Tissue Resident Memory Cells: Friend or Foe?

Immunology, EarlyView.
Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM cells) are specialised immune cells in barrier tissues like the lungs, skin and gut, providing rapid host defence and tumour surveillance. Their retention and differentiation are regulated by molecules such as CD69, CD103 and TGF‐β. Dysregulation of TRM cells can lead to chronic activation, driving conditions such as

Biogenesis of the inner membrane complex is dependent on vesicular transport by the alveolate specific GTPase Rab11B [PDF]

, 2010
Apicomplexan parasites belong to a recently recognised group of protozoa referred to as Alveolata. These protists contain membranous sacs (alveoli) beneath the plasma membrane, termed the Inner Membrane Complex (IMC) in the case of Apicomplexa.

Toxoplasma gondii in rodents and shrews in Armenia, Transcaucasia

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife
Toxoplasma gondii infections in small mammals are important because they serve as source of infection for the felids who excrete environmentally resistant oocysts in their feces. Here, the authors sought evidence for T.

Seroprevalence of Toxoplasma gondii antibodies and associated risk factors among children in Shandong and Jilin provinces, China

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2015
Objective: Infection by the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii is generally prevalent in animals and humans worldwide. However, little is known about T. gondii infection among children in China.

Characterization of Sec14 Domain–Containing Proteins in the Malaria Parasite Plasmodium falciparum

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
During asexual blood‐stage development, P. falciparum Sec14 proteins display distinct localizations suggesting specialized roles in lipid exchange. PfSec14‐1 initially localizes to the nucleus before moving to the ER and Golgi alongside PfSec14‐4 during schizogony.

INVESTIGATION OF TOXOPLASMA INFECTIONS IN NATIVE POULTRY OF TABRIZ CITY USING ELISA AND INDIRECT IMMUNOFLUORESCENCE METHODS [PDF]

Exploratory Animal and Medical Research, 2017
Toxoplasma gondii is widely distributed in humans and other animals and birds throughout the world. Toxoplasmosis is a common zoonotic infection in the world and in immune-deficient patients, it may cause acute and lethal infection.

Unexpected Suppression of Tomato Fruit Cuticle Formation by Overexpression of a Key Cutin Biosynthetic Enzyme

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fruit cuticles regulate the diffusion of water, gases and solutes, functioning as essential protective interfaces against environmental and biotic stresses. Engineering cuticle structure and mechanics therefore represents a promising strategy for improving fruit quality and resilience.

Invasive Fungal Infections in Heart Transplants: A 10‐Year, Single Centre Retrospective Cohort Study From Subtropical Australia

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
In this 10‐year retrospective cohort study of heart transplant recipients in subtropical Australia, we characterize the incidence and microbiological profile of invasive fungal infections, highlighting the underappreciated burden of late‐onset and non‐Aspergillus mold infections and the potential underdiagnosis of polymicrobial disease.
