Preimaginal development of Aedes aegypti in brackish water produces adult mosquitoes with thicker cuticles and greater insecticide resistance

This study shows that Aedes aegypti mosquitoes developing in brackish water have thicker cuticles and higher insecticide resistance compared to those developing in fresh water.

Establishment and application of unbiased in vitro drug screening assays for the identification of compounds against Echinococcus granulosus s.s.

The paper establishes in vitro culture and drug screening assays for E. granulosus s.s., showing that MMV665807, niclosamide, and nitazoxanide are effective against both E. multilocularis and E. granulosus s.s.

Comparative assessment of the effects of bumped kinase inhibitors on early zebrafish embryo development and pregnancy in mice.

This study evaluates the effects of 15 bumped kinase inhibitors on zebrafish embryo development and mouse pregnancy, finding limited predictive value of zebrafish tests for pregnancy outcomes.

Depletion of cardiolipin induces major changes in energy metabolism in Trypanosoma brucei bloodstream forms

This study shows that depletion of cardiolipin in Trypanosoma brucei bloodstream forms disrupts mitochondrial function and energy metabolism, leading to reduced ATP levels and altered metabolic pathways.

Regulation of Hepatic MicroRNAs in Response to Early Stage Echinococcus multilocularis Egg Infection in C57BL/6 mice

This study identifies 28 dysregulated hepatic miRNAs in C57BL/6 mice infected with Echinococcus multilocularis eggs, showing downregulation of miRNAs involved in angiogenesis and fatty acid biosynthesis.
