Apicomplexa are unicellular eukaryotic parasites that exhibit two types of secretory organelle at their apical pole and a membranous system that underlies their plasma membrane. Apicomplexa are ...

Researchers have genetically dissected the way Apicomplexa divides and multiplies within its host cell. This approach should be broadly applicable, allowing unbiased genetic analysis of any part of ...

Apicomplexa form one of the largest and most diverse groups of obligate intracellular parasites, capable of infecting almost every kind of animal. It is estimated that between 1.2 and 10 million ...

The word Apicomplexa may be unfamiliar to most people. But the parasites it describes are all too familiar—causing malaria, toxoplasmosis and several other diseases. These scourges are complex and ...

HYMENOLEPIS DIMINUTA INFECTIONS IN TENEBRIONID BEETLES AS A MODEL SYSTEM FOR ECOLOGICAL INTERACTIONS BETWEEN HELMINTH PARASITES AND TERRESTRIAL INTERMEDIATE HOSTS: A REVIEW AND META-ANALYSIS ...

Rising rates of infectious eye diseases are putting more people at risk of preventable vision loss, prompting researchers to call for greater awareness of the warning signs and the importance of early ...

Researchers have identified a key enzyme for the synthesis of glycoconjugates (sugars linked to other molecules) in Plasmodium falciparum and other intracellular parasites belonging to the large ...

Il phylum dell'Apicomplexa contiene oltre 5 000 parassiti diversi, che prendono il nome dal polo polarizzato delle vescicole secretorie. Durante la fase acuta dell'infezione, dopo la colonizzazione ...

Ce comité a proposé une nouvelle classification, remplaçant celle des anciens Protistes et tenant compte des phylogénies moléculaires récentes. Elle regroupe les Eucaryotes en six groupes réputés ...

Le phylum des apicomplexes contient plus de 5000 différents parasites qui prennent leur nom du pôle polarisé des vésicules de sécrétion. Pendant la phase grave de l'infection (après la colonisation de ...

Apicomplexa, nach der phylogenetischen Systematik Gruppe der Alveolata, einer monophyletischen Teilgruppe der früheren Sporozoa; die Arten besitzen in speziellen Phasen ihres Lebenszyklus am ...
