Repurposing Drugs for Malaria through a Human Dose Prediction: A Case Study with Berzosertib
Repurposing drugs whose clinical safety has been established offers a valuable approach to reduce the cost and time associated with the development of new drugs for malaria. Here, we investigate the potential to repurpose the anticancer kinase inhibitor berzosertib for the treatment of malaria, by assessing whether a predicted efficacious human dose ...

Morbidity from malaria in children in the year after they had received intermittent preventive treatment of malaria: a randomised trial. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Interventions that reduce exposure to malaria infection may lead to delayed malaria morbidity and mortality. We investigated whether intermittent preventive treatment of malaria in children (IPTc) was associated with an increase in the ...

Further evidence supporting a role for gs signal transduction in severe malaria pathogenesis. [PDF]
With the functional demonstration of a role in erythrocyte invasion by Plasmodium falciparum parasites, implications in the aetiology of common conditions that prevail in individuals of African origin, and a wealth of pharmacological knowledge, the ...

Quantitative electroencephalographic measures during postmalarial epileptogenesis
Abstract Objective Severe malaria with neurologic involvement contributes significantly to the global burden of acquired pediatric epilepsy. We studied quantitative electroencephalographic (EEG) measures in postmalarial epileptogenesis. Methods A total of 186 patients, aged 6 months to 11 years, with confirmed central nervous system malaria were ...

Genetic diversity of expressed Plasmodium falciparum var genes from Tanzanian children with severe malaria [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Severe malaria has been attributed to the expression of a restricted subset of the var multi-gene family, which encodes for Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1).

Abstract Background The molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation to physical exertion and racing stress in horses remain incompletely understood. Peripheral blood transcriptomics offers a minimally invasive method to monitor systemic responses to exercise and identify biomarkers of adaptation or overload. Objectives To evaluate transcriptomic changes

Case-control approach to identify Plasmodium falciparum polymorphisms associated with severe malaria. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Studies to identify phenotypically-associated polymorphisms in the Plasmodium falciparum 23 Mb genome will require a dense array of marker loci.
