Ultrastructural Analysis of Extracellular Vesicles and Surface Protrusions from the Parasite Tritrichomonas foetus

This study uses electron microscopy to identify extracellular vesicles and membrane protrusions in T. foetus, showing their association with VPS32 and suggesting a role in host-parasite interactions.

Chemotaxis and selective interactions of Trichomonas vaginalis with the vaginal bacteria

This study shows Trichomonas vaginalis exhibits chemotaxis toward Lactobacillus gasseri and avoids Gardnerella vaginalis, revealing pH taxis and selective interactions with vaginal bacteria.

Epigenetic reprogramming restores metronidazole sensitivity in drug-resistant Trichomonas vaginalis parasites

This study shows that epigenetic reprogramming can restore metronidazole sensitivity in drug-resistant Trichomonas vaginalis by targeting histone acetylation and reactivating silenced genes.
