Genetics toolkit targets less researched Culex mosquitoes, which transmit West Nile virus and avian malaria. Since the onset of the CRISPR genetic editing revolution, scientists…
Findings published in Nature offer potential for use by travelers and prevention of malaria in African populations in near future. Researchers from Sanaria® Inc. and…
Recent advancements allow for novel approaches against an old enemy. Scientists from the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research and Naval Medical Research Center partnered…
Researchers compared metabolic responses to human malaria in children of different populations. In 2019, 409,000 people died of malaria–most were young children in sub-Saharan Africa….
Researchers have mapped in fine detail the genetic changes malaria parasites go through as they prepare to infect people. The atlas maps the malaria parasite…
Scientists have discovered that tracking malaria as it develops in humans is a powerful way to detect how the malaria parasite causes a range of…
Genetically modifying mosquitoes to express antimalarial genes and pass them on to their offspring is being tested as a new strategy to eliminate malaria. Altering…
Larvae of a new malaria mosquito species are abundantly present in water containers in cities in Ethiopia. The mosquito, Anopheles stephensi, is the main malaria…
Researchers have discovered a promising new strategy for combating malaria, a mosquito-borne parasite that claims nearly a half-million lives each year. For a study reported…
Despite great efforts in medicine and science, more than 400,000 people worldwide are still dying of malaria. The infectious disease is transmitted by the bite…
Researchers at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine have identified a completely new mechanism by which mosquitoes that carry malaria are becoming resistant to insecticide….
Prototype microscope teaches itself the best illumination settings for diagnosing malaria. Engineers at Duke University have developed a microscope that adapts its lighting angles, colors,…
More than one million people die annually from cerebral malaria, the most lethal form of the disease. A recent study, led by Yale investigators, explores…
Researchers from UCLA and Washington University in St. Louis have discovered the previously unknown mechanism of how proteins from Plasmodium parasites — which cause malaria…
A serum developed by Yale researchers reduces infection from malaria in mice, according to a new study. It works by attacking a protein in the…
Using a gene-editing technique known as CRISPR/Cas9, scientists have shown that inactivating the gene FREP1 reduces mosquitos’ susceptibility to infection with Plasmodium, a genus of…
The most important active ingredient against malaria can now be produced in a considerably more efficient and environmentally friendly way. Researchers at the Max Planck…
