Targeted disruption of py235ebp-1: Invasion of erythrocytes by Plasmodium yoelii using an alternative Py235 erythrocyte binding protein [PDF]

, 2011
Plasmodium yoelii YM asexual blood stage parasites express multiple members of the py235 gene family, part of the super-family of genes including those coding for Plasmodium vivax reticulocyte binding proteins and Plasmodium falciparum RH proteins.

The disappearance of malaria from Denmark, 1862–1900

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The reason for malaria's disappearance from northwestern Europe in the early twentieth century has long been discussed but remains an unresolved conundrum. This is partially due to a previous focus on the early modern era, and partially because various theories have never been tested against each other.

New Evidence of TLR4 and TLR9 Variants Influencing Parasitaemia and Symptoms of Plasmodium vivax Infection

International Journal of Immunogenetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) induce the production of pro‐inflammatory cytokines and regulate the immune response to Plasmodium vivax infection. Genetic variants of TLRs are associated with susceptibility and severity of malaria in different populations. This study aimed to evaluate the association between polymorphisms in TLR1, TLR4, TLR7, TLR8,

Artificial intelligence‐powered microscopy: Transforming the landscape of parasitology

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Microscopy and image analysis play a vital role in parasitology research; they are critical for identifying parasitic organisms and elucidating their complex life cycles. Despite major advancements in imaging and analysis, several challenges remain. These include the integration of interdisciplinary data; information derived from various model

Towards Malaria Elimination: A Nationwide Case–Control Study to Assess Risk Factors for Severe Malaria‐Related Deaths in Brazil

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The objective of this study is to describe malaria‐related deaths and assess their risk factors. Methods This is a case–control study using data from Brazil's Ministry of Health (2011–2020) on malaria‐related deaths (ICD‐10: B50‐B54). A probabilistic record linkage was performed to match epidemiological data (Sivep‐Malaria and Sinan)

Impact of NLRP1 Met1154Val and IL1B variants on gestational malaria: an unexplored role of NLRP1 in inflammasome activation by Plasmodium spp.

The Journal of Pathology, Volume 267, Issue 3, Page 304-314, November 2025.
Abstract We hypothesized that variants in inflammasome‐related genes could influence susceptibility to gestational malaria (GM). To test this, we conducted an association study in a cohort of pregnant women from a malaria‐endemic region in northern Brazil, assessing whether specific functional single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in inflammasome genes ...

Reimagining Social Value to Consider the Environment: How Should We Judge the Magnitude of Benefits in Health Research?

Bioethics, Volume 39, Issue 9, Page 821-833, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Growing recognition of intersections between our health and the environment, healthcare systems and the environment, and health research and the environment has led bioethics scholars to advocate that the field readopt a broader perspective that considers nature.
