Evaluation of Praziquantel Efficacy against Zeuxapta seriolae Infections in Greater Amberjack, Seriola dumerili

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of dietary praziquantel (PZQ), a promising fish anthelminthic, against Zeuxapta seriolae, a lethal ectoparasite of greater amberjack (Seriola dumerili Risso) farmed in the Mediterranean and elsewhere ...

Prevalence of gastrointestinal helminth infections in ovine population of Kashmir Valley [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary World, 2015
Aim: Gastrointestinal (GI) helminth parasitism is one of the major constraints for profitable sheep production. Due to variations in the prevalence of GI helminths from region to region, it becomes important to map out accurately the parasitic fauna of a

Comparative analysis of cystatin superfamily in platyhelminths. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The cystatin superfamily is comprised of cysteine proteinase inhibitors and encompasses at least 3 subfamilies: stefins, cystatins and kininogens. In this study, the platyhelminth cystatin superfamily was identified and grouped into stefin and cystatin ...

The evolution of TNF signaling in platyhelminths suggests the cooptation of TNF receptor in the host-parasite interplay

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2020
Background The TNF signaling pathway is involved in the regulation of many cellular processes (such as apoptosis and cell proliferation). Previous reports indicated the effect of human TNF-α on metabolism, physiology, gene expression and protein ...

Tissue-specific transcriptome analyses provide new insights into GPCR signalling in adult Schistosoma mansoni. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2018
Schistosomes are blood-dwelling trematodes with global impact on human and animal health. Because medical treatment is currently based on a single drug, praziquantel, there is urgent need for the development of alternative control strategies.

Septins of Platyhelminths: identification, phylogeny, expression and localization among developmental stages of Schistosoma mansoni. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2013
Septins are a family of eukaryotic GTP binding proteins conserved from yeasts to humans. Originally identified in mutants of budding yeast, septins participate in diverse cellular functions including cytokinesis, organization of actin networks, cell ...
