Hemoglobin Digestion Genes Are Conserved in Lizard‐Infective Plasmodium Species With Different Host Cellular Niches

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Despite their evolutionary relatedness to malaria parasites that infect humans, wildlife Plasmodium—particularly those that infect birds and lizards—are understudied, leaving their vast genetic diversity to be explored. By assembling parasite transcriptomes from Plasmodium‐infected lizard blood, we provide the first evidence that lizard‐infective ...

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 ...

Cortisone and Plasmodium berghei Infection in Mice [PDF]

Nature, 1952
THERE is considerable clinical evidence to show that in persons infected with malaria various stimuli may precipitate an acute attack. These stimuli include surgical operations, the injection of vaccines, exposure to cold, and possibly, for persons who have not become acclimatized, ascent to high altitudes.

Investigation of Ethylene Oxide Genotoxicity Dose–Response to Inform Cancer Risk Assessment

Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, Volume 67, Issue 5-7, June‐August 2026.
ABSTRACT Ethylene oxide (EtO) is primarily used as an intermediate in the manufacture of chemicals, with a minor use as a sterilant for medical equipment and food products. It is a direct‐acting alkylating agent that reacts with cellular macromolecules, including proteins and DNA. EtO has been shown to induce tumors in rodents and humans.

Crystal structure of Plasmodium vivax macrophage migration inhibitory factor

Acta Crystallographica Section F, Volume 82, Issue 6, Page 194-200, June 2026.
The production, crystallization and 1.8 Å resolution crystal structure of macrophage migratory inhibitory factor from P. vivax are reported.Plasmodium vivax is a major cause of malaria globally and has recently been transmitted locally in the USA. P. vivax produces homologs of host proteins, including cytokines such as macrophage migration inhibitory ...

Unravelling the biochemical aspects of the interaction between ticks and Leishmania using a tick cell line

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 350-359, June 2026.
Leishmania infantum propagated in IDE8 tick cell line in vitro. L. infantum reduces tick cell viability and induces reactive oxygen species production. Lipidic profile of IDE8 tick cell line is altered during Leishmania infection. Abstract Leishmaniasis comprises a group of vector‐borne neglected tropical diseases caused by species of the obligatory ...

Cyclical Transmission of Plasmodium berghei in the Laboratory [PDF]

Nature, 1952
CYCLICAL transmission of P. berghei has been successfully carried out under experimental conditions. A batch of laboratory-bred A. quadrimaculatus and A. stephensi fed on February 15 on a hamster infected eight days previously with the Kasapa strain of P. berghei.

Robust Bioconjugated Antigens Induce Immune Responses Preventing Malaria Infection and its Transmission

Small, Volume 22, Issue 28, 18 May 2026.
Engineered malaria antigens enable in vivo bioconjugation to submicron biopolymer particles in E. coli. Two antigens are co‐tethered at high density and defined stoichiometry. The resulting thermostable particles elicit strong, durable antibody and T‐cell responses, conferring robust protection and blocking mosquito transmission.

Antiplasmodial Activity and Pharmacokinetic Profiling of Cryptolepine and 2,7‐Dibromocryptolepine With a View to Informing the Design of Novel Antimalarial Cryptolepine Analogues

Drug Development Research, Volume 87, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The roots of the climbing shrub Cryptolepis sanguinolenta are traditionally used in West Africa for the treatment of malaria. The principal constituent, cryptolepine (1), has been shown to have antimalarial activity but there are concerns regarding its toxicity on account of its DNA‐intercalating property.
