FT-GPI, a highly sensitive and accurate predictor of GPI-anchored proteins, reveals the composition and evolution of the GPI proteome in Plasmodium species

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2023
Background Protozoan parasites are known to attach specific and diverse group of proteins to their plasma membrane via a GPI anchor. In malaria parasites, GPI-anchored proteins (GPI-APs) have been shown to play an important role in host–pathogen ...

Bird Community Composition, Migration, and Environmental Factors Jointly Influence the Global Distribution of Avian Haemosporidian Lineages. [PDF]

open access: yesIntegr Zool
Avian haemosporidians are widely distributed; however, the role of migratory and non‐migratory birds, as well as environmental conditions, is incompletely understood. A histogram of the number of parasite lineages per ecoregion shows the variation in avian haemosporidian richness across space.

Molecular Investigation Confirms Myotis Genus Bats as Common Hosts of Polychromophilus in Brazil

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Plasmodium spp. and some other blood parasites belonging to the order Haemosporida are the focus of many epidemiological studies worldwide. However, haemosporidian parasites from wild animals are largely neglected in scientific research.

Acceptance, availability, and feasibility of RTS, S/AS01 malaria vaccine: A review

open access: yesImmunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 11, Issue 6, June 2023., 2023
RTS, S/AS01 vaccine offers a manageable route of administration and some evidence of effectiveness against malaria, albeit simultaneously increasing the incidence of meningitis and cerebral malaria complications. Abstract Introduction In malaria‐stricken regions, malaria continues to be one of the primary causes of mortality for children. The number of

Infection intensity shapes specialization and beta diversity of haemosporidian–bird networks across elevations

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Host–parasite distribution and interactions depend on geography, evolutionary associations, species composition, and their response to environmental variables. In this sense, host specificity as a key parasite's life history trait may determine parasite community composition but can be difficult to identify in nature.

The evolutionary host switches of Polychromophilus: a multi-gene phylogeny of the bat malaria genus suggests a second invasion of mammals by a haemosporidian parasite

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2012
Background The majority of Haemosporida species infect birds or reptiles, but many important genera, including Plasmodium, infect mammals. Dipteran vectors shared by avian, reptilian and mammalian Haemosporida, suggest multiple invasions of Mammalia ...

Prevalence and Genetic Diversity of Haemoproteus and Leucocytozoon in Raptors and Other Captive Birds at the National Zoological Garden in South Africa. [PDF]

open access: yesIntegr Zool
Captive birds at the National Zoological Garden in South Africa harbor diverse haemosporidian parasite species and lineages. This might compromise conservation efforts of threatened species. ABSTRACT Avian haemosporidian infections have been associated with disease outbreaks in zoos and rehabilitation centers globally. This study aimed to determine the

Egzoerithrocitinės Haemoproteus (Apicomplexa, Haemosporida) parazitų vystymosi stadijos laukiniuose paukščiuse: įžvalgos į vystymosi dėsningumus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Avian haemosporidian parasites of the genus Haemoproteus (Apicomplexa, Haemosporida) are widespread and can cause mortality in non-adaptive hosts. Over 170 species of these parasites were described but little is known about their complete life cycles ...

Carrion crows (Corvus corone) of southwest Germany: important hosts for haemosporidian parasites

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2017
Background Avian malaria parasites (Plasmodium spp.) and other Haemosporida (Haemoproteus and Leucocytozoon spp.) form a diverse group of vector-transmitted blood parasites that are abundant in many bird families.
