Abstract Malaria is a mosquito‐borne disease caused by protozoans of the genus Plasmodium that affects both humans and wildlife. The fitness consequences of infections by avian malaria are well known in birds, however, little information exists on its impact on mosquitoes.

Apolipophorin-III mediates antiplasmodial epithelial responses in Anopheles gambiae (G3) mosquitoes. [PDF]
Apolipophorin-III (ApoLp-III) is known to play an important role in lipid transport and innate immunity in lepidopteran insects. However, there is no evidence of involvement of ApoLp-IIIs in the immune responses of dipteran insects such as Drosophila and

The multifunctional autophagy pathway in the human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum. [PDF]
Autophagy is a catabolic pathway typically induced by nutrient starvation to recycle amino acids, but can also function in removing damaged organelles. In addition, this pathway plays a key role in eukaryotic development. To date, not much is known about

Cyclical Transmission of Plasmodium berghei in the Laboratory [PDF]
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.

Hybrid Molecules as Efficient Drugs against Multidrug‐Resistant Malaria Parasites
Among hybrid molecules currently developed as antimalarial drug candidates, emoquine‐1 exhibits high activity against all the multidrug‐resistant Plasmodium strains tested up to now, including artemisinin‐resistant quiescent parasites, critical parameters for promising antimalarial drugs. It is also curative in mouse malaria.

Contribution of the Ly49E natural killer receptor in the immune response to Plasmodium berghei infection and control of hepatic parasite development. [PDF]
Natural killer (NK) cells have different roles in the host response against Plasmodium-induced malaria depending on the stage of infection. Liver NK cells have a protective role during the initial hepatic stage of infection by production of the TH1-type ...

Workflow of current study. ABSTRACT Malaria remains a significant public health challenge in Niger, accounting for 5.6% of global malaria‐related deaths. Local medicinal plants are frequently used as traditional treatments for malaria, although their efficacy and safety are often insufficiently investigated.

Microglia exhibit distinct transcriptional and morphological heterogeneity in experimental cerebral malaria (ECM) compared to physiological microglia. A unique subtype of ECM‐associated microglia, characterized by CXCL10highTNFαhighKi67+, mediates the recruitment and sustained activation of CD8+ T cells through ongoing interactions, exacerbating ...

Compounds were identified that inhibit the aspartic protease plasmepsin V from Plasmodium vivax. Further development of these compounds identified compounds, such as S‐WM48, that could inhibit both plasmepsin V and plasmepsin X but plasmepsin IX was not significantly inhibited.
