Selection and reversal of <em>Plasmodium berghei</em> resistance in the mouse model following repeated high doses of artemether (Publications)
Artemether, a derivative of artemisinin, is effectively used for the treatment of malaria without any clinically relevant resistance to date. Artemether has also been developed as an antischistosomal agent
Insecticide susceptibility of <em>Anopheles </em>mosquitoes changes in response to variations in the larval environment (Publications)
Insecticide resistance threatens the success achieved through vector control in reducing the burden of malaria. An understanding of insecticide resistance mechanisms would help to develop novel tools and strategies
Target product profile for a diagnostic assay to differentiate between bacterial and non-bacterial infections and reduce antimicrobial overuse in... (Publications)
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
Indole and benzimidazole bichalcophenes: synthesis, DNA binding and antiparasitic activity (Publications)
their antimicrobial activity against the tropical parasites causing African sleeping sickness and malaria. The dicyanoindoles needed to synthesize the target diamidines were obtained through Stille coupling
Screening medicinal plants for the detection of novel antimalarial products applying the inhibition of beta-hematin formation (Publications)
identification of novel scaffolds for the development of effective and safe treatments to fight malaria is urgently needed. One of the main opportunities is the discovery of new molecules from natural
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
<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
<em>In vitro</em> assessment of the pharmacodynamic properties and the partitioning of OZ277/RBx-11160 in cultures of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> (Publications)
OBJECTIVES: Using synchronous cultures of Plasmodium falciparum malaria, the stage sensitivity of the parasite to OZ277 (RBx-11160), the first fully synthetic antimalarial peroxide that has entered Phase
Inclusion of health in impact assessment: a review of current practice in sub-Saharan Africa (Publications)
health determinants and included health outcomes were often limited to a few aspects, such as HIV, malaria and injuries. The miniscule yield of reports (1.6% of contacted projects) and the low response rate
Enrichment of a single clone from a high diversity library of phage-displayed antibodies by panning with<em> Anopheles gambiae </em>(Diptera:... (Publications)
suggest that the selection of sufficiently diverse antibody panels, from which mosquitocidal or malaria transmission-blocking antibodies can be isolated, may require improved selection methods or specifically
