Telomere conversion in trypanosomes
Nucleic Acids Research, 1983 Activation of the gene coding for variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) 118 in Trypanosoma brucei proceeds via a duplicative transposition to a telomeric expression site. The resulting active expression-linked extra copy (ELC) is usually flanked by DNA that lacks sites for most restriction enzymes and that is thought to interfere with the cloning of the ...

The Constructive Neutral Evolution of Behaviour
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.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 ...

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 6, June 2025.The nutritional properties of C. esculenta have been demonstrated. Consumption of C. esculenta reduces anemic disorder in Wistar rats. C. esclenta harvested in Dschang has the best anti‐anemic potential. ABSTRACT This study aimed to assess the nutritional value and effect of Colocasia esculenta flowers on induced anemia in Wistar rats.

Effectiveness of a 10-day melarsoprol schedule for the treatment of late-stage human African trypanosomiasis: confirmation from a multinational study (IMPAMEL II). [PDF]
, 2005 BACKGROUND: Treatment of late-stage human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) with melarsoprol can be improved by shortening the regimen. A previous trial demonstrated the safety and efficacy of a 10-day treatment schedule.

Biology of the Cell, Volume 117, Issue 6, June 2025.Protrusion‐derived extracellular vesicles (PD‐EVs) driving tumor progression and immune modulation. PD‐EVs arise from dynamic cellular extensions and serve as powerful communication tools. In cancer, they reshape the tumor microenvironment, promote angiogenesis and metastasis, and modulate immune responses, including T cell activation.

A multigene family encoding surface glycoproteins in Trypanosoma congolense
Microbial Cell, 2017 Trypanosoma congolense, the causative agent of the most important livestock disease in Africa, expresses specific surface proteins involved in its parasitic lifestyle. Unfortunately, the complete repertoire of such molecules is far from being deciphered.

Delineating neuroinflammation, parasite CNS invasion, and blood-brain barrier dysfunction in an experimental murine model of human African trypanosomiasis [PDF]
, 2017 Although Trypanosoma brucei spp. was first detected by Aldo Castellani in CSF samples taken from sleeping sickness patients over a century ago there is still a great deal of debate surrounding the timing, route and effects of transmigration of the ...

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 55, Issue 5, May 2025.Although VSIG4+ LPMs and VSIG4− LPMs are identical at the transcriptomic and surface proteomic level, VSIG4+ LPMs are superior phagocytes that protect against CRC peritoneal outgrowth and influence the early phase of T. brucei brucei infection. ABSTRACT Large peritoneal macrophages (LPMs) play a role as gatekeepers of peritoneal homeostasis by ...
