Functional Identification of the Plasmodium Centromere and Generation of a Plasmodium Artificial Chromosome [PDF]

Cell Host & Microbe, 2010
The artificial chromosome represents a useful tool for gene transfer, both as cloning vectors and in chromosome biology research. To generate a Plasmodium artificial chromosome (PAC), we had to first functionally identify and characterize the parasite's centromere.

RPL6 Interacts with HMGCS1 to Stabilize HIF‐1α by Promoting Cholesterol Production in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study found that RPL6 is frequently upregulated in HCC tissues with extrahepatic metastasis. Elevated RPL6 bound to and increased the stability of HMGCS1 mRNA, thereby enhancing intracellular cholesterol levels. Subsequently, increased cholesterol promotes cancer metastasis in HCC by stabilizing HIF‐1α protein.

Translation of a Human‐Based Malaria‐on‐a‐Chip Phenotypic Disease Model for In Vivo Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inoculation of the Malaria‐on‐a‐Chip model with human erythrocytes infected with Plasmodium falciparum can support the entire intraerythrocytic lifecycle for 7 days in vitro. Utilizing this human‐based, serum‐free model provides an alternative to animal testing by introducing a human‐based, preclinical alternative for antimalarial therapeutic delivery.

Rapid Visual Detection of Plasmodium Using Recombinase-Aided Amplification With Lateral Flow Dipstick Assay

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
BackgroundMalaria is a global public health problem. China has had no case of indigenous malaria since 2016. However, imported cases of malaria remain an issue among travelers, overseas workers, and foreign traders.

Nascent RNA sequencing reveals mechanisms of gene regulation in the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. [PDF]

, 2017
Gene expression in Plasmodium falciparum is tightly regulated to ensure successful propagation of the parasite throughout its complex life cycle. The earliest transcriptomics studies in P.

In Vitro Monitoring of Babesia microti Infection Dynamics in Whole Blood Microenvironments

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Here, an open microfluidic platform termed “µ‐Blood” is reported for real‐time, continuous monitoring of Babesia microti infection dynamics in vitro. µ‐Blood allows direct interrogation of whole blood with preserved integrity of the original whole blood microenvironment through an extended period (e.g., 72 h with mouse red blood cells) ex vivo. µ‐Blood

Biosynthese des Rotalgen‐Diterpens Peyssonnosol in Bakterien

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Zwei Terpensynthasen aus Anaerolineae‐Bakterien katalysieren die Biosynthese von Peyssonnosen‐artigen Diterpenen aus Rotalgen. Ortsgerichtete Mutagenese ermöglichte einen partiellen Funktionswechsel, der zur Bildung zusätzlicher Nebenprodukte führte.

Pyronaridine for treatment of Plasmodium ovale and Plasmodium malariae infections [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1997
The clinical efficacy of oral pyronaridine was assessed in 22 symptomatic Cameroonian patients infected with Plasmodium ovale or Plasmodium malariae. All patients were cured on or before day 4. In vitro drug assays confirmed the sensitivity of P. ovale and P. malariae isolates to chloroquine and pyronaridine.
