Novel sporozoite-based ELISpot assay to assess frequency of parasite-specific B cells after vaccination with irradiated sporozoites

Malaria Journal, 2019
Background Whole parasite vaccination is an efficacious strategy to induce sterile immunity and to prevent malaria transmission. Understanding the mechanism and response of immune cells to vaccines plays a critical role in deciphering correlates of ...

Plasmodium berghei sporozoite invasion is blocked in vitro by sporozoite-immobilizing antibodies [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1986
A monoclonal antibody directed against the circumsporozoite protein on the surface of Plasmodium berghei sporozoites inhibited sporozoite motility in vitro. These immobilized sporozoites could adhere to but not invade target cultured cells. Other sporozoite-immobilizing agents also inhibited sporozoite invasion into cultured cells and did not prevent ...

SBF-SEM imaging of sporozoite rhoptries.

, 2022
A-B. SBF-SEM sections of the apical end of an intracellular untreated (wt) ama1cKO sporozoite. In A, two full rhoptries are visible, indicated by white arrows. In B, a different section of the same parasite reveals an empty rhoptry (black arrow). C.

Identification of Plasmodium GAPDH epitopes for generation of antibodies that inhibit malaria infection

Life Science Alliance, 2018
This study reports on the identification of two Plasmodium GAPDH epitope peptides that are responsible for sporozoite–Kupffer cell interaction and act as antigens against malaria infection.

Key Limitations and New Insights Into the Toxoplasma gondii Parasite Stage Switching for Future Vaccine Development in Human, Livestock, and Cats

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Toxoplasmosis is a parasitic disease affecting human, livestock and cat. Prophylactic strategies would be ideal to prevent infection. In a One Health vaccination approach, the objectives would be the prevention of congenital disease in both women and ...

Preparing for Transmission: Gene Regulation in Plasmodium Sporozoites

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Plasmodium sporozoites are transmitted to mammals by anopheline mosquitoes and first infect the liver, where they transform into replicative exoerythrocytic forms, which subsequently release thousands of merozoites that invade erythrocytes and initiate ...

Plasmodium berghei Kinesin-5 Associates With the Spindle Apparatus During Cell Division and Is Important for Efficient Production of Infectious Sporozoites

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Kinesin-5 motors play essential roles in spindle apparatus assembly during cell division, by generating forces to establish and maintain the spindle bipolarity essential for proper chromosome segregation.
