Malaria parasite caught in action on film for the first time

news-medical.net — “Australian researchers have managed to take pictures of microscopic malaria parasite as it invades a human red blood cell. This will provide a deeper understanding of the parasite--™s behaviour and may help fight it. Up to 10% of the world--™s population contract malaria every year and a million people, mostly pregnant women and children, die as a result of the parasite transmitted by infected mosquitoes.View full resource at news-medical.net

Extreme Genetic Variability In Malaria Parasite Found

sciencedaily.com — “Researchers have charted the extreme genetic differences that occur in the most dangerous malaria parasite in the world. The study suggests that developing a broadly protective vaccine for malaria may be challenging because the parasite's genetic makeup is so variable. Drug-resistant malaria has been a major barrier to treatment, and this study suggests that "vaccine-resistant" malaria may also become a problem.View full resource at sciencedaily.com

Scientists characterize protein essential to survival of malaria parasite

sciencedaily.com — “A biology lab has successfully cracked the structure of an enzyme made by Plasmodium falciparum, the parasitical protozoan that causes the most lethal form of malaria. Plasmodium cannot live without the enzyme, which is uses to make cell membrane. Because people don't make this enzyme, it is an ideal target for an anti-malarial drug. Such a drug might kill Plasmodium but have minimal side effects for people.View full resource at sciencedaily.com
