The Effect of Banana Bacteria Wilt on The Socio-Economic Welfare of Farmers in Ruhinda Sub-County Rukungiri District .
Published 2023“…The highest number of respondents mentioned source of mulch for maintaining and improving soil fertility, the lowest number of respondents mentioned that the disease has led to increased poverty among households and the study continued on possible measures to control banana bacteria wilt in Ruhinda sub-county Rukungiri district, the highest number of respondents mentioned heating garden tools such as hoes, machete, knives and slashers over a fire until the metal is too hot to touch is also effective in killing the bacteria, the lowest number of respondents talked of timely removal of male buds with a forked stick is important in where insect vector that visit the diseased flower parts carry the pathogen. The study recommended that there should be quarantine enforcement by the government agencies to prevent spread of banana bacteria wilt to non-infected areas, there should be policies on the use of clean planting materials and regular inspection/screening for the approved banana nurseries to dispense banana bacteria wilt disease free materials and there should be production of free banana bacteria wilt such as banana tissue culture, train and encourage more banana nurseries producers/tissue culture hardening nurseries to avail clean banana planting materials.…”

Relationship between weapon size and six key behavioural and physiological traits in males of the European earwig
Published 2024-06-01“…We sampled hundreds of males from two populations, selected 60 males with the longest and shortest forceps from each population, and then measured locomotor performance, boldness, aggregation behaviour, survival under harsh conditions, sperm storage, and survival after pathogen exposure. Contrary to our predictions, we detected no main association between forceps length and the traits measured. …”

Targeting Nrf2/KEAP1 signaling pathway using bioactive compounds to combat mastitis
Published 2025-02-01“…When activated by bioactive compound treatment, Nrf2 translocates to the nucleus and induces the expression of its target genes to exert antioxidant responses. This reduces pathogen-induced oxidative stress and inflammation by inhibiting NF-kB signaling in the mammary glands, one of the prominent pro-inflammatory signaling pathway. …”

Alpha-defensins increase NTHi binding but not engulfment by the macrophages enhancing airway inflammation in Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency
Published 2025-02-01“…Previous studies demonstrated that high, rather than low α-defensin level could modulate the local pro-inflammatory milieu of bronchial epithelial cells and macrophages promoting chronic inflammation and lower pathogen phagocytosis. IgG-mediated phagocytosis and NTHi adherence, engulfment and phagocytosis were measured in human alveolar macrophages and monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) isolated from patients with AATD and from healthy individuals. …”

Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis on Human African Trypanocide Resistance
Published 2023“…Background Human African trypanocide resistance (HATr) is a challenge for the eradica- tion of Human African Trypansomiaisis (HAT) following the widespread emergence of increased monotherapy drug treatment failures against Trypanosoma brucei gambiense and T. b. rhodesiense that are associated with changes in pathogen receptors. Methods: Electronic searches of 12 databases and 3 Google search websites for human African trypanocide resistance were performed using a keyword search criterion applied to both laboratory and clinical studies. …”
