Comparative genomics reveals adaptive evolution of Asian tapeworm in switching to a new intermediate host

Nature Communications, 2016
Only one of the three Taenia species causing taeniasis in humans was previously sequenced. Here the authors provide draft genomes of Taenia saginata and Taenia asiatica, analyse genome evolution of all three species, and identify potential targets for ...

The morphological and molecular identification of the tapeworm, Taenia lynciscapreoli, in intermediate and definitive hosts in Poland

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2020
The tapeworm Taenia lynciscapreoli is a new species of the genus Taenia described in 2016, and which remains poorly understood. The aim of the present study is to extend current knowledge regarding its, morphology and genome.

Emerging role of metagenomic next‐generation sequencing in infectious disease diagnostics: Clinical integration and future directions

mLife, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 148-163, April 2026.
Abstract Infectious disease diagnostics has been transformed by metagenomic next‐generation sequencing (mNGS), an unbiased approach that detects bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites in a single assay. By sequencing all nucleic acids in a sample, mNGS overcomes the narrow detection scope and slow turnaround of conventional tests, substantially ...

Plant‐produced encapsulin displays non‐typhoidal Salmonella enterica antigens and assembles into mosaic nanoparticles

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 7, Page 1908-1929, April 2026.
This study investigates the potential of encapsulin as an antigen display platform for the development of a candidate Salmonella vaccine for poultry. Encapsulin constructs were transiently expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana where they accumulated to high levels.

Wildlife-transmitted Taenia and Versteria cysticercosis and coenurosis in humans and other primates

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2019
Wild mustelids and canids are definitive hosts of Taenia and Versteria spp. while rodents act as natural intermediate hosts. Rarely, larval stages of these parasites can cause serious zoonoses.

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 5, Page 591-611, March 2026.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...
