An international team of neurobiologists has developed a way to use a parasite to deliver protein therapies through the blood–brain barrier to treat nerve cell disorders. In their study published in ...
An international team of scientists has shed light on the development of the malaria parasite and has identified a unique protein essential for its survival and transmission, which offers a promising ...
Malaria remains a persistent public health burden, with Plasmodium falciparum causing the most dangerous form of malaria and the most lethal infections. Its capacity to develop resistance to current ...
Scientists have uncovered a crucial weakness in the malaria parasite that could open the door to new treatments. Researchers identified a protein called Aurora-related kinase 1 (ARK1) that acts like a ...

Researchers have discovered how a parasite that causes malaria when transmitted through a mosquito bite can hide from the body's immune system, sometimes for years. It turns out that the parasite, ...
A bacterial parasite can infiltrate the nuclei of deep-sea mussels, take control of the cell and reproduce to over 80,000 cells, all while the host is alive. Now, we know how. Researchers at the Max ...
Researchers studying the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum have discovered a previously unknown stage in its life cycle that appears to be crucial for reproduction. This is important because ...
