Plasmodium Kinases as Potential Drug Targets for Malaria: Challenges and Opportunities
ACS Infectious Diseases, 2021 Protein and phosphoinositide kinases have been successfully exploited as drug targets in various disease areas, principally in oncology. In malaria, several protein kinases are under investigation as potential drug targets, and an inhibitor of Plasmodium

Plasmodium-Host-Plasmodium interactions [PDF]
Malaria Journal, 2010 Plasmodium passage through the skin followed by infection of liver hepatocytes and, later, of blood erythrocytes are natural and sequential steps of Plasmodium life cycle in the mammalian host and should not be seen as independent entities. Importantly, in regions of high malaria transmission, infected individuals are constantly exposed to potential re-

Plasmodium vivax Mimicking Morphologic Features of Plasmodium falciparum [PDF]
Cureus, 2020 Plasmodium vivax (P. vivax) is the most common cause of malaria in Pakistan. Several cases of severe malaria due to P.vivax have been reported from Pakistan and India, however morphological characteristics of the parasite have been mainly ignored. We present two cases of P.

Nucleic Acids Research, 2006 The use of selenocysteine (Sec) as the 21st amino acid in the genetic code has been described in all three major domains of life. However, within eukaryotes, selenoproteins are only known in animals and algae. In this study, we characterized selenoproteomes and Sec insertion systems in protozoan Apicomplexa parasites.

Plasmodium comparative genomics [PDF]
Briefings in Functional Genomics, 2019 Malaria is a serious infectious disease caused by unicellular eukaryotic parasites of the genus Plasmodium. Today more than 200 species exist [1], and whole-genome sequence data is available for around 22 species [2]. At least five different Plasmodium species can infect humans, of which Plasmodium falciparum is the major cause of morbidity and ...

A Study on the Effect of N-Acetylcysteine on Acute Kidney Injury due to Falciparum Malaria [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2021 Introduction: Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) occurs most commonly in Plasmodium falciparum infection. Next to cerebral malaria and anaemia, AKI is the third most common complication of falciparum malaria.
