Malaria transmission-blocking vaccines: the bonus of effective malaria control.

Abstract:

:Reduction of transmission is important for effective malaria control. Standard microscopic detection grossly underestimates the human transmission reservoir. Malaria transmission intensity is defined by local and focal conditions. Transmission-blocking vaccines may be effective by directly targeting identified hot spots of transmission.

  • Antigenic variation in babesiosis: is there more than one 'why'?

    abstract::Many intraerythrocytic hemoparasites survive the host immune system through rapid antigenic variation. Among babesial parasites antigenic variation has been demonstrated convincingly only for Babesia bovis and Babesia rodhaini. The molecular basis for antigenic variation in babesial parasites and its possible connecti...
