Mosquito Akirin as a potential antigen for malaria control

  • Autores: A, Costa M, Custodio, de la Fuente J, Domingos A, Moreno-Cid JA, Pinheiro-Silva R, Silveira H, Villar M
  • Ano de Publicação: 2014
  • Journal: Malaria Journal
  • Link: http://www.malariajournal.com/content/13/1/470

Recent evidences using Subolesin (SUB) and Akirin (AKR) vaccines showed a reduction in the survival and/or fertility of blood-sucking ectoparasite vectors and the infection with vector-borne pathogens. These experiments suggested the possibility of using AKR for malaria control.

The role of the immunological background of mice in the genetic variability of Schistosoma mansoni as detected by random amplification of polymorphic DNA

  • Autores: Afonso A, Belo S, Calado M, Cossa-Moiane IL, Ferreira PM, Mauricio I, Mendes T
  • Ano de Publicação: 2014
  • Journal: Journal of Helminthology
  • Link: http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstract?fromPage=online&aid=9992333

Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease caused by flatworms of the genus Schistosoma. Among the Schistosomaspecies known to infect humans, S. mansoni is the most frequent cause of intestinal schistosomiasis in sub-Saharan Africa and South America: the World Health Organization estimates that about 200,000 deaths per year result from schistosomiasis in sub-Saharan Africa alone. The Schistosoma life cycle requires two different hosts: a snail as intermediate host and a mammal as definitive host.

Genetic diversity evaluation on Portuguese Leishmania infantum strains by multilocus microsatellite typing

  • Autores: Campino L, Cardoso L, Cortes S, Kuhls K, Lopes C, Marcos M, Mauricio IL, Nunes M, Schoenian G
  • Ano de Publicação: 2014
  • Journal: Infection Genetics and Evolution
  • Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24815728

Leishmania infantum is the main etiological agent of zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis in the Mediterranean region, including Portugal, but, given its low isoenzyme diversity in this country, the population structure is poorly known. A set of 14 polymorphic microsatellite markers was studied on 136 Portuguese Leishmania strains isolated from different hosts, geographic regions and different clinical forms. A total of 108 different genotypes were found, which is a degree of genetic diversity comparable to other regions, even within zymodeme MON-1.

Glossina palpalis palpalis populations from Equatorial Guinea belong to distinct allopatric clades

  • Autores: Bart J-M, Benito A, Cano J, Cordon-Obras C, Knapp J, Navarro M, Ndong-Mabale N, Ndongo-Asumu P, Nebreda P, Pinto J, Ricardo Ncogo-Ada P
  • Ano de Publicação: 2014
  • Journal: Parasites & Vectors
  • Link: http://www.parasitesandvectors.com/content/7/1/31

Luba is one of the four historical foci of Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT) on Bioko Island, in Equatorial Guinea. Although no human cases have been detected since 1995, T. b. gambiense was recently observed in the vector Glossina palpalis palpalis. The existence of cryptic species within this vector taxon has been previously suggested, although no data are available regarding the evolutionary history of tsetse flies populations in Bioko.
