Influence of urbanisation on the prevalence of protozoan parasites of bumblebees
1. Increasing urbanisation is often cited as a cause of declining biodiversity, but for bumblebees there is evidence that urban populations of some species such as Bombus terrestris L.

This research shows high gastrointestinal parasitic infections in the endangered Himalayan musk deer, indicating a significant risk of cross‐transmission from sympatric livestock (chauri and horses). Moreover, distinct host‐specific parasite dominance and habitat‐dependent infection patterns accentuate the need for minimising livestock‐wildlife contact

Eimeria tenella is one of the main causes of coccidiosis in poultry, with increasing drug resistance highlighting the need for alternate control strategies. This study identified Eimeria tenella AMA1 (EtAMA1) as a promising vaccine candidate through structural analysis, epitope prediction, immune simulation, and molecular docking, which demonstrated ...

From Dysbiosis to Disease: How Vaginal Microbiota Shape Group B Streptococcus Pathogenesis
Lactobacillus crispatus plays a critical role in the vaginal microbiome. Limiting glucose shifts metabolism toward HMO consumption and amino acid metabolism. These actions enable alkali production and competition. Homeostasis, characterized by dense Lactobacilli colonization and suppression of pathogens, provides resistance to dysbiosis.

Six nitrile‐based covalent inhibitors are evaluated against cruzain and hCatL. Thermodynamic integration accurately predicts relative binding affinities by modeling the covalent adduct state. We identify a structural difference in the S2 subsite that governs ligand selectivity, offering valuable insights for drug discovery.

ABSTRACT Effective vaccines against Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, are urgently needed. Here, we report the design and in silico validation of a novel multiepitope vaccine construct targeting the key surface proteins ASP‐2 and gp82. Using a comprehensive immunoinformatics pipeline, we identified and selected 38 potent T‐cell (
