Phytochemical Diversity, Nutritional Values, and Biological Properties of Halopithys incurva (Hudson) Batters, 1902

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Halopithys incurva is a red macroalga distributed across the Mediterranean Sea and North‐East Atlantic, with occasional reports from the Indian Ocean. It exhibits a rich chemical diversity, including isoflavones, bromophenols, MAAs, pigments, phycobiliproteins, primary metabolites, and neuroactive compounds.

Implications of heterogeneous biting exposure and animal hosts on Trypanosomiasis brucei gambiense transmission and control [PDF]

, 2015
The gambiense form of sleeping sickness is a neglected tropical disease, which is presumed to be anthroponotic. However, the parasite persists in human populations at levels of considerable rarity and as such the existence of animal reservoirs has been ...

Genetic Diversity in the Diminazene Resistance-Associated P2 Adenosine Transporter-1 (AT-1) Gene of Trypanosoma evansi

Animals
Trypanosomes are parasitic protozoa that cause severe diseases in humans and animals. The most important species of Trypanosmes include Trypanosoma evansi and Trypanosoma brucei gambiense.

Allelic segregation and independent assortment in T. brucei crosses: proof that the genetic system is Mendelian and involves meiosis [PDF]

, 2005
The genetic system on Trypanosoma brucei has been analysed by generating large numbers of independent progeny clones from two crosses, one between two cloned isolates of Trypanosoma brucei brucei and one between cloned isolates of T. b.

Apolipoprotein L1 Variant Associated with Increased Susceptibility to Trypanosome Infection

mBio, 2016
African trypanosomes, except Trypanosoma brucei gambiense and Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, which cause human African trypanosomiasis, are lysed by the human serum protein apolipoprotein L1 (ApoL1).

Diagnostic accuracy of loopamp Trypanosoma brucei detection kit for diagnosis of human African trypanosomiasis in clinical samples. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2013
BACKGROUND: Molecular methods have great potential for sensitive parasite detection in the diagnosis of human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), but the requirements in terms of laboratory infrastructure limit their use to reference centres.

Stunning Intricacies of RNA Editing Complexes RECC, RESC, and REH2C: Functional Organization, Developmental Regulation, and Evolutionary History in Kinetoplastid Protists

WIREs RNA, Volume 17, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
U‐indel RNA editing targets mRNA:gRNA duplexes through three key complexes that collectively govern assembly, specificity, catalysis, and developmental regulation. Modern tools, including artificial intelligence, analyze the organization, dynamics, and evolution of the remarkable holo‐editosome, opening new avenues in RNA biology and therapy.

In-hospital safety in field conditions of Nifurtimox Eflornithine Combination Therapy (NECT) for T. B. Gambiense Sleeping Sickness

, 2012
Trypanosoma brucei (T.b.) gambiense Human African trypanosomiasis (HAT; sleeping sickness) is a fatal disease. Until 2009, available treatments for 2(nd) stage HAT were complicated to use, expensive (eflornithine monotherapy), or toxic, and ...
