Study on Types of Disease-Transmitting Insects Among Livestock in France
Insect vectors of diseases, especially the type “Culicoides,” are among the main factors threatening the health of humans and animals. The importance of studying these species lies in understanding how diseases are transmitted and achieving effective prevention. In this article, we review research on the different species of “Culicoides” that feed on livestock in France,…

Antibody Response in Chickens After Vaccination Against H9N2 Avian Influenza Virus
Avian influenza viruses (AIVs) pose a significant challenge to the poultry industry, as they are considered one of the main factors leading to severe economic losses, in addition to carrying serious zoonotic health risks. Estimates indicate that there are annual human infections resulting from these viruses, which increases the importance of controlling them through vaccination…

Identification of Parasitic Species of the Genus Eimeria in Camels in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia: Morphological and Genetic Study
Coccidiosis is considered one of the serious parasitic diseases affecting camels, caused by protozoan parasites of the genus “Eimeria,” leading to significantly reduced milk and meat production. In the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the scientific literature lacks studies focusing on the virological examinations of dromedary camels (Camelus dromedarius). Therefore, we conducted a comprehensive study to…

Infectious Complications Associated with Dimethyl Fumarate Treatment in Elderly Patients with Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is one of the complex inflammatory neurological diseases that affects the central nervous system, characterized by its diverse effects on immune functions. In recent years, the use of disease-modifying therapies, such as dimethyl fumarate (DMF), has become common in treating this condition, demonstrating significant efficacy and safety in research. However, concerns remain…

The role of TREM2 in the formation of fear-associated memory through the regulation of synaptic pruning by microglia.
The fear memory is considered one of the primary factors associated with psychological disorders related to fear and stress, such as post-traumatic stress disorder and phobias. Recent research has emerged to highlight the role played by microglial cells in shaping this memory, especially in the presence of synaptic deficiency and activation of microglia. While the…

The effect of oral treatment with dead M. manresensis on immunity against fungal infection in the fruit fly model Drosophila melanogaster
Pathogenic microorganisms are considered major factors contributing to the development of defense strategies in living organisms, where both innate and adaptive immune systems play a vital role in this context. One leading approach to enhancing the effectiveness of the innate immune system is through “training” or pre-activation of immune cells, which contributes to improving the…
