Cystoisospora suis, a porcine enteral parasite of the order Coccidia, is characterized by complex life cycle, with asexual and sexual development in epithelium host gut an environmental phase as oocyst. All developmental stages vary greatly their morphology function, therefore excrete different bioactive molecules for intercellular communication. Due to development, we hypothesized that extracellular vesicles (EVs) cargo highly dependent on cycle from which they are released. This study...
Domestic cats can be infested by a large range of parasite species. Parasitic infestations may cause very different clinical signs. Endoparasites and ectoparasites are rarely explored in the same study therefore multiparasitism is poorly documented. The present survey aimed to improve knowledge prevalence risk factors associated with ecto- endoparasite owned Europe.From March 2012 May 2013, 1519 were included multicenter conducted 9 veterinary faculties throughout Europe (Austria, Belgium,...
With the exception of Aelurostrongylus abstrusus, feline lungworms have been poorly studied. Information on their distribution is patchy and mostly limited to case reports. In this study, occurrence co-infecting gastrointestinal parasites has investigated in 12 European countries (i.e. Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, France, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Switzerland United Kingdom). An average 10 domestic cats, with regular outdoor access, was sampled each month for 12months,...
Austria's mammalian wildlife comprises a large variety of species, acting and interacting in different ways as reservoir intermediate definitive hosts for pathogens that can be transmitted to pets and/or humans. Foxes other wild canids are responsible maintaining zoonotic agents, e.g. Echinococcus multilocularis, well pet-relevant pathogens, Hepatozoon canis. Together with the canids, less commonly felids, rodents play major role paratenic hosts. They carry viruses such tick-borne...

Abstract The eco-epidemiology of zoonoses is often oversimplified to host-pathogen interactions while findings derived from global datasets are rarely directly transferable smaller-scale contexts. Through a systematic literature search, we compiled dataset naturally occurring zoonotic in Austria, spanning 1975–2022. We introduce the concept web describe complex relationships between agents, their hosts, vectors, food, and environmental sources. was explored through network analysis. After...
Effective control of tick infestation and pathogen transmission requires profound knowledge biology in view their vector function. The particular time the year when different species start to quest favoured sites on canine host are major interest. efficacy acaricides/repellents ticks field observation.To address these issues, 90 dogs, grouped "untreated", "acaricide/repellent" (permethrin) "acaricide only" (fipronil) animals subjected under natural conditions Burgenland (Eastern Austria),...
Transcriptomics (at the level of single cells, tissues and/or whole organisms) underpins many fields biomedical science, from understanding basic cellular function in model organisms, to elucidation biological events that govern development and progression human diseases, exploration mechanisms survival, drug-resistance virulence pathogens. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies are contributing a massive expansion transcriptomics all reducing cost, time performance barriers presented...
The modification of α1,6-linked fucose residues attached to the proximal (reducing-terminal) core N-acetylglucosamine residue N-glycans by β1,4-linked galactose ("GalFuc" epitope) is a feature number invertebrate species including model nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. A pre-requisite for both α1,6-fucosylation and β1,4-galactosylation presence nonreducing terminal N-acetylglucosamine; however, this normally absent from final glycan structure in invertebrates due action specific...
