Abstract Human transferrin receptor 1 (TfR) is essential for cellular iron homeostasis by internalizing the iron carrier proteins transferrin and ferritin. It is also an entry point for various pathogens, such as South American hemorrhagic fever caused by arenaviruses and the malaria parasite Plasmodium vivax, which utilize TfR to gain access to cells.

Plasmodium vivax is the most widely distributed human malaria parasite and responsible for large amounts of disease and burden [1]. The presence of P. vivax in the bone marrow was first noticed in the late 19th century [2], and examinations of sternal ...

A reversed granular hydrogel strategy creates highly porous 3D matrices within bone marrow (BM)‐on‐chip devices. Sacrificial alginate microgels generate interconnected microporosity that enhances nano/microparticle and cell mobilitymimicking pathogen agents—from the perfused vascular channel into the BM compartment, while preventing cell sedimentation ...

Malaria has provided a major selective pressure and has modulated the genetic diversity of the human genome. The variants of the Duffy Antigen/Receptor for Chemokines (DARC) gene have probably been selected by malaria parasites, particularly the FY*O ...

Detecting signatures of balancing selection to identify targets of anti-parasite immunity.
Parasite antigen genes might evolve under frequency-dependent immune selection. The distinctive patterns of polymorphism that result can be detected using population genetic methods that test for signatures of balancing selection, allowing genes encoding

An improved Plasmodium cynomolgi genome assembly reveals an unexpected methyltransferase gene expansion. [PDF]
Background: Plasmodium cynomolgi, a non-human primate malaria parasite species, has been an important model parasite since its discovery in 1907. Similarities in the biology of P.

Epidemiological Characteristics of Re-emerging Vivax Malaria in the Republic of Korea (1993–2017)
Historically, Plasmodium vivax malaria has been one of the most highly endemic parasitic diseases in the Korean Peninsula. Until the 1970s, vivax malaria was rarely directly lethal and was controlled through the Korean Government Program administered by ...

Immunogenic Modulations Induced by Prospective Anti-Malarial Herbal Extracts in Murine Model [PDF]
Keeping in view the ever increasing problem of drug resistance and affordability of the antimalarial drugs by the poor mass, herbal medicines can become an important and alternative sustainable strategy for malaria treatment.
