The role of Plasmodium falciparum var genes in malaria in pregnancy [PDF]
Sequestration of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes in the placenta is responsible for many of the harmful effects of malaria during pregnancy. Sequestration occurs as a result of parasite adhesion molecules expressed on the surface of infected ...

An evolutionary perspective on the kinome of malaria parasites [PDF]
Malaria parasites belong to an ancient lineage that diverged very early from the main branch of eukaryotes. The approximately 90-member plasmodial kinome includes a majority of eukaryotic protein kinases that clearly cluster within the AGC, CMGC, TKL ...

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

THE CULTIVATION OF THE PLASMODIUM FALCIPARUM IN VITRO [PDF]
In 1911, C. C. Bass 1 of New Orleans reported the successful cultivation of the plasmodium of malaria in vitro . He stated that he had been able to accomplish this by maintaining anaerobic conditions and a temperature of 40 C. (104 F.). Following these suggestions, Sinton 2 of London as reported in August, 1912, attempted the growth of the organisms ...

Biosynthese des Rotalgen‐Diterpens Peyssonnosol in Bakterien
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.

Microvascular sequestration of Plasmodium falciparum
A 2-year-old boy presented to a clinic in rural Mali with fever and malaise. Thick and thin blood films stained with Giemsa (left and right, respectively) revealed that 25.7% of circulating erythrocytes were parasitized with Plasmodium falciparum (273 450 ring-stage parasites per microliter of whole blood). The child had an axillary temperature of 36.9°

Detecting signatures of balancing selection to identify targets of anti-parasite immunity.
Parasite antigen genes might evolve under frequency-dependent immune selection. The distinctive patterns of polymorphism that result can be detected using population genetic methods that test for signatures of balancing selection, allowing genes encoding
