Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 5, March 2026.ABSTRACT Malaria, a febrile disease caused by the Plasmodium parasites and transmitted by mosquitoes, is a leading cause of mortality in children under 5 in endemic countries. The widespread deployment of insecticide‐treated bed nets (ITNs) has significantly reduced malaria transmission, but rising levels of insecticide resistance threaten to halt the ...

Plasmodium sporozoites induce regulatory macrophages
PLOS Pathogens, 2020 Professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs), like macrophages (Mϕs) and dendritic cells (DCs), are central players in the induction of natural and vaccine-induced immunity to malaria, yet very little is known about the interaction of SPZ with human APCs.

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 ...

Taxonomy of North American fish Eimeriidae [PDF]
, 1984 Taxonomic descriptions, line drawings, and references are given for the 30 named and 5 unnamed species of North American fish Eimeriidae. In addition, a key was developed based on available morphologic data to distinguish between similar species.

Clathrins Are Involved in the Endocytosis of Host Cytosol in the Malaria Parasite
Traffic, Volume 27, Issue 1, March 2026.This study characterized clathrin function in hemoglobin uptake from host red blood cells via the malaria parasite's specific endocytosis machinery, cytostome. Clathrin heavy chain, clathrin light chain, and AP‐1 γ subunit were found associated with certain proteins known to be involved in cytostome function, and they were localized at the collars of ...

In vitro inhibitory activities of sugarcane extract on avian Eimeria sporozoites
International Journal for Parasitology: Drugs and Drug Resistance, 2021 The current in vitro study aimed to investigate the effects of a processed sugarcane extract on the viability of avian Eimeria sporozoites. Treatments were applied to hatched sporozoites: 1) without additives (no-treatment control); 2) with ethanol; 3 ...

Next‐Generation Bio‐Reducible Lipids Enable Enhanced Vaccine Efficacy in Malaria and Primate Models
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 11, 5 February 2026.Structure–activity relationship (SAR) optimization of bio‐reducible ionizable lipids enables the development of highly effective lipid nanoparticle (LNP) mRNA vaccines. Lead LNPs show superior tolerability and antibody responses in rodents and primates, outperforming approved COVID‐19 vaccine lipids.
