Sex in Immune Cells and Parasitic Diseases — A Complex Relationship

Immunological Reviews, Volume 337, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological studies consistently show that many parasitic diseases affect males more frequently than females. These disparities are multifactorial, arising partly from gender‐specific behaviors that influence exposure risk and health‐seeking practices, especially in low‐ and middle‐income countries. Increasing evidence also highlights that

Immune Modulation by Plasmodium yoelii: Insights From Lethal and Non‐Lethal Strains

Parasite Immunology, Volume 48, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Malaria pathogenesis is driven by intricate host–parasite interactions that determine immune balance and clinical outcome. The Plasmodium yoelii model, particularly its lethal (17XL) and non‐lethal (17XNL) strains, provides a robust framework to investigate these dynamics.

Malaria Screening and Treatment in Hematopoietic Cell Transplant Donors and Sickle Cell Disease Candidates/Recipients: A Case Series Using Malaria Polymerase Chain Reaction Testing and a Literature Review

Transplant Infectious Disease, Volume 28, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Malaria polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing is more sensitive than conventional diagnostics. Routine PCR screening of at‐risk asymptomatic hematopoietic cell donors and transplant candidates may prevent unnecessary deferrals or treatment. In our experience, PCR negativity during screening or after treatment supports donor/candidate eligibility ...
