Endoparasite Prevalence in the Mountain Bongo (Tragelaphus eurycerus spp. isaaci) at Mount Kenya Wildlife Conservancy

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Parasite–host interactions influence the success of wildlife reintroductions. The mountain bongo (Tragelaphus eurycerus isaaci) is a critically endangered antelope found only in Kenya's montane forests, with fewer than 100 remaining in the wild. It is, therefore, imperative to re‐establish a viable, healthy, and self‐sustaining population in its native

Stricturing Diseases of the Gastrointestinal Tract—Current Clinical Practice

JGH Open, Volume 10, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal stricture can occur in the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, and anorectum. Most of the strictures are benign. The prevalence of esophageal strictures (ES) secondary to eosinophilic esophagitis has increased. Pyloric stenosis (PS) is rarely seen in clinical practice.

Transcriptomic and Proteomic Analyses Show Minimal Role for ST2 on MCPT5‐Expressing Mast Cells in Primary Heligmosomoides polygyrus bakeri Infection

Parasite Immunology, Volume 48, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The IL‐33/ST2 pathway is important as part of the type 2 immune response against helminth infections. Mast cells express the highest levels of the IL‐33 receptor subunit ST2 of any immune cell, and mast cells can mediate type 2 immune inflammation; however, the role of IL‐33‐driven mast cell responses in helminth infection is poorly understood.

Adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma in French Guiana (1990–2019): Epidemiology, clinical features, and HTLV‐1 genetic diversity in the two main ethnic populations

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 6, Page 1528-1540, 15 March 2026.
What's new? Adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) is a rare and aggressive malignancy caused by human T‐cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV‐1). The authors comprehensively analyzed the epidemiological and clinical features of ATL over a 30‐year period in French Guiana, a region with high HTLV‐1 endemicity and a multiethnic population.
