1. Ancylotensins: a new category of hookworm excretory-secretory proteins.
PMID:日期:2026-09-29Hookworms can parasitize humans for years because they export excretory-secretory proteins (ESPs) into their hosts. Four known categories of ESPs are antithrombotics, digestive enzymes, detoxifying enzymes, and immunomodulators. Koch et al. recently discovered ancylotensins, a new category of ESPs that mimic the mammalian gut hormone neurotensin.

3. Digital parasitology for small ruminant nematodes.
3. 用于小型反刍动物线虫的数字寄生虫学PMID:日期:2026-09-29Gastrointestinal nematodes, especially Haemonchus contortus, threaten small ruminant health, welfare, and productivity through anemia, production losses, and anthelmintic resistance. This opinion article presents digital parasitology as a framework to strengthen targeted selective treatment and integrated parasite management. We synthesize advances in AI-based FAMACHA scoring, smartphone hematocrit imaging, bioelectrical impedance analysis, radiofrequency sensing, radiofrequency identification-supported behavior monitoring, WebGIS decision support, and nutraceutical forage planning. These tools should not replace classical parasitology or veterinary judgment, but they can improve consistency, scalability, and farm-level decision-making. Key challenges include validation, affordability, explainability, model drift, device standardization, bias, veterinary oversight, and adoption. Digital tools could shift parasite control from blanket and/or reactive deworming to predictive, AI-guided prevention.

4. Sailing to a deeper understanding of malaria parasite invasion.
4. 对疟原虫入侵有更深入的了解PMID:日期:2026-09-23In a recent article by Haile et al., the atomic-level structure of the protein complex responsible for the invasion of the malaria parasite into red blood cells is described. Here, the key findings and the implications for the development of next-generation antimalarials are reviewed.

5. No single magic bullet: the case for combined interventions for global malaria elimination and eradication.
PMID:日期:2026-09-17The past 6 decades have witnessed steady progress in malaria control, resulting in marked reductions in disease burden across many endemic regions. However, the pace of malaria elimination has remained slow, hindered by numerous biological, clinical, and epidemiological challenges. Innovative integrated approaches are required for a sustainable response to this persistent global health threat. Because malaria transmission and parasite biology are complex, combining antimalarial drugs, vector control measures, and vaccines offers the best chance of achieving long-term malaria elimination. This review examines emerging malaria control and elimination tools, including next-generation insecticides, novel antimalarial drug classes, and mRNA-based vaccines. We discuss how they can be strategically integrated to enhance intervention effectiveness, interrupt transmission, and accelerate progress toward malaria elimination and eradication.

7. What's in a name? Discovering Leishmania.
7. 名字有什么意义?发现利什曼原虫PMID:日期:2026-09-032 June 2026 marked the centenary of the death of Sir William Boog Leishman, the Scottish physician after whom Leishmania was named. However, he was not the first to describe the parasite. In this article, we recount this discovery and explain the etymological conventions that ensured Leishman's name was preserved in scientific history.

8. New insights on Plasmodium gene expression from direct RNA sequencing.
PMID:日期:2026-09-03Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT) direct RNA sequencing enables the sequencing of native RNA molecules without cDNA conversion. The long-read approach captures full-length reads spanning entire genes and has transformed the study of gene expression in Plasmodium parasites by enabling analysis of untranslated regions, isoforms, and alternative splicing. In addition, ONT provides unique insights into non-coding RNAs, RNA modifications, and polyadenylated tail dynamics, which are expanding our understanding of post-transcriptional regulation in Plasmodium, including processes beyond translational repression in gametocytes and sporozoites. Here, we discuss the past and future applications of direct RNA sequencing in Plasmodium research and highlight its advantages, limitations, and future prospects.

9. Equitable access to monoclonal antibodies targeting parasites.
9. 公平获得针对寄生虫的单克隆抗体PMID:日期:2026-09-01Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have reshaped prevention and treatment of infectious diseases. However, the development of mAbs against parasitic diseases that disproportionately impact populations in resource-limited settings has received lower priority. Recent trials in Africa show that long-acting mAbs can prevent Plasmodium falciparum infection in children and adults. Early studies suggest that mAb pharmacokinetics differ between malaria-endemic and nonendemic populations, with age and prior parasite exposure possibly affecting the minimum amount of mAb required for durable protection. We present evidence that antiparasitic mAb studies should account for fragment crystallizable receptor polymorphisms and host factors commonly found in endemic populations. We discuss economic and manufacturing barriers to accessing mAbs in resource-limited settings, which have implications for the future use of these promising interventions.

10. More than just a phase: the essential role of condensates in Trypanosoma brucei survival.
10. 不仅仅是阶段:凝聚体在布氏锥虫生存中的关键作用PMID:日期:2026-08-31The study of biomolecular condensates and other membraneless organelles has shifted the paradigm of cellular organisation, yet their role in parasitic biology remains an emerging field. While model eukaryotes provide the blueprint for phase separation and spatial compartmentalisation, kinetoplastid parasites offer a unique lens through which to explore the functional limits of these 'regulatory hubs'. In this opinion article, we argue that their unconventional biology renders them valuable models for understanding spatial regulation of gene expression. While Trypanosoma brucei serves as the current benchmark, significant gaps remain regarding condensate diversity across other kinetoplastids. We propose a broader investigation into whether these organisms utilise conserved condensates with divergent molecular compositions or entirely novel assemblies to drive their life cycle, pathogenesis, and immune evasion.
