PNAS plus: plasmodium falciparum responds to amino acid starvation by entering into a hibernatory state [PDF]

, 2012
The human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum is auxotrophic for most amino acids. Its amino acid needs are met largely through the degradation of host erythrocyte hemoglobin; however the parasite must acquire isoleucine exogenously, because this ...

Critical Steps of Plasmodium falciparum Ookinete Maturation [PDF]

, 2020
The egress and fertilization of Plasmodium gametes and development of a motile ookinete are the first crucial steps that mediate the successful transmission of the malaria parasites from humans to the Anopheles vector. However, limited information exists

Plasmodium falciparum glutamate dehydrogenase a is dispensable and not a drug target during erythrocytic development [PDF]

, 2011
<p>Background: Plasmodium falciparum contains three genes encoding potential glutamate dehydrogenases. The protein encoded by gdha has previously been biochemically and structurally characterized.

Identification of 11 potential malaria vaccine candidates using Bioinformatics [PDF]

VacciMonitor (2010), volumen 19(3), pp. 15-19, 2010
In this paper, we suggested eleven protein targets to be used as possible vaccines against Plasmodium falciparum causative agent of almost two to three million deaths per year. A comprehensive analysis of protein target have been selected from the small experimental fragment of antigen in the P.

Inactivation of Plasmodium falciparum in whole blood by riboflavin plus irradiation.

, 2013
BACKGROUND: Malaria parasites are frequently transmitted by unscreened blood transfusions in Africa. Pathogen reduction methods in whole blood would thus greatly improve blood safety.

Artemether resistance in vitro is linked to mutations in PfATP6 that also interact with mutations in PfMDR1 in travellers returning with Plasmodium falciparum infections. [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Monitoring resistance phenotypes for Plasmodium falciparum, using in vitro growth assays, and relating findings to parasite genotype has proved particularly challenging for the study of resistance to artemisinins.

Plasmodium falciparum Hsp70-x: A Heat Shock Protein at the Host - Parasite Interface [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
Plasmodium falciparum 70 kDa heat shock proteins (PfHsp70s) are expressed at all stages of the pathogenic erythrocytic phase of the malaria parasite lifecycle. There are six PfHsp70s, all of which have orthologues in other plasmodial species, except for PfHsp70-x which is unique to P. falciparum.

Short Report: Study variability in recent human challenge experiments with Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites (PfSPZ Challenge) [PDF]

, 2015
There has been renewed interest in the use of sporozoite-based approaches for malaria vaccination and controlled human infections, and several sets of human challenge studies have recently completed. A study undertaken in Tanzania and published in 2014 found dose-dependence between 10,000 and 25,000 sporozoite doses, as well as divergent times-to ...
