Behavioural effects of the common brain-infecting parasite Pseudoloma neurophilia in laboratory zebrafish (Danio rerio)
Midttun, Helene Louise Eghave; Vindas, Marco; Nadler, Lauren Elizabeth; Øverli, Øyvind; Johansen, Ida Beitnes (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Research conducted on model organisms may be biased due to undetected pathogen infections. Recently, screening studies discovered high prevalence of the microsporidium Pseudoloma neurophilia in zebrafish (Danio rerio) ... -
Brain-encysting trematodes (Euhaplorchis californiensis) decrease raphe serotonergic activity in California killifish (Fundulus parvipinnis)
Helland-Riise, Siri Helene; Vindas, Marco; Johansen, Ida Beitnes; Nadler, Lauren Elizabeth; Weinersmith, Kelly L.; Hechinger, Ryan F.; Øverli, Øyvind (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Modulation of brain serotonin (5-HT) signalling is associated with parasite-induced changes in host behaviour, potentially increasing parasite transmission to predatory final hosts. Such alterations could have substantial ... -
A brain‐infecting parasite impacts host metabolism both during exposure and after infection is established
Nadler, Lauren Elizabeth; Bengtson, Erik; Eliason, Erika J.; Helland-Riise, Siri Helene; Johansen, Ida Beitnes; Turner, Andrew; Øverli, Øyvind; Hechinger, Ryan F. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)1. Metabolic costs associated with parasites should not be limited to established infections. Even during initial exposure to questing and attacking parasites, hosts can enact behavioural and physiological responses that ... -
Regional Distribution of a Brain-Encysting Parasite Provides Insight on Parasite-Induced Host Behavioral Manipulation
Helland-Riise, Siri Helene; Nadler, Lauren Elizabeth; Vindas, Marco; Bengston, Erik; Turner, Andrew; Johansen, Ida Beitnes; Weinersmith, Kelly L.; Hechinger, Ryan F.; Øverli, Øyvind (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
