Global Epidemiology of Plasmodium vivax

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2016
Plasmodium vivax is the most widespread human malaria, putting 2.5 billion people at risk of infection. Its unique biological and epidemiological characteristics pose challenges to control strategies that have been principally targeted against Plasmodium

Plasmodium’s Sticky Fingers [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2005
The life cycle of the malaria parasite (Plasmodium) is remarkably complex. Malaria parasites must engage in highly specific and varied interactions with cell types of both the mammalian host and the mosquito vector. In this issue of Cell, report detailed molecular insights into an intimate interaction between a malaria parasite protein and its host ...

Biosynthesis of the Red Algal Diterpene Peyssonnosol in Bacteria

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Two terpene synthases derived from Anaerolineae bacteria catalyse the biosynthesis of peyssonnosene‐type diterpenes from red algae. Site‐directed mutagenesis enabled a partial functional switch, resulting in the formation of additional byproducts. The intricate cyclisation mechanisms were investigated through isotopic labelling experiments and density ...

Cerebral Plasmodium falciparum malaria: The role of PfEMP1 in its pathogenesis and immunity, and PfEMP1‐based vaccines to prevent it

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, 2019
Malaria, a mosquito‐borne infectious disease caused by parasites of the genus Plasmodium continues to be a major health problem worldwide. The unicellular Plasmodium‐parasites have the unique capacity to infect and replicate within host erythrocytes.

Cryopreservation of Plasmodium Sporozoites

open access: yesPathogens, 2022
Malaria is a deadly disease caused by the parasite, Plasmodium, and impacts the lives of millions of people around the world. Following inoculation into mammalian hosts by infected mosquitoes, the sporozoite stage of Plasmodium undergoes obligate development in the liver before infecting erythrocytes and causing clinical malaria.

Europe's contribution to the evaluation of the use of systemic antimicrobials in the treatment of periodontitis

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract This narrative review celebrates Europe's contribution to the current knowledge on systemically administered antimicrobials in periodontal treatment. Periodontitis is the most frequent chronic noncommunicable human disease. It is caused by dysbiotic bacterial biofilms and is commonly treated with subgingival instrumentation.

Gut Microbiota Composition Modulates the Magnitude and Quality of Germinal Centers during Plasmodium Infections

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Gut microbiota composition is associated with human and rodent Plasmodium infections, yet the mechanism by which gut microbiota affects the severity of malaria remains unknown.
