Genomic Insights Into Host Shifts Between Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium simium in Latin America

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Malaria in Latin America is largely caused by Plasmodium vivax, but the closely related monkey parasite Plasmodium simium has recently been observed in humans, thus raising new public health concerns. By screening 719 monkey samples from five Latin America countries, we identified 23 Plasmodium‐positives.

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

International Journal of Immunogenetics, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 371-378, December 2025.
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,
