Molecular identification of Plasmodium species responsible for malaria reveals Plasmodium vivax isolates in Duffy negative individuals from southwestern Nigeria

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2018
Background Malaria in Nigeria is principally due to Plasmodium falciparum and, to a lesser extent to Plasmodium malariae and Plasmodium ovale. Plasmodium vivax is thought to be absent in Nigeria in particular and sub-Saharan Africa in general, due to the

Endothelial Atypical Receptors for Chemoattractants in Lung Immune Surveillance

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 8, August 2026.
Control of chemokine gradients within tissues is achieved by atypical chemokine receptors (ACKRs). The lungs require tightly regulated leukocyte recruitment for effective host defense while preventing tissue damage. In this context, ACKRs expressed by lung endothelial cells are emerging as critical regulators of leukocyte trafficking and inflammatory ...

Contrasting Transmission Dynamics of Co-endemic Plasmodium vivax and P. falciparum: Implications for Malaria Control and Elimination. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Outside of Africa, P. falciparum and P. vivax usually coexist. In such co-endemic regions, successful malaria control programs have a greater impact on reducing falciparum malaria, resulting in P.

The detection of cryptic Plasmodium infection among villagers in Attapeu province, Lao PDR.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017
BackgroundAlthough the malaria burden in the Lao PDR has gradually decreased, the elimination of malaria by 2030 presents many challenges. Microscopy and malaria rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) are used to diagnose malaria in the Lao PDR; however, some ...

Improving Malaria Parasite Gene Flow Inference Under Sparse Spatial Sampling

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 6, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Estimating malaria parasite migration is crucial for informing elimination strategies, particularly by identifying regions with higher parasite migration that may serve as transmission sources and intervention targets. Methods that infer spatial variations in gene flow from georeferenced genetic data, including Estimated Effective Migration ...

ama1 genes of sympatric Plasmodium vivax and P. falciparum from Venezuela differ significantly in genetic diversity and recombination frequency. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
BACKGROUND: We present the first population genetic analysis of homologous loci from two sympatric human malaria parasite populations sharing the same human hosts, using full-length sequences of ama1 genes from Plasmodium vivax and P.

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 990-1015, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

The incidence and differential seasonal patterns of Plasmodium vivax primary infections and relapses in a cohort of children in Papua New Guinea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Plasmodium vivax has the ability to relapse from dormant parasites in the liver weeks or months after inoculation, causing further blood-stage infection and potential onward transmission.

Imported Plasmodium vivax Malaria in the Russian Federation from Western Sub-Saharan Africa

open access: yesJournal of Tropical Medicine, 2019
Background. Imported cases of Plasmodium vivax malaria from western Africa are reported annually in the Russian Federation. Infected native African people moving from western Africa for different purposes (students, businessmen, specialists, etc.) or ...
