Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Migratory behaviour in seasonal environments affects host–pathogen relationships, especially for vector‐transmitted blood parasites of the order Haemosporida. The common starling Sturnus vulgaris is a short‐distance migrant where the north‐eastern European breeding population spend the non‐breeding season in temperate mild western Europe.

Insect Science, EarlyView.This study investigates the potential of enhancing the resistance of Glossina palpalis gambiensis to Trypanosoma brucei gambiense to mitigate the transmission of Human African Trypanosomiasis. We successfully cloned genes encoding proteins of interest in Sodalis strains, resulting in recombinant Sodalis (recSodalis) that were micro‐injected into the L3

Stress in dipteran insects mass‐reared for sterile insect technique applications
Insect Science, EarlyView.The connections between biotic and abiotic stress affecting mass‐reared dipteran insects and the associated stress and immunological responses. Numbers indicate the order in which the topics are discussed in this review. Abstract Stress may be viewed as the disturbance of homeostasis of an organism.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.This study identifies Polychromophilus sp. in blood‐feeding flies (Basilia speiseri and Basilia lindolphoi) from Myotis nigricans bats in Brazil, marking the first molecular detection of the parasite in an insect vector in this country. Two haplotypes were identified, both within the Polychromophilus murinus group.

PacBio assembly of a Plasmodium knowlesi genome sequence with Hi-C correction and manual annotation of the SICAvar gene family. [PDF]
, 2018 Plasmodium knowlesi has risen in importance as a zoonotic parasite that has been causing regular episodes of malaria throughout South East Asia. The P. knowlesi genome sequence generated in 2008 highlighted and confirmed many similarities and differences

Molecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Vector control remains an important strategy worldwide to prevent human infection with pathogens transmitted by arthropods. Vector control strategies rely on accurate identification of vector taxa along with vector‐specific biological indicators such as feeding ecology, infection prevalence and insecticide resistance.

The 15‐Year Survival Advantage: Immune Resilience as a Salutogenic Force in Healthy Aging
Aging Cell, EarlyView.Human aging shows puzzling diversity: similar aging rates yet vastly different health outcomes. Our study of ~17,500 people revealed a health‐promoting trait (more common in women) linked to strong immune resilience and high expression of TCF7, a key immune gene. This trait enables individuals to fight infections like COVID‐19 more effectively, respond

Annals of Human Genetics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Dyslipidemia is becoming prevalent in Africa, where malaria is endemic. Observational studies have documented the long‐term protective effect of malaria on dyslipidemia; however, these study designs are prone to confounding. Therefore, we used Mendelian randomization (MR, a method robust to confounders and reverse causation) to ...

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Aim Internationally adopted and migrant children have similar profiles as they may have experienced many adversities before arrival in their new country. We sought to compare both groups at arrival, focusing on nutritional status, infections and vaccination status.

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) result from immune self‐tolerance loss, causing tissue damage. Standard treatments targeting late‐stage inflammation often have serious side effects. Artemisinin, known for its antimalarial properties, shows potential immunomodulatory effects.
