Cytokines and Chemokines in Cerebral Malaria Pathogenesis
Cerebral malaria is among the major causes of malaria-associated mortality and effective adjunctive therapeutic strategies are currently lacking. Central pathophysiological processes involved in the development of cerebral malaria include an imbalance of

Malaria remains of significant public health concern under the tropics, causing millions of deaths annually. The disease is caused by protozoans of the Plasmodium genus, of which harbors several distinct species. Human infection occurs during the blood meal of an infected female mosquito belonging to the Anopheles genus.

EphA2 contributes to disruption of the blood-brain barrier in cerebral malaria.
Disruption of blood-brain barrier (BBB) function is a key feature of cerebral malaria. Increased barrier permeability occurs due to disassembly of tight and adherens junctions between endothelial cells, yet the mechanisms governing junction disassembly ...

CXCL10<sup>high</sup> Microglia in Cerebral Malaria: Toward Translational Validation. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Wang et al. identify CXCL10high TNFαhigh Ki67+ microglia as drivers of CD8+ T cell recruitment during experimental cerebral malaria (ECM). We propose a conservative reframing: rather than asserting a fully validated new taxonomy, CXCL10high microglia should be considered a candidate “neuroimmune endotype” whose translational relevance requires

Diagnostic Accuracy of the National Library of Medicine (NLM) Screener Application in Screening for Malaria Parasites Among Blood Donors at the Korle-Bu Blood Bank, Ghana: A Cross-Sectional Study. [PDF]
Background and Aims Malaria is a deadly disease spread through the bite of an infected female Anopheles mosquito and remains the leading cause of mortality globally. Screening donated blood for malaria parasites is essential to prevent its transmission; however, conventional methods have limitations in accuracy and sensitivity.
