Induced hyperlipaemia and immune challenge in locusts [PDF]
Injections of immunogens, such as β-1,3-glucan or lipopolysaccharide (LPS), bring about a marked hyperlipaemia with associated changes in lipophorins and apolipophorin-III in the haemolymph of Locusta migratoria.

Genome of Leptomonas pyrrhocoris:a high-quality reference for monoxenous trypanosomatids and new insights into evolution of Leishmania [PDF]
Many high-quality genomes are available for dixenous (two hosts) trypanosomatid species of the genera Trypanosoma, Leishmania, and Phytomonas, but only fragmentary information is available for monoxenous (single-host) trypanosomatids. In trypanosomatids,
