Pathogen avoidance by insect predators [PDF]

, 2008
Insects can detect cues related to the risk of attack by their natural enemies. Pathogens are among the natural enemies of insects and entomopathogenic fungi attack a wide array of host species.

Elevated serum antibody against Schistosoma japonicum HSP60 as a promising biomarker for liver pathology in schistosomiasis

Scientific Reports, 2017
The pathology associated with Schistosoma japonicum (S. japonicum) infection in humans is attributed to parasite egg-induced granulomatous inflammation and fibrosis in the host liver.

Schistosoma japonicum infection causes a reprogramming of glycolipid metabolism in the liver

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Background Recent investigations indicate that schistosome infection is closely associated with aberrant glycolipid metabolism. However, the actual glycolipid metabolism gene expression, as well as the possible pathways that regulate glycolipid ...

Pathogen Sensors [PDF]

Sensors, 2009
The development of sensors for detecting foodborne pathogens has been motivated by the need to produce safe foods and to provide better healthcare. However, in the more recent times, these needs have been expanded to encompass issues relating to biosecurity, detection of plant and soil pathogens, microbial communities, and the environment. The range of

Comparative analysis of plant immune receptor architectures uncovers host proteins likely targeted by pathogens. [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Plants deploy immune receptors to detect pathogen-derived molecules and initiate defense responses. Intracellular plant immune receptors called nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) proteins contain a central nucleotide-binding (NB ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

First whole-genome chikungunya virus sequence detected in mosquitoes during the 2025 Foshan outbreak: evidence of field vector infection and transmission potential in China

Infectious Diseases of Poverty
Background Since July 2025, an outbreak of mosquito-borne chikungunya fever has occurred in Foshan City, Guangdong Province, China. This was the second large-scale local outbreak in China after the one that occurred in Dongguan City, Guangdong Province ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Characterising two-pathogen competition in spatially structured environments [PDF]

, 2014
Different pathogens spreading in the same host population often generate complex co-circulation dynamics because of the many possible interactions between the pathogens and the host immune system, the host life cycle, and the space structure of the ...

Genetic diversity of Plasmodium vivax populations from the China–Myanmar border identified by genotyping merozoite surface protein markers

Tropical Medicine and Health, 2023
Background Parasite diversity and population structure influence malaria control measures. Malaria transmission at international borders affects indigenous residents and migrants, defying management efforts and resulting in malaria re-introduction.
