Sulfa Resistance and Dihydropteroate Synthase Mutants in Recurrent Pneumocystis carinii Pneumonia
Failure of sulfa or sulfone prophylaxis is associated with mutations in Pneumocystis carinii gene coding for dihydropteroate synthase (DHPS). The DHPS genotype was analyzed in AIDS patients who had two separate episodes of P. carinii pneumonia.

Comparative genomics suggests that the fungal pathogen pneumocystis is an obligate parasite scavenging amino acids from its host's lungs. [PDF]
Pneumocystis jirovecii is a fungus causing severe pneumonia in immuno-compromised patients. Progress in understanding its pathogenicity and epidemiology has been hampered by the lack of a long-term in vitro culture method.

What's new? New antibody‐drug conjugates (ADCs) and immunotherapies have helped expand treatment options for urothelial carcinoma (UC). Clinical trials suggest that the ADC enfortumab vedotin (EV) and the immunotherapeutic agent pembrolizumab, when used in combination, are especially effective against UC.

A retrospective case series of 66 foals with presumed acute interstitial pneumonia
Summary Background There is limited literature describing acute interstitial pneumonia (AIP) in foals. Objectives Description of clinical and ultrasonographic findings in 66 foals affected by AIP. Investigation into whether the number of AIP cases is associated with specific climatic conditions. We also investigated whether clinical, haematological and

Exploring microorganism–host interactions: Emerging organoid models and analytical approaches
Abstract Microorganisms play a vital role in human health through their interactions with the body. Studies of host–microbe mechanisms and interactions are crucial for advancing health management. Recently, the organoid‐based models have provided new platforms in this field.

Ploidy of cell-sorted trophic and cystic forms of Pneumocystis carinii.
Once regarded as an AIDS-defining illness, Pneumocystis pneumonia (PcP) is nowadays prevailing in immunocompromised HIV-negative individuals such as patients receiving immunosuppressive therapies or affected by primary immunodeficiency.

Vitamin D‐Mediated Hypercalcemia in a Dog With Putative Cutaneous Pythiosis
ABSTRACT A 12‐month‐old dog was diagnosed with cutaneous pythiosis after presenting with a nonhealing metatarsal wound, an inguinal mass, and regional lymphadenopathy. Both cytology of the abnormal lymph nodes and histopathology of the inguinal mass showed granulomatous inflammation. ELISA serology was positive for Pythium insidiosum. The dog developed

Antimicrobial prescribing guidelines for horses in Australia
The growing problem of antimicrobial resistance also affects equine veterinarians with increasing frequency. Antimicrobial stewardship and responsible prescribing are essential for a future in which effective antimicrobials are available, as it is unlikely that new antimicrobials will become available for use in horses.
