The discovery of Moniliformis saudi (Acanthocephala: Moniliformidae) in the Algerian hedgehog Atelerix algirus in Malta: morphological, molecular, and metal analyses
Syst Parasitol. 2024 Jan 9;101(2):12. doi: 10.1007/s11230-023-10128-x.ABSTRACTThe acanthocephalan Moniliformis saudi Amin, Heckmann, Mohammed, Evans, 2016 was originally described from the desert hedgehog, Paraechinus aethiopicus (Ehrenberg) in central Saudi Arabia. The distribution of P. aethiopicus extends to North Africa and west to Mauritania. Moniliformis saudi was recently found in the Algerian hedgehog Atelerix algirus (Lereboullet) in Malta. The distribution of A. algirus is restricted to the North African and east Iberian Mediterranean coast and associated islands. Both host species cohabit and share the same feed...

MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry identification and antifungal susceptibility testing of yeasts causing vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) in Tebessa (Northeastern Algeria)
Ann Biol Clin (Paris). 2024 Jan 1;81(6). doi: 10.1684/abc.2023.1852. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTVulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) alongside with antifungal resistance are becoming a major clinical problem in recent years. A prospective study aimed to evaluate the diversity of yeast strains associated with VVC in Tebessa city (northeastern Algeria) and investigate their susceptibility patterns. Over two months, yeasts were isolated on chromogenic medium from twenty-nine non-pregnant women with symptomatic VVC. The isolates were characterized with MALDI-TOF MS and antifungal susceptibility testing was performed for nine anti...

Comprehensive Genomic Characterization of Antibiotic Resistance, Virulence, and Clonality in Salmonella Isolates from Wild Animals in Algeria
This study investigatedSalmonella spp. in wild animals in Algeria, focusing on their prevalence, serotypes, antibiotic resistance, and virulence profiles. From fecal samples collected between May 2021 and June 2022, 1.9% showedSalmonella shedding. The identified serotypes includedS. Bredeney,S. Enteritidis,S. Altona, andS. Virchow. Except forS. Altona, all isolates were resistant to quinolones, withS. Bredeney strains, exhibiting multidrug resistance. Whole-genome sequencing revealed various resistance genes and mutations ingyrA orparC genes. Additionally, plasmids IncX1 and ColpVC were detected in several isolates. A comp...

Characterizing EBV-associated Gastric Carcinoma (EBVaGC): A deep dive into LMP1 expression patterns
In conclusion, the rate of LMP1 expression among gastric carcinomas does not seem similar to that observed in other countries. This study characterizing EBVaGC in Tizi-Ouzou, Algeria, reinforces the need for further studies to clarify the role of EBV (LMP1) and to explore its potential value as a predictive biomarker for the development of this type of cancer pathology.PMID:38158662 | DOI:10.14715/cmb/2023.69.13.33 (Source: Cellular and Molecular Biology)
