Chromosome-level Dinobdella ferox genome provided a molecular model for its specific parasitism
CONCLUSIONS: Our study represents the first-ever attempt to propose a molecular model for specific parasitism. This molecular model may serve as a practical reference for parasitism models of other species and a theoretical foundation for a molecular process of parasitism.PMID:37697397 | PMC:PMC10494388 | DOI:10.1186/s13071-023-05837-7

microRNA silencing in a whole worm cestode model provides insight into miR-71 function
This study provides new knowledge on gene expression regulation in cestodes and suggests that miRNAs could be evaluated as new selective therapeutic targets for treating Neglected Tropical Diseases prioritised by the World Health Organization.PMID:37699506 | DOI:10.1016/j.ijpara.2023.08.002

Anguillid eels
Curr Biol. 2023 Sep 11;33(17):R888-R893. doi: 10.1016/j.cub.2023.07.044.ABSTRACTAnguillid eels have fascinated humans for centuries, but our knowledge of these mysterious fish is still scant. There are 19 species or subspecies in the genus Anguilla, which are found globally, except in the eastern Pacific and southern Atlantic. Their common label 'freshwater eels' is a misnomer - all anguillids are facultatively catadromous, born in marine environments, developing in continental waters, with a proportion never entering freshwater at all. Anguillid eels have several life history traits that have allowed them to exploit a bro...

Head louse paleoepidemiology in the osmore river valley, southern peru
J Parasitol. 2023 Oct 1;109(5):450-463. doi: 10.1645/23-4.ABSTRACTRecent studies of louse ectoparasites from mummies have developed robust data sets that allow a true epidemiological approach to the prehistory of louse parasitism. One epidemiological principle is that the binomial of overdispersion is normally negative, meaning that in a host population, parasites are aggregated in a few individuals. We demonstrate the overdispersion of lice in 3 different prehistoric communities that differ along 3 axes or variables: environmental setting, socioeconomic status, and cultural affiliation. Distinct cultural practices could h...

Design, synthesis and antiplasmodial evaluation of new amide-, carbamate-, and ureido-type harmicines
Bioorg Med Chem. 2023 Sep 7;94:117468. doi: 10.1016/j.bmc.2023.117468. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMalaria, one of the oldest parasitic diseases, remains a global health threat, and the increasing resistance of the malaria parasite to current antimalarials is forcing the discovery of new, effective drugs. Harmicines, hybrid compounds in which harmine/β-carboline alkaloids and cinnamic acid derivatives are linked via an amide bond or a triazole ring, represent new antiplasmodial agents. In this work, we used a multiple linear regression technique to build a linear quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) model...

Multiple Hydatid Cysts in Rare Locations Treated with Albendazole: A Case Report
We report the case of a 33-year-old man admitted because of chest pain. Echocardiography had shown suspected round cyst in the myocardium. More diagnostic managements had demonstrated cystic lesion in the liver, spleen and lungs. There were also multiple cystic lesions in both lungs. He refused surgery and was taken to medical therapy. Myocardial involvement by hydatid cysts occurs very rarely. The main treatment approach for cardiac hydatid disease in patients should be surgery. The alternative treatment was done to those who refused surgical removal, adjuvant therapy such as albendazole for at least 1-6 months. Because m...
