Typification and some qualitative characteristics of populations of the fish helminths are given which allow to explain some peculiarities of their numbers, genetical interrelations, action of immunological factor. Simplification of the structure of helminth populations provokes large fluctuations of the helminths number. Differences in the structure of helminth populations are to be considered as one of mechanisms of development of stability of parasitic system.

Collagen, a major component of the extracellular matrix, is crucial for the structural integrity of the Caenorhabditis elegans cuticle. While several proteins involved in collagen biosynthesis have been identified, the complete regulatory network remains unclear. This study investigates the role of CALU-1, an ER-resident calcium-binding protein, in cuticle collagen formation and maintenance.

Canids act as a crucial intermediary in the transmission of rabies and , serving as co-infection hosts and pathogen carriers for both rabies and hydatid disease (HD) transmitted from animals to humans. Therefore, an effective and efficient bivalent oral vaccine for preventing HD and rabies is urgently required to reduce economic losses in husbandry resulting from rabies and HD. In this study, a full-length plasmid (pcDNA4-NPM+G+EgM123+eGFP+L) carrying the gene and fluorescence reporter genes of eGFP and four auxiliary transfection plasmids of rabies virus SRV (pcDNA4-N, pcDNA4-P, pcDNA4-G, pcDNA-L) were established by reverse genetics approaches and co-transfected to BSR cells by electrotransfection.

Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease and the second most common parasitic disease after malaria. While praziquantel remains the primary treatment, concerns about drug resistance highlight the urgent need for new drugs and effective vaccines to achieve sustainable control. Previous proteomic studies from our group revealed that the expression of glycosyltransferase and nicastrin as proteins was higher in single-sex males than mated males, suggesting their critical roles in parasite reproduction and their potential as vaccine candidates.

Substituting peat moss with compost derived from organic waste in plant nurseries presents a promising solution for reducing environmental impact, improving waste management, and enhancing soil health while promoting sustainable agricultural practices. However, selecting the appropriate proportions of both materials is crucial for each plant species. This study investigates the effects of different ratios of compost and peat mixtures on the growth and development of pepper seedlings.

Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are promising pharmacological targets for developing antiparasitic agents against helminths, as they play a key role in detoxifying cytotoxic xenobiotics and managing oxidative stress. Inhibiting GST activity can compromise parasite viability. This study reports the successful identification of two selective inhibitors for the mu-class glutathione S-transferase of 25 kDa (Ts25GST) from , named and , using a computationally guided approach.
