Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenetic relationships among eight Eimeria species infecting domestic fowl inferred using complete small subunit ribosomal DNA sequences.

TL;DR: Clades of avian Eimeria species and the apparent absence of coccidia that infect the ceca of jungle fowl all suggest that E. necatrix and E. tenella may have arisen from a host switch, perhaps from the North American turkey, Meleagris gallopavo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contribution of the tetrodotoxin-resistant voltage-gated sodium channel NaV1.9 to sensory transmission and nociceptive behavior

TL;DR: The results suggest that inflammatory mediators modify the function of NaV1.9 to maintain inflammation-induced hyperalgesia and contribute to the persistent thermal hypersensitivity and spontaneous pain behavior after peripheral inflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Antifungal Echinocandin Caspofungin Acetate Kills Growing Cells of Aspergillus fumigatus In Vitro

TL;DR: D dye-staining patterns illustrate that the cells at the active centers for new cell wall synthesis within A. fumigatus hyphae are killed when they are exposed to caspofungin, an antifungal antibiotic that inhibits synthesis of 1,3-β-d-glucan, an essential component of the fungal cell wall.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative PCR assay to measure Aspergillus fumigatus burden in a murine model of disseminated aspergillosis: demonstration of efficacy of caspofungin acetate.

TL;DR: The qPCR assay is superior to traditional CFU determination for monitoring the progression of disseminated aspergillosis and evaluating the activity of antifungal antibiotics against A. fumigatus.
