Chronic visceral pain is a persistent and debilitating condition arising from dysfunction or sensitization of the visceral organs and their associated nervous pathways. Increasing evidence suggests that imbalances in central nervous system function play an essential role in the progression of visceral pain, but the exact mechanisms underlying the neural circuitry and molecular targets remain largely unexplored. In the present...

Infection by Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP) leads to stunted or arrested growth in shrimp, causing significant economic losses in shrimp aquaculture. In this study, the spore wall protein EhSW12 was expressed using a prokaryotic expression system. Subsequently, phage display technology was employed to screen for peptides that interact with EhSW12. A rapid detection method was developed that bypasses the laborious procedure...
