Susceptibility of two karyotypic forms of Anopheles aconitus (Diptera Culicidae) to Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax [PDF]
Four laboratory-raised colonies of two karyotypic forms of Anopheles aconitus, i.e., Form B (Chiang Mai and Phet Buri strains) and C (Chiang Mai and Mae Hong Son strains), were experimentally infected with Plasmodium falciparum and P.

Compensating P. falciparum artemisinin resistance [PDF]
Amino acid deprivation from reduced hemoglobin degradation in Pfkelch13 artemisinin-resistant parasites reduces fitness. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Mesén-Ramírez et al. decipher the role of nutrient permeable channel activity within the parasitophorous vacuolar membrane to compensate for this fitness cost in asexual blood-stage Plasmodium ...

Extreme parasitemia in P falciparum malaria [PDF]
![Figure][1] A 27-year-old man developed high fever after returning from sub-Saharan Africa. Trying to overcome this febrile illness during his annual leave (winter season), he had medical home visits, but the fever was repeatedly misdiagnosed as a flulike illness and treated with ...

P. falciparum Invasion and Erythrocyte Aging. [PDF]
Plasmodium parasites need to find red blood cells (RBCs) that, on the one hand, expose receptors for the pathogen ligands and, on the other hand, maintain the right geometry to facilitate merozoite attachment and entry into the red blood cell. Both characteristics change with the maturation of erythrocytes. Some Plasmodia prefer younger vs.

Antibodies to the glutamate dehydrogenase of Plasmodium falciparum [PDF]
Polyclonal antisera raised against Plasmodium knowlesi reacted with NADP-specific glutamate dehydrogenase (GLDH) of P. knowlesi, GLDH of P. falciparum and GLDH of Proteus spp. The antisera did not react with NAD(P) GLDH from bovine liver.

In vitro and ex vivo antiplasmodial activity of 1-(3-benzyloxy-4-methoxy-phenyl)-3-(3,4,5-trimethoxy-phenyl)-propan-1-one) against circulating strains of Plasmodium spp. in the state of Rondônia, Brazil [PDF]
Malaria is a disease caused by Plasmodium spp. protozoa. The ability of Plasmodium to develop resistance to current antimalarial drugs makes the study of chemotherapeutic alternatives extremely important.

Blood-stage parasitaemia and age determine Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax gametocytaemia in Papua New Guinea [PDF]
A better understanding of human-to-mosquito transmission is crucial to control malaria. In order to assess factors associated with gametocyte carriage, 2083 samples were collected in a cross-sectional survey in Papua New Guinea.

Contrasting Transmission Dynamics of Co-endemic Plasmodium vivax and P. falciparum: Implications for Malaria Control and Elimination. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Outside of Africa, P. falciparum and P. vivax usually coexist. In such co-endemic regions, successful malaria control programs have a greater impact on reducing falciparum malaria, resulting in P.

MOLECULAR-GENETIC MECHANISMS OF PLASMODIUM FALCIPARUM VIRULENCE AND TROPICAL MALARIA PATHOGENESIS
There is introduced the analysis of molecular-genetic mechanisms of tropical malaria pathogenesis and P. falciparum virulence. It is shown, that pathogenesis of tropical malaria is associated with the properties of red blood cells membrane surface (RBCs ...

Suppression of Plasmodium falciparum by serum collected from a case of Plasmodium vivax infection [PDF]
Background: It has frequently been reported that Plasmodium vivax suppressed Plasmodium falciparum and ameliorated disease severity in patients infected with these two species simultaneously.
