A Systematic Targeted Genetic Screen Identifies Proteins Involved in Cytoadherence of the Malaria Parasite P. falciparum

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 123, Issue 4, Page 330-343, April 2025.
In silico workflow for selection of genes targeted in this study. We have identified a number of proteins involved in host cell modification by malaria parasites. Furthermore, we highlight a number of genes that appear to be essential for blood‐stage survival of these parasites.

A Soluble Expression Construct of the Isolated Catalytic Domain of Plasmodium falciparum ATP4 Exhibits ATPase Activity Independent of a γ‐Phosphate Receiving Aspartate

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Biochemical data on the isolated Na+/H+‐exchanging ATPase, PfATP4, from the malaria parasite are missing. Here, we expressed and purified the nucleotide and phosphate binding domains as a soluble protein and identified key residues by enzymatic characterization of generated point mutants.

Opsonic phagocytosis of Plasmodium falciparum merozoites: mechanism in human immunity and a correlate of protection against malaria

open access: yesBMC Medicine, 2014
BackgroundAn understanding of the mechanisms mediating protective immunity against malaria in humans is currently lacking, but critically important to advance the development of highly efficacious vaccines. Antibodies play a key role in acquired immunity,

Vaccine Adjuvants in the Immunocompromised Host: Science, Safety, and Efficacy

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vaccine adjuvants are essential for enhancing immune responses to vaccines, particularly in immunocompromised populations who typically demonstrate suboptimal responses to standard vaccination. This narrative review evaluates the safety and efficacy of approved and candidate adjuvants in immunocompromised hosts, with emphasis on solid organ ...

Insecticide‐treated nets distribution campaign: Physical integrity, usage and sustainable disposal of end‐of‐life insecticide‐treated nets under operational settings in Odisha, India

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Prior to 2017, Odisha accounted for 50% of all Plasmodium falciparum cases in India. The ‘National Strategic Plan’ for malaria elimination had distributed 11.3 million insecticidal treated nets (ITNs) to 23 million individuals in Odisha's 17 malaria‐endemic districts by 2017.

Management challenge of a rare concomitant platelet glycoprotein IV/CD36 and IIb/IIIa deficiencies: Case illustration

open access: yesTransfusion, Volume 65, Issue 4, Page 767-772, April 2025.
Abstract Introduction/Background Platelet membrane glycoproteins (GPs) serve several functions, the most significant of which is their role in primary hemostasis. Among these, GP IIb/IIIa is the primary fibrinogen receptor and is essential for platelet aggregation.
