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

The gut microbiome organ

iMeta, Volume 5, Issue 4, August 2026.
The gut microbiome can be conceptualized as a distributed organ‐like functional system with spatially structured organization, broad biochemical capacity, and continuous bidirectional communication with the host. By transforming dietary, host‐derived, and environmental substrates into bioactive metabolites with endocrine‐like, immunomodulatory, and ...

Gastrointestinal Parasites in Free‐Ranging Saguinus ursulus From the Eastern Brazilian Amazon: First Report of Prosthenorchis sp.

Journal of Medical Primatology, Volume 55, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Enteroparasites were investigated in free‐ranging Saguinus ursulus from the eastern Brazilian Amazon. Parasites were detected in 76.5% (13/17) of capture events, with Prosthenorchis sp. most frequently detected (58.8%; 10/17). Animals showed good body condition and no clinical abnormalities.

Taxon, Arboreality, Sex, and Season—Factors Influencing Gastrointestinal Parasite Occurrence in Zoo‐Housed Non‐Human Primates

Zoo Biology, Volume 45, Issue 4, Page 371-381, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT The emergence of anthelminthic resistance is a well‐documented phenomenon in livestock and companion animals. Given the scarcity of new antiparasitic drugs, the implementation of effective, holistic anthelminthic control strategies is critical to preserving the efficacy of existing treatments.

International Survey on Screening and Management of Strongyloidiasis in Solid Organ Transplant Patients

Transplant Infectious Disease, Volume 28, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
This international cross‐sectional survey of healthcare workers caring for solid organ transplant patients identified knowledge gaps regarding Strongyloides transmission and mortality, particularly among non‐infectious disease providers. Screening strategies varied geographically, with universal screening more common in endemic areas and targeted ...

Interleukin‐5, Eosinophils, and Interleukin‐5 Pathway Inhibitors in Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Volume 78, Issue 6, Page 1196-1205, June 2026.
Interlukin‐5 (IL‐5) plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) by promoting eosinophil differentiation, activation, and survival. We present here a typical case of EGPA in which treatment with IL‐5 pathway inhibitors is prescribed, showing to be beneficial for the patient.

Cutaneous Larva Migrans Presenting as Eczematous Dermatitis

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cutaneous larva migrans (CLM) is a skin infection caused by animal hookworm larvae. Clinically, it appears as a red, itchy, winding (serpiginous) line, but early lesions can mimic eczema. We report a case of a 66‐year‐old farmer who initially presented with an eczematous lesion on the left foot, which was subsequently diagnosed as CLM ...
