Organismes vermiformes d'une embranchement nommé #Nematomorpha, ils fréquentent les #eauxDouces cosmopolites (les points d'eau des grottes, les flaques, les étangs, les lacs, les cours d'eau de toutes tailles, mais aussi domestiques comme les piscines, les cuvettes de toilettes, les abreuvoirs pour bovins et les gamelles d'animaux de compagnie 🤪 ).

#safely eradicate #parasites via #gene-drive
#medical : lice, scabies : #gene_drive
#lice (body, pubic, head) & #mites (' #scabies ') and #bedbugs have no #natural_predators , it would be fantastically amazing to have a #genedrive to #eradicate the sometimes-lethal insects. Last year, it was widely reported, one on the east coast had died -- was literally eaten alive by a parasite colony in jail. No treatment had been granted, despite repeat complaints. More recently, prisoners in #ice jails, families & children in #Gaza , and held in #Israeli #prisons have reported being deliberately #infected with scabies and lice, suffering horribly. Also #RX #treatment_resistance - much like #antibiotic_resistance w #superbugs - to conventional RX (#antiparasitics ) has skyrocketed: in late 1990s, efficacy was ~97% in USA. But a decade ago by 2016, dropped to ~35%. Today, the identical treatment is prescribed as 30 years ago. Finally, said #drugs = #neurotoxin #nerve_damage . A #genedrive could fix all of that. What is it? A gene edit which makes 100% of all offspring male: no females = inability to #reproduce and it perpetuates every generation so an edited male reproduces w nonedited female and all eggs become male, also carrying the gene-edit.... And eventually the colony depopulates entirely. A very fast & effective cure ..... versus.... a months-long hopeless battle dousing one's body in vinegar, daily, plus numerous other toxins & nerve damage. -

The U.S. has confirmed its first human case of the New World screwworm, a flesh-eating parasite whose northward creep from South America has put the country's cattle industry on high alert in recent months.

Parasite of the Day: Euglenaformis parasitica
http://dailyparasite.blogspot.com/2023/12/euglenaformis-parasitica.html"#Euglena and its kin are mostly free-living, photosynthesizing when the sun's out, absorbing organic matter from the environment when it's dark. But the ancestor of E. parasitica was not content with this mostly peaceful lifestyle, and has evolved to live inside the body of #animals. These #euglenids were found parasitising #ostracods & #flatworms in a rice field in #Ibaraki, #Japan."

World's heaviest flying #bird may be self-medicating on plants used in traditional medicine
https://phys.org/news/2022-11-world-heaviest-flying-bird-self-medicating.htmlBioactivity of #plants eaten by wild #birds against laboratory models of #parasites and #pathogens https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fevo.2022.1027201/full
#GreatBustards seek out two species of weeds that are also used by humans in #TraditionalMedicine. Both contain antiprotozoal and nematicidal (ie, worm-killing) compounds, while the second also contains antifungal agents.
