Codon choice directs constitutive mRNA levels in trypanosomes
Selective transcription of individual protein coding genes does not occur in trypanosomes and the cellular copy number of each mRNA must be determined post-transcriptionally.

A series of 5‐nitroimidazole‐1,2,3‐triazole hybrids was synthesised and evaluated for antitrypanosomatid activity to assess their potential as treatments against leishmaniasis and trypanosomiasis. No notable in vitro activity against Leishmania was detected.

Temperature Alters Specificity in a Host–Parasite Interaction
The Red Queen Hypothesis predicts that host–parasite coevolution maintains genetic variation through strong genetic specificity, but this specificity may be sensitive to environmental conditions. Using Meloidogyne arenaria and its parasite Pasteuria penetrans, we tested host–parasite interactions across three temperatures and found specificity at two ...

Environmental Drivers on Blue Tit Nest Microbiome: An Experimental Study
Elevated humidity and temperature altered nest microbial composition and its associations with parasitism and nestling condition. These findings identify nest microclimate as an important driver of nest microbiomes with consequences for avian development.

A compendium of extracellular vesicle biogenesis inhibitors: From bench to bedside
This review explores a decade of research on extracellular vesicles (EVs), detailing their biogenesis and roles in health and disease. It emphasizes EVs' relevance for potential medical applications covering various conditions such as cancer, neurodegeneration, inflammation, and infectious diseases, bridging experimental findings with clinical ...

In social insect colonies, diseased or dead brood is identified and removed by workers to prevent the infection of the whole colony. Here, bumble bee larvae exposed to a bacterium (Bacillus thuringiensis ssp. aizawai (strain: ABTS‐1857)) based biopesticide were removed more frequently than wounded or untreated control larvae. This shows that bumble bee
