Malaria is an ancient disease that continues to cause enormous human morbidity and
mortality. The life cycle of the causative parasite involves multiple tissues in two distinct host …

The sequestration of Plasmodium falciparum–infected red blood cells (irbcs) in the
microvasculature of organs is associated with severe disease; correspondingly, the …

Malaria and COVID-19 may have similar aspects and seem to have a strong potential for
mutual influence. They have already caused millions of deaths, and the regions where …

To establish infection in the host, malaria parasites export remodeling and virulence proteins
into the erythrocyte. These proteins can traverse a series of membranes, including the …

Malaria parasites secrete proteins across the vacuolar membrane into the erythrocyte,
inducing modifications linked to disease and parasite survival. We identified an 11–amino …

The surfaces of the infected erythrocyte (IE) and the merozoite, two developmental stages of
malaria parasites, expose antigenic determinants to the host immune system. We report on …

Although malaria and Epstein–Barr (EBV) infection are recognized cofactors in the genesis
of endemic Burkitt lymphoma (BL), their relative contribution is not understood. BL, the most …

Chimpanzees are the closest evolutionary cousins of humans, sharing> 99% identity in most
protein sequences. Plasmodium falciparum is the major worldwide cause of malaria …

Modifications of the Plasmodium falciparum–infected red blood cell (iRBC) surface have
been linked to parasite-associated pathology. Such modifications enable the parasite to …

Background The risk factors and co‐factors for sporadic childhood BL are unknown. We
investigated demographic and age‐specific characteristics of childhood BL (0–14 years) in …
