Prevalence of intestinal trichomonads in captive non-human primates in China

Parasite
Trichomonads are protozoan symbionts with the capacity to infect vertebrates including humans and non-human primates (NHPs), sometimes with pathogenic effects. However, their diversity and prevalence in NHPs in China are poorly understood. A total of 533

Evaluation of the Utilization Pattern of Veterinary Drugs in Selected Veterinary Clinics of Mekelle City, Tigray, Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
Veterinary drug utilization patterns were assessed in three veterinary clinics in Mekelle City, Ethiopia. Antimicrobials, particularly oxytetracycline, constitute the majority of prescriptions, followed by anthelmintics. Drug prescribing frequently relies on tentative diagnosis rather than evidence‐based diagnostic procedures.

Identification of Distinct Interacting Proteins of Giardia lamblia Centrins Using Yeast Two‐Hybrid Assays

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Giardia lamblia, a protozoan parasite that causes diarrhea in humans, contains two centrins implicated in cellular morphology and cell division. To identify proteins interacting with each G. lamblia centrin (GlCent), we performed a yeast two‐hybrid assay.

dUTPase is essential in zebrafish development and possesses several single‐nucleotide variants with pronounced structural and functional consequences

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 6, Page 1087-1101, June 2026.
dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...

Landscape wetness and beaver wetlands enhance environmental prevalence of Francisella spp.

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Identifying the contributions of biotic and abiotic factors in pathogen transmission is essential to mitigate vector‐borne and zoonotic disease risk. Francisella tularensis is the etiological agent of the infectious disease tularemia in wildlife and humans. Environmental factors driving transmission in wildlife, including the role of hares and
