Extracellular Vesicles of Giardia duodenalis: Unravelling Their Virulence Factors and Potential to Induce Protection Against Experimental Giardiasis

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 5, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are key mediators of intercellular communication, enabling trans‐kingdom exchange of proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and metabolites. In Giardia duodenalis, EVs contribute to parasite survival, host–pathogen interactions, and immune modulation.

MICOS and MIMAS, multifunctional assemblies linking mitochondrial biogenesis, architecture, and function

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Mitochondrial cristae architecture is central for optimal oxidative phosphorylation and a healthy mitochondrial physiology. The intricate architecture of the inner mitochondrial membrane relies on protein complexes that compartmentalize the membrane by imposing membrane curvature, forming membrane contact sites or membrane subdomains ...

Cruzain Inhibitors for Chagas Disease: Anticorrelated Optimisation Landscapes and the Multiparametric Path to Clinical Candidates

Chemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 107, Issue 6, June 2026.
Three decades of cruzain‐targeted drug discovery have yielded 215 sub‐micromolar inhibitors but no clinical candidates. This review diagnoses a systemic translational failure driven by single‐parameter optimisation and proposes a multiparametric framework integrating enzymatic potency, cathepsin selectivity, intracellular exposure, and metabolic ...

Identification of compounds with anti-proliferative activity against Trypanosoma brucei brucei strain 427 by a whole cell viability based HTS campaign.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2012
Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT) is caused by two trypanosome sub-species, Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense and Trypanosoma brucei gambiense. Drugs available for the treatment of HAT have significant issues related to difficult administration regimes ...

Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of multidrug-resistant protein-encoding genes in Trypanosoma evansi isolated from buffaloes in Ngawi district, Indonesia [PDF]

Veterinary World, 2019
Background and Aim: Excessive use of trypanocidal drugs can lead to cases of drug resistance. Multiple cases of resistance have been widely reported for drugs such as isometamidium chloride and diminazene aceturate. These cases deserve serious attention,

Synergistische Entwicklungsstrategien von Inhibitoren gegen humane UDP‐Galactose‐4‐Epimerase

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 22, 25 May 2026.
Die Epimerase GalE ist essenziell für die Biosynthese von krebsrelevanten O‐GalNAc Glykanen. Wir verwenden orthogonales, strukturbasiertes Screening niedermolekularer Fragmente an, um kovalente und nichtkovalente Inhibitoren gegen GalE mit nicht mehr als 22 optimierten Verbindungen zu erhalten.

Analysis of the proteinases of Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1990
A method comprising enzyme separation by SDS-PAGE and subsequent use of peptidyl aminomethylcoumarins as substrates has been used to study proteinases of the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei. The application of this method has allowed investigation of the substrate specificities of individual proteinases in cell lysates without the need for enzyme

A Synergistic Inhibitor Development Strategy Against Human UDP‐Galactose‐4‐Epimerase

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 65, Issue 22, 25 May 2026.
The epimerase GalE is crucial for the biosynthesis of cancer‐relevant O‐GalNAc glycans. Here, we employ orthogonal, structurally enabled small molecule fragment screens to yield both covalent and non‐covalent inhibitors against GalE within no more than 22 elaborated compounds.

Mapping the Cerebral Organoid Landscape: A Systematic Review of Preclinical 3D Models in Neuroscience

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 18, 15 May 2026.
Cerebral organoids are transforming brain research, yet the field remains fragmented. This comprehensive systematic review maps 738 studies published between 2014 and 2024 to uncover trends, gaps, and opportunities across neuroscience. Introducing OrganoidMap—an interactive, open‐access platform to explore and compare models—this work enables ...
