DOI: 10.1002/cpt.2273
Abstract: Intermittent preventive treatment in pregnancy with sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (IPTp-SP) to prevent malaria and adverse birth outcomes is threatened by Plasmodium falciparum resistance to sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine. We investigated the effectiveness of intermittent preventive treatment in pregnancy with monthly… read more here.

Malaria exposure drives both cognate and bystander human B cells to adopt an atypical phenotype
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "European journal of immunology"
DOI: 10.1002/eji.201948473
Abstract: Atypical memory B cells (aMBCs) are found in elevated numbers in individuals exposed to malaria. A key question is whether malaria induces aMBCs as a result of exposure to Ag, or non-Ag-specific mechanisms. We identified… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00436-019-06213-0
Abstract: The Asian malaria mosquito, Anopheles stephensi, is a well-known and important vector of Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax. Until 2013, its geographical distribution was confined to central and southern Asia including the Arabian Peninsula. In… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00436-019-06427-2
Abstract: C57BL/6 mice infected with Plasmodium berghei ANKA (PbA) develop neurological symptoms and die 6-–7-day post-inoculation in the absence of high parasitemia. The effects of chronic intake of a high-fat diet on this process are largely… read more here.
