Transgenic selection and underlying mechanisms in apicomplexan parasites
Transgenic selection markers have driven genetic engineering in apicomplexans, enabling precise, iterative experiments. This review discusses mechanistic details of drug selection markers, strategies for marker recycling, and practical considerations for several clinically relevant parasites.

Nutrient Sensing and Growth Control in Plasmodium: Beyond mTOR Signaling
Plasmodium parasites lack the canonical mTOR kinase and associated signaling complexes, yet retain key mTOR‐like functions. Parasite‐specific nutrient sensors, kinases, and translational regulators coordinate growth, stress adaptation, metabolic plasticity, and developmental decisions through a distributed regulatory network.

COMMON EPITOPES ON EIMERIA-TENELLA SPOROZOITES AND CECAL EPITHELIUM OF CHICKENS [PDF]
Eimeria tenella sporozoites invade the intestinal epithelium at a highly specific site. Certain molecules that were recognized by monoclonal antibody E.TEN 11M-2, which was prepared against E.

Densities of all Anopheles species were approximately comparable across all IRS regimes. No differences observed between treatment regimes regarding species composition of the Anopheles funestus group or An. gambiae complex. This operational pilot demonstrates the practical feasibility of IRS micro‐mosaics, despite the inherent increase in deployment ...

Plasmodium falciparum: Release of circumsporozoite protein by sporozoites in the mosquito vector [PDF]
The release of circumsporozoite (CS) protein by Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites was investigated to identify factors regulating this process within infected Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes.

Hydroxamic Acids as HDAC Inhibitor Drug Leads for Malaria
ABSTRACT Malaria is a global health threat, with an estimated 282 million cases and 610,000 malaria‐associated deaths reported in 2024. Most mortality is due to infection by Plasmodium falciparum parasites, with the highest burden occurring in Sub‐Saharan Africa.

Plasmepsins as Antimalarial Drug Targets—Then, Now, and the Future
ABSTRACT Malaria is a devastating disease caused by Plasmodium parasites. Plasmodium parasites express ten cathepsin D‐like aspartyl proteases, called plasmepsins (PMs). These PMs have diverse roles fulfill diverse functions throughout the parasite's lifecycle, though several exhibit functional redundancies. Among them, PMV, PMIV, and PMX are essential

Killing of Cryptosporidium sporozoites by Lactoferrin [PDF]
Intestinal infection caused by Cryptosporidium is a major contributor to diarrhea morbidity and mortality in young children around the world. Current treatments for children suffering from cryptosporidiosis are suboptimal. Lactoferrin is a glycoprotein found in breast milk.
