In vitro culture of Plasmodium berghei-ANKA maintains infectivity of mouse erythrocytes inducing cerebral malaria

Ronan Jambou, Fatima El-Assaad, Valery Combes, Georges E Grau Malaria Journal 2011, 10:346 (25 November 2011)

Abstract | Full text | PDF | PubMed | Cited on BioMed Central |  Editor’s summary

Surprisingly, while Plasmodium falciparum has been grown in vitro for many years, other malaria parasites have always proven much more difficult to adapt. Optimization of the in vitro culture conditions for P. berghei parasites is likely open up the field.

Assessment of exposure to Plasmodium falciparum transmission in a low endemicity area by using multiplex fluorescent microsphere-based serological assays

Jean Sarr, Eve Orlandi-Pradines, Sonia Fortin, Cheikh Sow, Sylvie Cornelie, François Rogerie, Soihibou Guindo, Lassana Konate, Thierry Fusaï, Gilles Riveau, Christophe Rogier, Franck Remoue Parasites & Vectors 2011, 4:212 (7 November 2011)

Abstract | Full text | PDF | PubMed |  Editor’s summary

Biomarkers of exposure to Plasmodium falciparum would be a useful tool for the assessment of malaria transmission intensity. By using a multiplex technology, our results indicated that antibodies to Glurp, Lsa1, Lsa3, and Salsa antigens represent potential surrogates of exposure to malaria in context of low transmission.

Vivax malaria in Mauritania includes infection of a Duffy-negative individual

Nathalie Wurtz, Khadijetou Mint Lekweiry, Hervé Bogreau, Bruno Pradines, Christophe Rogier, Ali Ould Mohamed Salem Boukhary, Jamal Eddine Hafid, Mohamed Salem Ould Ahmedou Salem, Jean-François Trape, Leonardo K Basco, Sébastien Briolant Malaria Journal 2011, 10:336 (3 November 2011)

The paper further documents the susceptibility of individuals previously considered to be resistant to P. vivax infection and disease. Moreover, with previous reports, their findings in Mauritania now illustrate that the capacity of P. vivax to infect Duffy-negatives spans from coastal western Africa to eastern African study locations in Kenya and in Madagascar.
