Rethinking the extrinsic incubation period of malaria parasites
Parasites & Vectors, 2018 The time it takes for malaria parasites to develop within a mosquito, and become transmissible, is known as the extrinsic incubation period, or EIP. EIP is a key parameter influencing transmission intensity as it combines with mosquito mortality rate and

On the Saturation of the Magnetorotational Instability via Parasitic Modes [PDF]
Astrophys.J.698:L72-L76,2009, 2009 We investigate the stability of incompressible, exact, non-ideal magnetorotational (MRI) modes against parasitic instabilities. Both Kelvin-Helmholtz and tearing-mode parasitic instabilities may occur in the dissipative regimes accessible to current numerical simulations.

Cysteine proteases in protozoan parasites
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018 Cysteine proteases (CPs) play key roles in the pathogenesis of protozoan parasites, including cell/tissue penetration, hydrolysis of host or parasite proteins, autophagy, and evasion or modulation of the host immune response, making them attractive ...

Parasites & Vectors, 2017 Background Ticks secrete a diverse mixture of secretory proteins into the host to evade its immune response and facilitate blood-feeding, making secretory proteins attractive targets for the production of recombinant anti-tick vaccines.

Mathematical model of mating probability and fertilized egg production in helminth parasites [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 In the modeling of parasite transmission dynamics, understanding the reproductive characteristics of these parasites is crucial. This paper presents a mathematical model that explores the reproductive behavior of dioecious parasites and its impact on transmission dynamics.

Numerical study of a three-state host-parasite system on the square lattice [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 83, 046102 (2011), 2010 We numerically study the phase diagram of a three-state host-parasite model on the square lattice motivated by population biology. The model is an extension of the contact process, and the three states correspond to an empty site, a host, and a parasite. We determine the phase diagram of the model by scaling analysis. In agreement with previous results,

Helminth parasites and immune regulation
F1000Research, 2018 Helminth parasites are complex metazoans that belong to different taxonomic families but that collectively share the capacity to downregulate the host immune response directed toward themselves (parasite-specific immunoregulation).

GeneDB and Wikidata [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]
Wellcome Open Research, 2019 Publishing authoritative genomic annotation data, keeping it up to date, linking it to related information, and allowing community annotation is difficult and hard to support with limited resources. Here, we show how importing GeneDB annotation data into
