In Vitro Leishmanicidal Efficacy of Synthesized Arylidene Analogues of Glitazone

Drug Development Research, Volume 86, Issue 5, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Diabetes is a fast‐growing health issue in low‐ and middle‐income countries, with ~80% of diabetics living in the tropics and sub‐tropics. It is a deadly condition claiming the lives of millions of individuals annually, with no therapeutic treatment available to date. The management of diabetes is thus limited to symptomatic relief by glycemic

The salivary gland transcriptome of Varroa destructor reveals suitable targets for RNAi‐based mite control

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 34, Issue 4, Page 540-551, August 2025.
RNAseq and differential expression analysis identified 15 salivary gland genes encoding secreted proteins with putative anti‐bacterial, anti‐fungal, cytolytic, digestive and immunosuppressive function. The three most highly transcribed genes were selected to study their functional importance by reverse genetics, using a non‐invasive approach of dsRNA ...

Pregnancy, Volume 1, Issue 4, July 2025.
Abstract Introduction Over 300,000 people living in the United States are estimated to have Chagas disease, a condition for which mother to child transmission may occur and early diagnosis is essential to reduce Chagas‐related morbidity and mortality. This study evaluated positive Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi) screening serology among maternal donors of
