Among these, mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) have emerged as important regulatory nodes, yet their contribution to parasite biology and their value as potential therapeutic targets remain incompletely resolved. This review examines the expanding landscape of Leishmania MAPKs, encompassing 15 homologues across pathogenic species, and synthesizes evidence linking individual kinases to parasite differentiation, intracellular survival, stress tolerance, motility, virulence, and drug response. Rather than treating the MAPK repertoire as a uniform kinase family, we critically assess the extent to which individual members have been experimentally validated and distinguish mechanistically established targets from computationally proposed candidates. Structural peculiarities, regulatory architecture, and substrate recognition offer potential opportunities for parasite-selective kinase inhibition; however, functional redundancy, incomplete kinase-substrate networks, stage-specific signalling, and conservation of MAPK pathways in the host remain substantial obstacles. We further evaluate small-molecule and natural-product inhibitors, drug-repurposing strategies, and structure-guided approaches, while considering emerging contributions from molecular dynamics, AlphaFold-based structural modelling, artificial intelligence, and nanotechnology to drug discovery. Beyond chemotherapy, evidence supporting MAPK10 as a vaccine-associated antigen broadens the translational relevance of this signalling system. Thus, the current findings position Leishmania MAPKs as a multifaceted interface between parasite signalling, adaptation, and therapeutic vulnerability.

Ever-increasing reports have shown that C. albicans is also readily implicated in a set of metabolic and autoimmune diseases.

Candidalysin contributes to fungal penetration across epithelial barrier via cytolytic activity, as well as the maintenance of commensalism and pathogenicity of Candida albicans. To specifically depict the role of candidalysin in multiple candidiasis and C. albicans associated infections, in this review, we focus on the recent advancements of candidalysin in oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC), vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC), disseminated candidaemia and sepsis. Meanwhile, we also pay close attention to the potential pathogenic mechanism of candidalysin in several C. albicans associated diseases including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), asthma, Alzheimer's disease (AD) and alcohol-associated liver diseases (ALD). Based on these achievements, we propose a list of unresolved questions of interest for future investigation on biological functions and therapeutic potential of candidalysin in fungal infections caused by C. albicans. Unlocking the mode of action of candidalysin is beneficial for deep understanding of how C. albicans breaks through mucosal or blood brain barrier to colonize the niche via candidalysin and for rational design of fungal vaccine against candidalysin for clinical applications.

Insufficient dietary intake of selenium increases the risk of type 2 diabetes, infertility, immune dysfunction, prostate cancer, cognitive decline, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer in females, skeletal muscle disorders, overall mortality and an endemic cardiomyopathy known as Keshan disease. Excessive intake of selenium is toxic, leading to a condition termed selenosis, that is associated with damage to the nails, dermatitis, alopecia, central nervous system dysfunction and death. Selenium exerts its biological effects through low-molecular weight molecules, through a small family of selenoproteins which contain the 21st amino acid selenocysteine, and via selenium-binding proteins, in which an atom of selenium is covalently bound to a cysteine residue. In addition to being regulated by body selenium status, the abundance and function of these biomolecules can be controlled by other dietary components (including copper, zinc, folic acid, resveratrol, vitamin A and α-linoleic acid) and other factors, such as exercise and caloric restriction. This review comprehensively surveys the effects of selenium-containing biomolecules on aging and aims to generate rationales underpinning the biphasic effects of this element on life-span, health-span and disease.
