A Cross-Sectional Study of Malarial Patients in District Faisalabad, Pakistan: Frequency of Infection, Species Distribution, and Diagnostic Efficiency Comparison

Cyprus Journal of Medical Sciences
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Malarial infection, caused by Plasmodium parasites transmitted by female Anopheles mosquito, is still a serious public health concern, especially in endemic areas such as Sub-Saharan Africa and Pakistan. The study aims to investigate the

Nuevas rutas de permeabilidad en Plasmodium falciparum: consideraciones como blanco farmacológico y avances de los potenciales inhibidores

Actualidades Biológicas, 2021
Con base en la persistencia de los casos de malaria, dados por múltiples razones, entre las cuales se encuentra la resistencia de Plasmodium falciparum a los antimálaricos establecidos para su tratamiento, surge la necesidad de encontrar nuevos ...

Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

Spleen Infarction in Plasmodium Infection [PDF]

Liaquat National Journal of Primary Care
Dear Editor, Malaria is a zoonosis causing public health problems, and more than 600,000 deaths yearly mainly younger; splenic infarction or rupture are rarely described [1- 5].

The NTP generating activity of pyruvate kinase II is critical for apicoplast maintenance in Plasmodium falciparum

eLife, 2020
The apicoplast of Plasmodium falciparum parasites is believed to rely on the import of three-carbon phosphate compounds for use in organelle anabolic pathways, in addition to the generation of energy and reducing power within the organelle.

Pupil Plane Multiplexing for Vectorial Fourier Ptychography

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This study proposes a cost‐effective, modality‐adaptive multichannel microscopy framework using pupil‐plane multiplexing. A custom pupil aperture at the Fourier plane encodes channel‐specific transfer functions with spectral or polarization filters, and model‐based reconstruction with channel‐dependent priors decodes them.

Transcriptomic analysis reveals reduced transcriptional activity in the malaria parasite Plasmodium cynomolgi during progression into dormancy

eLife, 2018
Relapses of Plasmodium dormant liver hypnozoites compromise malaria eradication efforts. New radical cure drugs are urgently needed, yet the vast gap in knowledge of hypnozoite biology impedes drug discovery.

Avian malaria-mediated population decline of a widespread iconic bird species [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2019
Parasites have the capacity to affect animal populations by modifying host survival, and it is increasingly recognized that infectious disease can negatively impact biodiversity.

Long‐term impact of exposure to Royal Guard, a pyriproxyfen‐based bed net, on pyrethroid‐resistant malaria vectors from Cameroon using DNA‐based metabolic resistance markers

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2165-2180, April 2025.
We used recently detected P450 DNA‐based markers of pyrethroid resistance in both Anopheles funestus and Anopheles gambiae to demonstrate that although pyrethroid‐resistant mosquitoes have higher ability to survive and live longer after exposure to Royal Guard, this net significantly affects their lifespan, blood feeding ability and interestingly ...

La mitocondria en el género Plasmodium.

Biomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2003
La mitocondria en las células eucarióticas juega un papel central en el metabolismo energético. En Plasmodium, la mitocondria se adapta morfológica y fisiológicamente a las condiciones metabólicas de sus hospederos.
