…om, men det er netop hvad en videreudvikling af artemisiner kan gøre. Det var derfor fuldt fortjent at Youyou Tu fra Kina modtog Nobel prisen 2015 for hendes opdagelse i 1970’erne at Artemisia annua fra traditionel kinesisk medicin havde effekt på malaria. De første kliniske forsøg blev udført i 1973 og længe var det vanskeligt at have adgang til disse lægemidler udenfor Kina. Nu har anvendelsen af intravenøs artesunate imidlertid erstattet kinin og er blevet standard i Europa ved svær malari…

Conventional natural killer (cNK) cells play an important role in the innate immune response by directly killing infected and malignant cells and by producing pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines. Studies on their role in malaria and its complications have resulted in conflicting results. . . . Methods. Using the commonly used anti-NK1.1 depletion antibodies (PK136) in an in-house optimized…

However, common approaches to measuring mobility are ill-equipped for remote regions such as the Amazon. This study develops a network survey to quantify the effect of community connectivity and mobility on malaria transmission. . Methods. We measure community connectivity across the study area using a respondent driven sampling design among key informants who are at least 18 yea…

. Abstract. . Background. While Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax cause the majority of malaria cases and deaths, infection by Plasmodium malariae and other Plasmodium species also causes morbidity and mortality. Current understanding of these infections is limited in part by existing point-of-care diagnostics that fail to differentiate them and have poor sensitivity for low-density infections. Accurate diagnosis cu…

Recently, Day et al. identified a receptor-binding site on the malaria parasite protein PfCyRPA that binds the host sugar Neu5Ac, and they found that disrupting this interaction impedes parasite growth. A map of the receptor-binding site identifies an attractive target for antimalarial vaccines and therapeutics.

Malaria is a major life-threatening vector-borne disease caused by the genus Plasmodium. It is common in the tropics and subtropics, especially in Africa, where considerable efforts are made to reduce its incidence, and to eliminate it from endemic countries as well as preventing its re-emergence in countries that have been declared malaria-free. To date 104 countries, including Kazakhstan, have reached the status of being malaria-free [1]. Nonetheless, in 2022, 84 malaria endemic countries had an estimated…
