Mammalian TatD DNase domain containing 1 (TATDN1) is a proteostasis‐responsive gene with roles in ventricular structure and neuromuscular function

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Twin‐arginine translocation D (TatD) homologs are found across all kingdoms, with debated roles in DNA degradation and protein quality control in unicellular organisms. We characterize TATDN1, the mammalian TatD orthologue, as a proteostatic stress‐responsive cytosolic protein dispensable for DNA degradation.

Réponse du poulet nigérian local ( Gallus domesticus) aux trypanosomes

Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1988
La réponse du poulet nigérian local aux souches de Trypanosoma brucei 8/18 et T. vivax Y58 a été recherchée. Le poulet local utilisé dans cette étude était sensible à T. brucei mais réfractaire à T. vivax (Y58) (une souche adaptée aux rongeurs).

Editosome Accessory Factors KREPB9 and KREPB10 in Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]

, 2012
Multiprotein complexes, called editosomes, catalyze the uridine insertion and deletion RNA editing that forms translatable mitochondrial mRNAs in kinetoplastid parasites.

Artificial intelligence‐powered microscopy: Transforming the landscape of parasitology

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Microscopy and image analysis play a vital role in parasitology research; they are critical for identifying parasitic organisms and elucidating their complex life cycles. Despite major advancements in imaging and analysis, several challenges remain. These include the integration of interdisciplinary data; information derived from various model

Identification of Trypanosoma brucei gambiense in naturally infected dogs in Nigeria

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Background Animal trypanosomosis is endemic in Nigeria, while the human disease caused by Trypanosoma brucei gambiense is rarely reported nowadays after efforts to bring it under control in the 20th century.

Ultrastructural expansion microscopy reveals unexpected levels of glycosome heterogeneity in African trypanosomes

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Kinetoplastid parasites include several species. Trypanosoma brucei causes African sleeping sickness in humans and a wasting disease nagana in livestock. Trypanosoma cruzi is the causative agent of Chagas disease and Leishmania species cause leishmaniasis, which can present with visceral, cutaneous, or mucocutaneous symptoms.

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

C-terminal mutants of apolipoprotein L-I efficiently kill both Trypanosoma brucei brucei and Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2009
Apolipoprotein L-I (apoL1) is a human-specific serum protein that kills Trypanosoma brucei through ionic pore formation in endosomal membranes of the parasite. The T.

Two Centrins and Their Posttranslational Modification Modulate the Cell Cycle of Giardia lamblia

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 4, August 2025.
Two Giardia lamblia centrins (Glcents) play a role in cell cycle progression and morphogenesis of Giardia. Both Glcents are substrates of GlSUMO, suggesting a role of SUMOylation in their proper localization. SUMOylation is also involved in regulating vacuole formation in Giardia.
