Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Trypanosoma (Euglenozoa: Kinetoplastea) infections in rodents, bats, and shrews along an elevation and disturbance gradient in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia

Records of the Australian Museum, 2023
Surveillance of wildlife pathogens is critically important to the conservation of species and human health. However, few species of wildlife in biodiverse countries like Indonesia, especially endemic species in intact ecosystems, have been screened for ...

Comparative evaluation of the attractiveness of new polyethylene screens versus West African tiny target for the control of tsetse flies

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The material has no significant difference in captures (non‐shiny cotton‐polyester screens vs. the shiny polyethylene screens), but the vertical screen attracted significantly more G. tachinoides for each type of material. Full white horizontal screen was significantly lower than the reference WATT.

Stage-Specific COPII-Mediated Cargo Selectivity in African Trypanosomes

mSphere, 2022
A hallmark of eukaryotic cells is the ability to form a secretory pathway connecting many intracellular compartments. In the early secretory pathway, coated protein complex II (COPII)-coated vesicles mediate the anterograde transport of newly synthesized

Paenidigyamycin A, Potent Antiparasitic Imidazole Alkaloid from the Ghanaian Paenibacillus sp. DE2SH

Marine Drugs, 2018
A new alkaloid paenidigyamycin A (1) was obtained from the novel Ghanaian Paenibacillus sp. isolated from the mangrove rhizosphere soils of the Pterocarpus santalinoides tree growing in the wetlands of the Digya National Park, Ghana.

Synthesis, Electrochemistry, In Vitro Antiprotozoal Efficacy and Mechanistic Study of Novel ‘Ferrantoin’ and Related Derivatives

Applied Organometallic Chemistry, Volume 40, Issue 7, July 2026.
1,2‐Disubstituted ferrocene analogues bearing hydantoin or rhodanine synthons were synthesised and assessed for antitrypanosomatid activity. An antileishmanial early lead, analogue 23, acting through ROS generation and hence oxidative stress, was uncovered.

Elongator protein 3b negatively regulates ribosomal DNA transcription in african trypanosomes. [PDF]

, 2011
Eukaryotic cells limit ribosomal DNA (rDNA) transcription by RNA polymerase I (RNAP-I) to maintain genome integrity. African trypanosomes present an excellent model for studies on RNAP-I regulation because they possess a bifunctional RNAP-I and because ...

Mutualist-Provisioned Resources Impact Vector Competency

mBio, 2019
Many symbionts supplement their host’s diet with essential nutrients. However, whether these nutrients also enhance parasitism is unknown. In this study, we investigated whether folate (vitamin B9) production by the tsetse fly (Glossina spp.) essential ...
