Nanoparticle tracking analysis of natural hemozoin from Plasmodium parasites
CONCLUSIONS: This study highlights the potential of NTA as a useful method for analyzing hemozoin, demonstrating its ability to provide detailed information on hemozoin characterization. However, further research is needed to adapt the NTA for hemozoin analysis.PMID:38135133 | DOI:10.1016/j.actatropica.2023.107105 (Source: Acta Tropica)

Outline-based geometric morphometrics: Wing cell differences for mosquito vector classification in the Tanaosri mountain range, Thailand
Acta Trop. 2023 Dec 14;250:107093. doi: 10.1016/j.actatropica.2023.107093. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRecent studies have revealed taxonomic signals within the wing cells of certain mosquito species. In our study, wing cell differentiation among mosquito vectors from the Tanaosri mountain range in Thailand was evaluated using the outline-based geometric morphometric (GM) approach. Our focus was on four specific wing cells for GM analysis: the wing contour (external cell), the second submarginal cell (internal cell 1), the first posterior cell (internal cell 2), and the third posterior cell (internal cell 3). Before proc...

Echinococcus granulosus cyst fluid inhibits the type I interferon response by promoting ROS in macrophages
Acta Trop. 2023 Dec 13:107101. doi: 10.1016/j.actatropica.2023.107101. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn cystic echinococcosis (CE), Echinococcus granulosus cystic fluid (EgCF) could impede macrophage-mediated immunity. However, whether EgCF is implicated in the type I interferon response remains to be established. Here, we revealed that EgCF reduced 2'3'-cGAMP-induced IFN-β production in macrophages by inhibiting the cGAS-STING-IRF3 signaling. EgCF also increased the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Administration of the ROS inhibitor N-acetylcysteine (NAC) restored the cGAS-STING-IRF3 signaling, which,...

TOXINOLOGICAL PROFILE AND HISTOPATHOLOGICAL ALTERATIONS INDUCED BY Bothrocophias campbelli VENOM FROM COLOMBIA
Acta Trop. 2023 Dec 13:107094. doi: 10.1016/j.actatropica.2023.107094. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSnakebite envenomings most frequently reported in Colombia are caused by snakes of the genera Bothrops, Bothriechis, Bothrocophias, and Porthidium. Their venoms induce local and systemic pathophysiological effects, sometimes leading to permanent sequelae such as reduced mobility of the limbs, amputations, besides the risk of death. The genus Bothrocophias includes nine species, among which B. campbelli has a distribution restricted to the department of Nariño in Colombia. In this work we determined the toxinological profil...
