Integrated control of vector-borne diseases of livestock--pyrethroids: panacea or poison?
Tick- and tsetse-borne diseases cost Africa approximately US$4-5 billion per year in livestock production-associated losses. The use of pyrethroid-treated cattle to control ticks and tsetse promises to be an increasingly important tool to counter this ...

Evidence for an interplay between cell cycle progression and the initiation of differentiation between life cycle forms of African trypanosomes [PDF]
Successful transmission of the African trypanosome between the mammalian host blood-stream and the tsetse fly vector involves dramatic alterations in the parasite's morphology and biochemistry.

Structural and functional analysis of Lactaseibacillus rhamnosus ODC highlights a key residue influencing PLP binding, enzymatic activity, and crystal structure, providing insight into its catalytic mechanism. Abstract Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) is a critical enzyme in the polyamine biosynthesis pathway that catalyzes the conversion of l‐ornithine ...

Trypanosoma Infection Favors Brucella Elimination via IL-12/IFNγ-Dependent Pathways
This study develops an original co-infection model in mice using Brucella melitensis, the most frequent cause of human brucellosis, and Trypanosoma brucei, the agent of African trypanosomiasis. Although the immunosuppressive effects of T.

The Constructive Neutral Evolution of Behaviour
We explain how constructive neutral evolution (CNE) can lead to the evolution of nonfunctional behavioural complexity, highlighting a mechanism that is unknown to behavioural ecologists despite being frequently considered by molecular biologists. We summarise indirect evidence that suggests behavioural CNE has occurred and outline how the hypothesis ...

Abstract In eukaryotes, cellular respiration takes place in the cristae of mitochondria. The mitochondrial inner membrane protein Mic60, a core component of the mitochondrial contact site and cristae organizing system, is crucial for the organization and stabilization of crista junctions and its associated functions.

Résistance médicamenteuse d'isolats récents de Trypanosoma brucei et Trypanosoma congolense
Des études ont été menées sur des souris pour déterminer la sensibilité aux médicaments d’isolats récents de Trypanosoma brucei et Trypanosoma congolense. Chacune des onze souches de T. congolense et des cinq souches de T. brucei, toutes isolées sur des

The effect of combined administration of 1000 i.u/100g body weight (bd.wt.) vitamin A and 100 mg/kg bd wt. vitamin C to Trypanosoma brucei brucei-infected rats daily for twenty-one days was investigated. The anaemia caused by T.

Trypanosoma brucei brucei incorporates D-[3H]mannose into protein in vitro in a medium we describe here. The label appears entirely in glycoproteins with approximately 90% in the major variable surface coat glycoprotein (VSCG).

Aminoisothiazolamides, a new class of potent inhibitors of lysyl‐tRNA synthetase
The present work covers a series of novel herbicidal lead structures that possess an aminoisothiazolamide scaffold as a structural key feature. Lysyl‐tRNA synthetase 1 (KRS1) was identified as the biochemical mode‐of‐action. Based on optimized and tailored synthetic approaches, a broader SAR study was carried out delivering some lead structures that ...
