Progress towards the development of a P. vivax vaccine. [PDF]

Expert Rev Vaccines, 2021
Plasmodium vivax causes significant public health problems in endemic regions. A vaccine to prevent disease is critical, considering the rapid spread of drug-resistant parasite strains, and the development of hypnozoites in the liver with potential for relapse. A minimally effective vaccine should prevent disease and transmission while an ideal vaccine

Host metabolomic responses in recurrent P. vivax malaria. [PDF]

Sci Rep
AbstractMalaria is the leading parasitic disease worldwide, with P. vivax being a major challenge for its control. Several studies have indicated metabolomics as a promising tool for combating the disease. The study evaluated plasma metabolomic profiles of patients with recurrent and non-recurrent P. vivax malaria in the Brazilian Amazon.

Epidemiological characteristics of <i>P. vivax</i> asymptomatic infections in the Peruvian Amazon. [PDF]

Front Cell Infect Microbiol, 2022
IntroductionHerein, we tested the hypothesis that Asymptomatic P. vivax (Pv) infected individuals (Asym) feature different epidemiological, clinical and biochemical characteristics, as well as hematological parameters, potentially predictive of clinical immunity in comparison to symptomatic Pv infected individuals (Sym).MethodologyBetween 2018 - 2021 ...

Mosquito Salivary Antigens and Their Relationship to Dengue and <i>P. vivax</i> Malaria. [PDF]

Pathogens
In tropical areas, the simultaneous transmission of multiple vector-borne diseases is common due to ecological factors shared by arthropod vectors. Malaria and dengue virus, transmitted by Anopheles and Aedes mosquitoes, respectively, are among the top vector-borne diseases that cause significant morbidity and mortality in endemic areas.

A high force of plasmodium vivax blood-stage infection drives the rapid acquisition of immunity in papua new guinean children. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2013
When both parasite species are co-endemic, Plasmodium vivax incidence peaks in younger children compared to P. falciparum. To identify differences in the number of blood stage infections of these species and its potential link to acquisition of immunity,

Plasmodium falciparum , but not P. vivax , can induce erythrocytic apoptosis [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2014
Apoptosis can occur in red blood cells (RBC) and seems to be involved in hematologic disorders related to many diseases. In malaria it is known that parasitized RBC (pRBC) is involved in the development of anemia and thrombosis; however, non-parasitized RBC (nRBC) apoptosis could amplify these malaria-associated hematologic events.
