Phospholipases A and Lysophospholipases in protozoan parasites [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobial Cell, 2023
Phospholipases (PLs) and Lysophospholipases (LysoPLs) are a diverse group of esterases responsible for phospholipid or lysophospholipid hydrolysis. They are involved in several biological processes, including lipid catabolism, modulation of the immune ...

Microglia and astrocyte responses to neuropathogenic protozoan parasites [PDF]

open access: yesFac Rev, 2021
Cerebral toxoplasmosis and cerebral malaria are two important neurological diseases caused by protozoan parasites. In this review, we discuss recent findings regarding the innate immune responses of microglia and astrocytes to Toxoplasma and Plasmodium ...

Mucins in protozoan parasites [PDF]

open access: bronzeFrontiers in Bioscience, 2001
Studies on host-pathogen interactions have led to the discovery of various cell surface associated and secretory molecules. Mucins and mucin-like molecules have recently been described in several protozoan parasites, at different stages of the life cycle.

H+-translocating pyrophosphatases in protozoan parasites. [PDF]

open access: yesParasitol Res
AbstractIntegral membrane pyrophosphatases (mPPases) hydrolyze pyrophosphate. This enzymatic mechanism is coupled with the pumping of H + and/or Na + across membranes, which can be either K + -dependent or K + -independent. Inorganic proton–translocating pyrophosphatases (H + -PPases) can transport protons across cell membranes and are reported in ...

Protozoan parasites of Vannamei Shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) in farmed fish from Pasuruan, Indonesia

open access: diamondIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environment, 2019
This work investigated the protozoan parasites infesting the vannamei shrimp in farmed fish from Pasuruan, Indonesia. The protozoan parasites found in infested vannamei shrimp were ectoparasites; the protozoan Zoothamnium sp., Vorticella sp.

Drug resistance in protozoan parasites [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Topics in Life Sciences, 2017
As with all other anti-infectives (antibiotics, anti-viral drugs, and anthelminthics), the limited arsenal of anti-protozoal drugs is being depleted by a combination of two factors: increasing drug resistance and the failure to replace old and often ...
