Paul Roepe: Testing the Killing Power of Anti-Malarial Drugs - News - Georgetown University Medical Center (GUMC)
gumc.georgetown.edu — “In 2004, Paul Roepe, PhD, described his groundbreaking research on an assay for malaria as “stupidly simple,” and this year, he used the phrase again to describe another sweet piece of science. This assay, recently adopted by the U.S. military as well as by malaria research labs around the world, is able to rapidly measure whether a new formula will effectively slow the growth of malarial parasites.” View full resource at gumc.georgetown.edu

Novel anti-malarial drug developed from blood thinner by Australian scientists
news-medical.net — “Malaria caused by a parasite that is borne in female mosquitoes and that spreads in humans through mosquito bites is a major public health problem and it kills more than a million people world wide each year. With the rise of resistance of many of the strains of the malaria parasite to most of the anti-malarial drugs the problem is escalating at an alarming pace.” View full resource at news-medical.net

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

BMC Structural Biology | Abstract | Crystal structures from the Plasmodium peroxiredoxins: new insights into oligomerization and product binding
biomedcentral.com — “Plasmodium falciparum is the protozoan parasite primarily responsible for more than a million malarial deaths, annually, and is developing resistance to current therapies. Throughout its lifespan, the parasite is subjected to oxidative attack, so Plasmodium antioxidant defences are essential for its survival and are targets for disease control.” View full resource at biomedcentral.com

Malaria-infected cells stiffen, block blood flow
sciencedaily.com — “Researchers have completed the first modeling, followed by experiments, of how red blood cells are infected by a malarial parasite that attacks the brain. The researchers report that infected cells stiffen by as much as 50 times more than healthy cells. Infected cells also tend to stick along blood vessel walls, impeding the flow of blood to critical organs.” View full resource at sciencedaily.com
