Identification and comparative analysis of G protein-coupled receptors in Pediculus humanus humanus
Genomics, 2014 The body louse has the smallest genome size among the known genome-sequenced insects. Here, 81 GPCRs were identified in Pediculus humanus humanus, 56, 14, 6 and 5 GPCRs for family-A, -B, -C and -D, respectively. These GPCRs constitute the comparable repertoire of GPCRs with other insects.

The Prevalence of Pediculosis in Southern Iran From 2016 to 2021
Journal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Introduction One important measure of community and personal hygiene is the prevalence of lice. Healthcare providers and strategists must analyze this illness across several groups if they are to create sensible plans and services for its decrease. The objective of this study was to find the prevalence of head lice in Iranian endemic regions.

Molecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 20, October 2024.Abstract Genetic analyses of host‐specific parasites can elucidate the evolutionary histories and biological features of their hosts. Here, we used population‐genomic analyses of ectoparasitic seal lice (Echinophthirius horridus) to shed light on the postglacial history of seals in the Arctic Ocean and the Baltic Sea region.

Resilin in Insect Flight Systems
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 34, Issue 35, August 28, 2024.The development of resilin‐based biomaterials for medical and industrial applications has been constantly advanced in recent years. Resilin is a rubber‐like protein that occurs in arthropod exoskeleton structures. In the insect flight system, its function depends on its overall location, protein sequence and mixture with stiffer exoskeleton components.

Studies on the cuticle of the human body louse, Pediculus humanus humanus. [PDF]
, 1982 The cuticular ultrastructure and surface topography of the human body louse, Pediculus humanus humanus, were examined. Under light microscopy, pore canals were readily observed in unstained, cryostat sections of cuticle from various locations on the insect, particularly those areas composed of smooth, sclerotised cuticle.
