  1. Loire Valley Research Center UMR 1282 - ISP Multiresistances and Pathogeny factors from Nematodes

  2. Our main research topics Identification of the molecular targets of AH () in nematodes old and new molecules Decipher the molecular mechanisms involved in AH resistance Identify resistance markers Explore the diversity of ion channels from parasitic nematodes: Select and validate novel targets for next generation anthelmintics (chemical or natural) Claude CHARVET (IE, PhD) Jacques CORTET (TR) Guillaume SALLE (IR, DVM, PhD) Elise COURTOT (IE, PhD) Fabrice GUEGNARD (AI) Abdallah HARMACHE (IR, PhD) Christine KOCH (TR) Cedric NEVEU (DR, PhD, HDR) Delphine SERREAU (AT) Nicolas LAMASSIAUDE PhD student Mohamed ISSOUF Post-Doc

  3. Focus on recent technological developments Automated larval migration assay (ALMA) H. contortus L2/L3 ; T. cir; T. col, O. den Heligmosomoides in progress. Gene silencing of AH receptors in H. contortus C. elegans: Expression of parasite specific AH targets Crispr Cas9 : replace native AH targets by their parasitic nematode counterpart
