of MITEs remain largely obscure in microsporidia.

Genome-wide transcriptional response of silkworm (Bombyx mori) to infection by the microsporidian Nosema bombycis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Microsporidia have attracted much attention because they infect a variety of species ranging from protists to mammals, including immunocompromised patients with AIDS or cancer. Aside from the study on Nosema ceranae, few works have focused on elucidating
