PAG3 promotes the differentiation of bloodstream forms in Trypanosoma brucei and reveals the evolutionary relationship among the Trypanozoon trypanosomes (2022)
Journal Article

Introduction: Trypanosoma brucei, T. evansi and T. equiperdum are members of the subgenus Trypanozoon and are highly similar morphologically and genetically. The main differences between these three species are their differentiation patterns in the h... Read More about PAG3 promotes the differentiation of bloodstream forms in Trypanosoma brucei and reveals the evolutionary relationship among the Trypanozoon trypanosomes.

Prevalence of Eimeria species, detected by ITS1-PCR, in broiler poultry farms located in seven provinces of northeastern Algeria. (2022)
Journal Article

Coccidiosis is an important global chickens' disease which can cause serious economic losses in the poultry industry worldwide. Little is known about the extent of infection or diversity, of the causative agent Eimeria spp., in Algeria. A priority, t...

Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) can be experimentally infected with both marine and freshwater fish trypanosomes. (2022)
Journal Article

Trypanosomes are haemoflagellates found in vertebrate species and many of them can cause death in infected hosts including fish and humans. With the development of high-density farming in marine and freshwater fish aquaculture systems, severe disease...

iNOS is essential to maintain a protective Th1/Th2 response and the production of cytokines/chemokines against Schistosoma japonicum infection in rats (2022)
Journal Article

Humans and a wide range of mammals are generally susceptible to Schistosoma infection, while some rodents such as Rattus rats and Microtus spp are not. We previously demonstrated that inherent high expression levels of nitric oxide (NO), produced by... Read More about iNOS is essential to maintain a protective Th1/Th2 response and the production of cytokines/chemokines against Schistosoma japonicum infection in rats.

Transplantation of Gut Microbiota From High-Fat-Diet-Tolerant Cynomolgus Monkeys Alleviates Hyperlipidemia and Hepatic Steatosis in Rats. (2022)
Journal Article

Emerging evidence has been reported to support the involvement of the gut microbiota in the host's blood lipid and hyperlipidemia (HLP). However, there remains unexplained variation in the host's blood lipid phenotype. Herein a nonhuman primate HLP m...

Species identification and phylogenetic analysis of Leishmania isolated from patients, vectors and hares in the Xinjiang Autonomous Region, The People's Republic of China (2021)
Journal Article

Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) has been declared as one of the six major tropical diseases by the World Health Organization. This disease has been successfully controlled in China, except for some areas in the western region, such as the Xinjiang Autono...

A new species of mammalian trypanosome, Trypanosoma (Megatrypanum) bubalisi sp. nov., found in the freshwater leech Hirudinaria manillensis (2021)
Journal Article

Leeches have long been considered potential vectors for the aquatic lineage of trypanosomes, while bloodsucking insects are generally considered as the vectors for the terrestrial lineage of trypanosomes. The freshwater leech, Hirudinaria manillensis... Read More about A new species of mammalian trypanosome, Trypanosoma (Megatrypanum) bubalisi sp. nov., found in the freshwater leech Hirudinaria manillensis.

Identification of an orally active carbazole aminoalcohol derivative with broad-spectrum anti-animal trypanosomiasis activity (2021)
Journal Article

Animal trypanosomiasis, caused by the members of subgenus Trypanozoon (Trypanosoma brucei brucei, T. evansi and T. equiperdum), has reduced animal productivity leading to significant negative economic impacts in endemic regions. Due to limited drug d... Read More about Identification of an orally active carbazole aminoalcohol derivative with broad-spectrum anti-animal trypanosomiasis activity.

An investigation into Toxoplasma gondii infection and the expression of Arginase-1 and iNOS in human lung tissue (2021)
Thesis

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between Toxoplasma gondii infection and the expression of the immune modulating proteins Arginase-1 and iNOS in human lung biopsy samples. Previously, a 100% toxoplasmosis infection rate was found in 7... Read More about An investigation into Toxoplasma gondii infection and the expression of Arginase-1 and iNOS in human lung tissue.

The influence of virtual reality head-mounted displays on balance outcomes and training paradigms: A systematic review (2021)
Journal Article

Background: Falls are the leading causes of (non)fatal injuries in older adults. Recent research has developed interventions that aim to improve balance in older adults using virtual reality (VR).

Purpose: We aimed to investigate the validity, rel... Read More about The influence of virtual reality head-mounted displays on balance outcomes and training paradigms: A systematic review.
