Peptides as a Therapeutic Alternative Against Leishmaniasis: A Scoping Review

Chemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.
This scoping review of 79 studies identified 231 antimicrobial peptides with anti‐Leishmania activity, including natural‐derived and synthetic peptides (inspired by natural sources or developed through rational design). Most were evaluated in vitro against promastigote and/or amastigote forms, with synthetic peptides showing a more promising effect ...

Structure and Biosynthesis of Xenoamicins from Entomopathogenic Xenorhabdus [PDF]

Chemistry – A European Journal, 2013
AbstractDuring the search for novel natural products from entomopathogenic Xenorhabdus doucetiae DSM17909 and X. mauleonii DSM17908 novel peptides named xenoamicins were identified in addition to the already known antibiotics xenocoumacin and xenorhabdin. Xenoamicins are acylated tridecadepsipeptides consisting of mainly hydrophobic amino acids.

How effective are entomopathogenic nematodes for vine weevil (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) biological control? A meta‐analysis

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 3427-3438, April 2026.
Entomopathogenic nematodes provide reliable biological control of vine weevil larvae, reducing populations by 63% on average. All five tested species are effective, with temperature (18–30 °C) being the strongest predictor of success. Abstract BACKGROUND Vine weevil (Otiorhynchus sulcatus) is a globally important pest of soft fruit and ornamental crops

New insight into diversity in the genus Xenorhabdus, including the description of ten novel species

, 2006
Correspondance: tailliez@univ-montp2.frInternational audienceWe investigated the diversity of a collection of 76 Xenorhabdus strains, isolated from at least 27 species of Steinernema nematodes and collected in 32 countries, using three complementary ...

The insect pathogenic bacterium Xenorhabdus innexi has attenuated virulence in multiple insect model hosts yet encodes a potent mosquitocidal toxin

BMC Genomics, 2017
Background Xenorhabdus innexi is a bacterial symbiont of Steinernema scapterisci nematodes, which is a cricket-specialist parasite and together the nematode and bacteria infect and kill crickets. Curiously, X.

Entomopathogenic nematode-associated microbiota: from monoxenic paradigm to pathobiome

Microbiome, 2020
Background The holistic view of bacterial symbiosis, incorporating both host and microbial environment, constitutes a major conceptual shift in studies deciphering host-microbe interactions. Interactions between Steinernema entomopathogenic nematodes and

Low Abundance Taxa Show Diverse Microbial Symbiotic Interactions With the Freshwater Sponge, Radiospongilla crateriformis, Pre and Post Gemmulation

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
The microbiome profile of freshwater sponges did not broadly change in taxonomy or functional profile based on metatranscriptome analysis prior to and after formation of sponge dormant bodies (gemmules). Results highlight a subset of taxa that likely associate with the sponge host in different ways from facultative to long‐term symbionts.

Immune interactions between Drosophila and the pathogen Xenorhabdus

Microbiological Research, 2020
Deciphering host innate immune function and bacterial pathogenic tactics require a system that facilitates both facets of host-pathogen interactions. In recent years, a model that becomes established in dissecting mechanisms of host antibacterial immune response through probing with a potent bacterial pathogen involves the fruit fly Drosophila ...

Isolation and identification of Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus bacteria associated with entomopathogenic nematodes and their larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti

Parasites & Vectors, 2017
Background Aedes aegypti is a potential vector of West Nile, Japanese encephalitis, chikungunya, dengue and Zika viruses. Alternative control measurements of the vector are needed to overcome the problems of environmental contamination and chemical ...
