Using axenic and gnotobiotic insects to examine the role of different microbes on the development and reproduction of the kissing bug Rhodnius prolixus (Hemiptera: Reduviidae)

Molecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 920-935, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Kissing bugs (Hempitera: Reduviidae) are obligately and exclusively blood feeding insects. Vertebrate blood is thought to provide insufficient B vitamins to insects, which rely on symbiotic relationships with bacteria that provision these nutrients.

Plasma Levels of Matrix Metalloproteinases 2 and 9 in Patients with Chronic Chagas Heart Disease and Systemic Arterial Hypertension: Correlation with TGF‐Beta Plasma Levels

Cardiology Research and Practice, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Background. Chronic Chagas heart disease (CCHD) and systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) frequently coexists in areas where Chagas disease is endemic. The effects of the association of both conditions (CCHD‐SAH) on the extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling are unknown. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) 2 and 9 are involved in ECM remodeling.

Current review of isoxazoline ectoparasiticides used in veterinary medicine

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, Volume 45, Issue 1, Page 1-15, January 2022., 2022
Abstract The isoxazolines are a novel class of ectoparasiticides with potent inhibitory activity on glutamate‐ and gamma‐aminobutyric acid‐gated chloride channel located in nervous system of invertebrates. In recent years, studies have been performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of isoxazolines against various types of ectoparasites, including ...

Generation of a humanized FXII knock‐in mouse—A powerful model system to test novel anti‐thrombotic agents

Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, Volume 19, Issue 11, Page 2835-2840, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Background Effective inhibition of thrombosis without generating bleeding risks is a major challenge in medicine. Accumulating evidence suggests that this can be achieved by inhibition of coagulation factor XII (FXII), as either its knock‐out or inhibition in animal models efficiently reduced thrombosis without affecting normal hemostasis ...
