Stool‐Test Positivity Proportion and Five‐Year Trend of Intestinal Parasitic Infections Among Symptomatic Students Attending Debre Tabor University Student Clinic, Northwest Ethiopia: A Retrospective Cross‐Sectional Study (2021–2025)

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Intestinal parasitic infections (IPIs) remain a significant public health challenge in Ethiopia, particularly among university students living in communal settings. However, limited data exist on the trends of these infections among university students.

Differences in the gene expression profiles of Haemocytes from Schistosome-susceptible and -resistant Biomphalaria glabrata exposed to Schistosoma mansoni excretory-secretory products [PDF]

, 2014
During its life cycle, the helminth parasite Schistosoma mansoni uses the freshwater snail Biomphalaria glabrata as an intermediate host to reproduce asexually generating cercariae for infection of the human definitive host.

Selective Packaging of miR‐22 and miR‐29 Orthologues into Extracellular Vesicles of the Porcine Whipworm Trichuris Suis

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Helminths modulate host immunity, and in this respect, the porcine whipworm Trichuris suis has been explored clinically as an immunotherapy for inflammatory diseases. T. suis secretes a complex mixture of excretory/secretory products (ESP), including extracellular vesicles (EVs), nanosized membranous particles with bioactive cargoes of lipids,

Quaternary structures of Streptococcus pneumoniae nucleoside diphosphate kinase: From hexamers to supramolecular assemblies

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDK) is a key enzyme that controls the balance of nucleotide pools in all living organisms. Beyond this fundamental role, NDKs exert pleiotropic effects in many cellular processes, including cell development, signal transduction, differentiation, tumor metastasis, and gene expression. The quaternary structure

Total synthesis and structural characterization of a novel protein scaffold from the snail Biomphalaria glabrata

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Disulfide‐rich miniproteins constitute compact and highly stable scaffolds of growing interest for molecular and structural engineering. Schistosomins are ~80‐residue proteins conserved across gastropods that form a long‐standing orphan family whose structure and biological roles have remained unknown.

Evolutionary Analysis of the Cystatin Family in Three Schistosoma Species

Frontiers in Genetics, 2014
The cystatin family comprises cysteine protease inhibitors distributed in 3 subfamilies (I25A-C). Family members lacking cystatin activity are currently unclassified. Little is known about the evolution of Schistosoma cystatins, their physiological roles,

Synthesis and Antiparasitic Activities of New Organometallic Derivatives of the Benzimidazole Anthelmintic Drugs

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 15, 14 August 2026.
Organometallic derivatization of existing drugs is a common strategy to look for new drug candidates. This work describes the derivatization of the benzimidazole anthelmintic scaffold, from the synthesis of the organometallic derivatives to the evaluation of their biological properties. It highlights a broad range of antiparasitic activities and leaves
