endothelium is conferred through the parasite-derived virulence factor PfEMP1, the major contributor to malaria severity. PfEMP1 located at knob structures on the erythrocyte surface is anchored to the cytoskeleton

complex than governed by a single major gene. Such host genetic variation in responses to specific malaria antigens has implications for immuno-epidemiology and vaccine development
MAHRP2, an exported protein of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em>, is an essential component of Maurer's cleft tethers (Publications)
Summary Upon invasion into erythrocytes, the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum must refurbish the host cell. The objective of this study was to elucidate the location and function of MAHRP2 in these

group, and consensus characteristics were defined. The working group defined non-severely ill, non-malaria infected children as the target population for the desired assay. To provide access to the most patients
3D imaging of undissected optically cleared <em>Anopheles stephensi </em>mosquitoes and midguts infected with <em>Plasmodium</em> parasites (Publications)
Malaria is a life-threatening disease, caused by Apicomplexan parasites of the Plasmodium genus. The Anopheles mosquito is necessary for the sexual replication of these parasites and for their transmission
New acyl derivatives of 3-aminofurazanes and their antiplasmodial activities (Publications)
An N-acylated furazan-3-amine of a Medicines for Malaria Venture (MMV) project has shown activity against different strains of Plasmodium falciparum. Seventeen new derivatives were prepared and tested
<em>Plasmodium berghei </em>subunit vaccine: repeat synthetic peptide of circumsporozoite protein comprising T- and B-cell epitopes fails to confer... (Publications)
In the murine malaria model induced by Plasmodium berghei, we studied the immunogenicity of the repeat region of the circumsporozoite (CS) protein, which is the main target of the antibody response in
