Optimisation of freeze substitution protocols for the examination of malaria parasite structure by volumetric electron microscopy

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Malaria is one of the deadliest infectious diseases in the world, annually responsible for over 400,000 deaths. It is caused by parasites of the genus Plasmodium, which undergo remarkable structural changes during their development within different cells across various hosts.

KAI407, a potent non-8-aminoquinoline compound that kills Plasmodium cynomolgi early dormant liver stage parasites in vitro. [PDF]

, 2014
Preventing relapses of Plasmodium vivax malaria through a radical cure depends on use of the 8-aminoquinoline primaquine, which is associated with safety and compliance issues.

MOLECULAR ANALYSIS OF PBMSP-1 GENE IN ERYTHROCYTE OF MICE INFECTED WITH Plasmodium berghei

Jurnal Kedokteran Hewan, 2018
This study aimed to analyze MSP-1 gene in mice erythrocyte infected with Plasmodium berghei using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The result showed the existence of 462 bp DNA band which was assumed to encode MSP-1 protein with molecular weight of 19 ...

Theoretical implications of a pre-erythrocytic Plasmodium vivax vaccine for preventing relapses [PDF]

, 2017
Preventing malaria infection through vaccination requires preventing every sporozoite inoculated by mosquito bite: a major challenge for Plasmodium falciparum.

Distinct properties of the egress‐related osmiophilic bodies in male and female gametocytes of the rodent malaria parasite Plasmodium berghei

Cellular Microbiology, 2015
Gametogenesis is the earliest event after uptake of malaria parasites by the mosquito vector, with a decisive impact on colonization of the mosquito midgut. This process is triggered by a drop in temperature and contact with mosquito molecules.

Traction force generation in Plasmodium sporozoites is modulated by a surface adhesin

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Plasmodium sporozoites are the highly polarised and motile forms of the malaria parasite transmitted by mosquitoes to the vertebrate hosts. Sporozoites use myosin motors to generate retrograde flow of actin filaments. These are linked to plasma membrane spanning adhesins, which in turn bind to the extracellular environment, resulting in ...

HaloPROTAC3 does not trigger the degradation of the halotagged parasitophorous vacuole membrane protein UIS4 during Plasmodium liver stage development

Scientific Reports
Targeted protein degradation (TPD) is a novel strategy for developing therapeutics against pathogens. Prior to causing malaria, Plasmodium parasites replicate within hepatocytes as liver stages, surrounded by a parasitophorous vacuole membrane (PVM).

The Plasmodium berghei translocon of exported proteins reveals spatiotemporal dynamics of tubular extensions

Scientific Reports, 2015
The erythrocyte is an extraordinary host cell for intracellular pathogens and requires extensive remodelling to become permissive for infection. Malaria parasites modify their host red blood cells through protein export to acquire nutrients and evade ...

Acute Plasmodium yoelii 17XNL Infection During BCG Vaccination Limits T Cell Responses and Mycobacterial Growth Inhibition

Immunology, Volume 176, Issue 3, Page 373-384, November 2025.
Tuberculosis and malaria overlap in many sub‐Saharan African countries where BCG vaccination is routinely administered. The aim of this study was to determine whether the timing of BCG vaccination in relation to a malaria infection has implications for BCG vaccine efficacy.

Erythroferrone contributes to hepcidin repression in a mouse model of malarial anemia

Haematologica, 2017
Malaria, a major global health challenge worldwide, is accompanied by a severe anemia secondary to hemolysis and increased erythrophagocytosis. Iron is an essential functional component of erythrocyte hemoglobin and its availability is controlled by the ...
