Opportunistic Feeding and Parasite Assemblages in Sei Whales (Balaenoptera borealis) From Southern Chile Revealed by DNA Metabarcoding

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study represents the first metabarcoding‐based description of prey composition and parasite‐associated taxa in stranded sei whales from southern South America. ABSTRACT Balaenopterid whales are major consumers in pelagic ecosystems and play a fundamental role in marine food webs.

Estuarine benthic diversity declines with temperature across a tropical–temperate gradient

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Estuarine benthic sediments are important habitats that support ecosystem health and productivity, but the drivers of large‐scale patterns in benthic diversity are not well documented. Using 18S amplicon sequencing of 425 sediment DNA samples from estuaries spanning 20° of latitude along Australia's east coast, we assessed tropical–temperate patterns ...

Food Contamination and Safety in Nigeria: A Systematic Synthesis of Heavy Metals, Microbial Pathogens, and Health Risk Metrics

Food Safety and Health, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 805-823, October 2026.
This is an infographic driver of food contaminants and health effects. ABSTRACT Food safety remains a critical challenge in Nigeria due to rapid urbanization and weak regulatory enforcement. This systematic review synthesizes empirical evidence from 2015 to 2025 to characterize food contaminant profiles and associated human health risks in Nigeria ...

The roles of intramembrane proteases in protozoan parasites

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2013
Intramembrane proteolysis is widely conserved throughout different forms of life, with three major types of proteases being known for their ability to cleave peptide bonds directly within the transmembrane domains of their substrates. Although intramembrane proteases have been extensively studied in humans and model organisms, they have only more ...

Parasites of feral cats and native fauna from Western Australia: the application of molecular techniques for the study of parasitic infections in Australian wildlife [PDF]

, 2003
A survey of gastro-intestinal parasites was conducted on faecal samples collected from 379 feral cats and 851 native fauna from 16 locations throughout Western Australia. The prevalence of each parasite species detected varied depending upon the sampling

Intracellular protozoan parasites and apoptosis: diverse strategies to modulate parasite–host interactions

, 2001
Programmed cell death (apoptosis) is an important regulator of the host's response during infection with a variety of intracellular protozoan parasites. Parasitic pathogens have evolved diverse strategies to induce or inhibit host-cell apoptosis, thereby

Structural Insights Into the Function of Leishmania major Adenylosuccinate Lyase

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 10, Page 1686-1701, October 2026.
ABSTRACT One of several intriguing aspects of kinetoplastid biochemistry is the complete dependence on host purines and purine recycling due to the lack of a de novo purine biosynthesis pathway. Adenylosuccinate lyase (ASL, EC 4.3.2.2) is a key enzyme in the purine synthesis pathway responsible for the conversion of adenylosuccinate into adenosine ...
