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.

Genomic analyses of complex P. vivax infections [PDF]

Malaria Journal, 2014
Results All field isolates sequenced so far show evidence of complex infections, with typically 2-4 strains present at >5%. We show that it is possible, empirically and analytically, to rigorously differentiate these parasites and reconstruct haploid genome sequences from these complex infections.

Dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine versus chloroquine to treat vivax malaria in Afghanistan: an open randomized, non-inferiority, trial. [PDF]

, 2010
BACKGROUND: Afghanistan's national guidelines recommend chloroquine for the treatment of Plasmodium vivax infection, the parasite responsible for the majority of its malaria burden. Chloroquine resistance in P. vivax is emerging in Asia.

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]

Brazilian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2023
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.

Suppression of Plasmodium falciparum by serum collected from a case of Plasmodium vivax infection [PDF]

, 2008
Background: It has frequently been reported that Plasmodium vivax suppressed Plasmodium falciparum and ameliorated disease severity in patients infected with these two species simultaneously.
