Artificial intelligence‐powered microscopy: Transforming the landscape of parasitology

Journal of Microscopy, Volume 301, Issue 2, Page 280-329, February 2026.
Abstract Microscopy and image analysis play a vital role in parasitology research; they are critical for identifying parasitic organisms and elucidating their complex life cycles. Despite major advancements in imaging and analysis, several challenges remain. These include the integration of interdisciplinary data; information derived from various model

Predicting the likelihood and intensity of mosquito infection from sex specific Plasmodium falciparum gametocyte density

eLife, 2018
Understanding the importance of gametocyte density on human-to-mosquito transmission is of immediate relevance to malaria control. Previous work (Churcher et al., 2013) indicated a complex relationship between gametocyte density and mosquito infection ...

Prospective evaluation of BDProbeTec strand displacement amplification (SDA) system for diagnosis of tuberculosis in non-respiratory and respiratory samples. [PDF]

, 2004
Nucleic acid amplification techniques (NAATs) have been demonstrated to make significant improvements in the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB), particularly in the time to diagnosis and the diagnosis of smear-negative TB. The BD ProbeTec strand displacement

Cellular Hallmarks From Volume Electron Microscopy Reveal Developmental Progression of Plasmodium Ookinetes

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, 19 January 2026.
This article presents a detailed ultrastructural cell atlas of Plasmodium ookinete development using advanced volume electron microscopy (v) techniques. It defines seven distinct developmental stages, revealing complex organelle interactions and offering new insights into parasite differentiation.

Target-agnostic identification of human antibodies to Plasmodium falciparum sexual forms reveals cross-stage recognition of glutamate-rich repeats

eLife
Circulating sexual stages of Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) can be transmitted from humans to mosquitoes, thereby furthering the spread of malaria in the population. It is well established that antibodies can efficiently block parasite transmission.

Plasmodium falciparum gametocyte carriage, emergence, clearance and population sex ratios in anaemic and non-anaemic malarious children

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2011
Anaemia in falciparum malaria is associated with an increased risk of gametocyte carriage, but its effects on transmission have not been extensively evaluated in malarious children.

Mass campaigns with antimalarial drugs: a modelling comparison of artemether-lumefantrine and DHA-piperaquine with and without primaquine as tools for malaria control and elimination

, 2015
Antimalarial drugs are a powerful tool for malaria control and elimination. Artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) can reduce transmission when widely distributed in a campaign setting.

Exploration and Characterization of the Antimalarial Activity of Pyrimidine‐2,4‐Diamines for which Resistance is Mediated by the ABCI3 Transporter

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 1, January 2026.
Investigation of the structure‐activity relationship on W482 (1) with a pyrimidine‐2,4‐diamine scaffold culminated in analog 51 with enhanced anti‐plasmodial activity. Forward genetics and phenotypic examination revealed the ABCI3 transporter protein as a putative resistance mechanism.

An Overview of the Neglected Modes of Existence in Avian Haemosporidian Parasites

Microorganisms
Haemosporidian parasites (Apicomplexa, Haemosporida) are diverse obligatory heteroxenous protists, which infect all major groups of terrestrial vertebrates and use dipterous blood-sucking insects as vectors.
