An All‐in‐One Metabarcoding Approach to Mosquito and Arbovirus Xenosurveillance

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 8, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) has the potential to transform mosquito‐borne disease surveillance but remains under‐utilised. This study introduces a comprehensive multi‐loci metabarcoding‐based MX (molecular xenomonitoring) approach to mosquito and arbovirus surveillance, enabling parallel identification of mosquito vectors, circulating ...

The Effect of Climate Change on Emergence and Evolution of Zoonotic Diseases in Asia

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 7, Page 587-611, November 2025.
ABSTRACT As the climate of Asia changes under the influence of global warming, the incidence and spatial distribution of known zoonoses will evolve, and new zoonoses are expected to emerge as a result of greater exposure to organisms which currently occur only in wildlife.

When Hepatitis Masks Visceral Leishmaniasis: A Case of Secondary HLH in a Low‐Endemic Region

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Visceral leishmaniasis (VL)–associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare but life‐threatening hyperinflammatory syndrome. Diagnosis is often challenging due to overlapping clinical features, especially in low‐endemic regions, where VL is not initially suspected.

Therapeutic Effect of Barberry (Berberis vulgaris) Root Extract on Experimental Cutaneous Leishmaniosis in a BALB/c Mouse Model

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2025.
Barberry (Berberis vulgaris) root extract shows potential in treating cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania major. In a BALB/c mouse model, treatment significantly reduced wound size and parasite load while enhancing inflammatory markers IL‐1 and IL‐6. These results highlight barberry's therapeutic promise against leishmaniasis.
