Infection with Trypanosoma lewisi or Trypanosoma musculi may promote the spread of Toxoplasma gondii. [PDF]
Parasitology, 2021 Toxoplasma gondii can infect almost all warm-blooded vertebrates with pathogensis being largely influenced by the host immune status. As important epidemiological hosts, rodents are globally distributed and are also commonly found infected with ...

Modulation of the Immune Response by Nematode Secreted Acetylcholinesterase Revealed by Heterologous Expression in Trypanosoma musculi. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2016 Nematode parasites secrete molecules which regulate the mammalian immune system, but their genetic intractability is a major impediment to identifying and characterising the biological effects of these molecules.

Unclear host taxonomy hinders parasite studies: An up-to-date checklist of the protozoan and metazoan parasites of Phoxinus minnows (Teleostei: Leuciscidae). [PDF]
J Fish BiolAbstract Phoxinus minnows are small freshwater fish found throughout Eurasia. The taxonomy of this genus is still under investigation, and new species are regularly described. They are frequently introduced outside their native range due to their use as live bait for angling, and such fish introductions can have diverse impacts on the recipient areas ...

Shifting focus from resistance to disease tolerance: A review on hybrid house mice
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 5, May 2022., 2022 Our review shows evidence for hybrid vigor against in the house mouse hybrid zone. This vigor manifests in elevated resistance. We discuss that resistance is not necessarily a linked with fitness and argue that this research should switch its focus to tolerance.
