Effect of preventive chemotherapy with praziquantel on schistosomiasis among school-aged children in sub-Saharan Africa: a spatiotemporal modelling study

Christos Kokaliaris et al.

Summary: In sub-Saharan Africa, the prevalence of schistosomiasis among school-aged children decreased from 23.0% in 2000-10 to 9.6% in 2015-19, representing an overall reduction of 58.3%. The substantial decrease in prevalence is likely attributed to the scale-up of preventive chemotherapy interventions. It is necessary to maintain the progress in schistosomiasis control through various interventions, including preventive chemotherapy.

Carbonic Anhydrase VIII (CAVIII) Gene Mediated Colorectal Cancer Growth and Angiogenesis through Mediated miRNA 16-5p

Mingli Hsieh et al.

Summary: Research has shown that CAVIII is overexpressed in colorectal cancer tissues and more aggressive cancer cells. It may facilitate the release of VEGF by inhibiting miRNA16-5p. The CAVIII/miR-16-5p signaling pathway appears to function as a metastasis suppressor in CRC.

A reverse vaccinology approach on transmembrane carbonic anhydrases from Plasmodium species as vaccine candidates for malaria prevention

Reza Zolfaghari Emameh et al.

Summary: This study analyzed two groups of transmembrane CAs in Plasmodium spp., including alpha-CAs and one group of eta-CAs, using immunoinformatics and computational biology methods. The results showed that these CAs have high affinity, stability, and antigenicity, making them potential targets for malaria vaccination.

Carbonic anhydrase XII mediates the survival and prometastatic functions of macrophages in human hepatocellular carcinoma

Wan-Ru Ning et al.

Summary: CA12 plays a critical role in the survival of macrophages in tumor microenvironments and promotes cancer cell metastasis. Targeting CA12 with specific inhibitors can inhibit tumor growth and enhance the efficacy of immune-checkpoint blockade therapy.

Carbonic-anhydrase IX expression is increased in thyroid cancer tissue and represents a potential therapeutic target to eradicate thyroid tumor-initiating cells

Jennifer Schmidt et al.

Summary: The expression of CAIX varies among different subtypes of thyroid cancer, with high CAIX expression being associated with lymph node metastases, advanced tumor stages, and poor survival. Knockdown or inhibition of CAIX can suppress cell proliferation and the ability of cancer stem cells to form tumorspheres.

PIWI silencing mechanism involving the retrotransposon nimbus orchestrates resistance to infection with Schistosoma mansoni in the snail vector, Biomphalaria glabrata

Michael Smith et al.

Summary: The goal to reduce schistosomiasis by controlling the snail population faces challenges due to the complex life cycle of the parasite and lack of vaccines and new drugs. The study highlights the importance of understanding the molecular basis of how schistosomes survive in snails to effectively break the parasite's life cycle.
