Genetic modification of the protozoan Eimeria tenella using the CRISPR/Cas9 system

Veterinary Research, 2020
Eimeria tenella has emerged as valuable model organism for studying the biology and immunology of protozoan parasites with the establishment of the reverse genetic manipulation platform.

Exploring genetic variability of Giardia duodenalis and Enterocytozoon bieneusi in raw vegetables and fruits: implications for food safety and public health in Mozambique

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Giardia duodenalis and Enterocytozoon bieneusi are etiological agents of enteric diseases characterized by diarrhea that can progress to chronicity in humans, especially in children and in immunocompromised patients. This study aims to assess the genetic

Local ciliate communities associated with aquatic macrophytes [PDF]

, 2014
This study, based within the catchment area of the River Frome, an important chalk stream in the south of England, compared ciliated protozoan communities associated with three species of aquatic macrophyte common to lotic habitats: Ranunculus ...

Dynamics of methanogenesis, ruminal fermentation and fiber digestibility in ruminants following elimination of protozoa: a meta-analysis

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2018
Ruminal microbes are vital to the conversion of lignocellulose-rich plant materials into nutrients for ruminants. Although protozoa play a key role in linking ruminal microbial networks, the contribution of protozoa to rumen fermentation remains ...

Amino acid composition of rumen bacteria and protozoa in cattle.

Journal of Dairy Science, 2017
Because microbial crude protein (MCP) constitutes more than 50% of the protein digested in cattle, its AA composition is needed to adequately estimate AA supply.

The common mouse protozoa Tritrichomonas muris alters mucosal T cell homeostasis and colitis susceptibility

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2016
Escalante et al. show that a highly prevalent mouse intestinal protozoa, Tritrichomonas muris, was found to be a confounding factor in murine colitis.

Effect of condensed tannins from Leucaena leucocephala on rumen fermentation, methane production and population of rumen protozoa in heifers fed low-quality forage

Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2017
Objective The aim of the experiment was to assess the effect of increasing amounts of Leucaena leucocephala forage on dry matter intake (DMI), organic matter intake (OMI), enteric methane production, rumen fermentation pattern and protozoa population in ...

Toxoplasma gondii Infection Induces High Mobility Group Box 1 Released from Mouse Macrophages

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is abundantly expressed in intracellular engaged DNA binding ability. However, more importantly, it is a weapon against infection through proinflammatory response and immune regulation while released to extracellular ...
