Abstract:

Background Diseases of the brain are difficult to study because this organ is relatively inaccessible. Only one part of the central nervous system is available to direct, non-invasive observation – the retina. The concept of the retina as a window to the brain has created much interest in the retina as a source of potential markers of brain disease. Paediatric cerebral malaria is a severe neurological complication of infection with the parasite Plasmodium falciparum, which is responsible for death and disability in a significant number of children in sub-Saharan Africa. As with many neurologic

Abstract:

Malaria is a preventable and treatable blood-borne disease whose complications can be fatal. Although many interventions exist in order to reduce the impacts of malaria, the optimal method of distributing these interventions in a geographical area with limited resources must be determined. This thesis refines a model that uses an integer linear program and a compartmental model of epidemiology called an SIR model of ordinary differential equations. The objective of the model is to find an intervention strategy over multiple time steps and multiple geographic regions that minimizes the number o

Background and Methods: Blood transfusion saves lives and improves health but the presence of transfusion transmissible infections can have untoward consequences. When undetected, these infections can cause significant morbidity and mortality to transfusion recipients. On the other hand, a high prevalence of transfusion-transmitted infections (TTI) leading to rejection of a large proportion of donated blood can result in blood shortages and subsequent increase in mortality. Malaria and bacterial infections are transfusion transmissible but there is limited data concerning these infections in s

Abstract:

Controlled human malaria infection (CHMI) studies, where healthy volunteers are infected with Plasmodium falciparum have become a vital tool to accelerate vaccine and drug development. As CHMI trials are carried out in a controlled environment, they allow unprecedented, detailed evaluation of parasite growth dynamics and immunological responses to infection. Though commonly performed in malaria-naïve populations, CHMI trials have rarely been conducted in malaria-endemic regions and to date, have not been used to investigate naturally acquired immunity (NAI) to P. falciparum infection.

Malaria represents one of the oldest documented diseases among humans and even today organisms in the genus Plasmodium kill more people than any other infectious disease, especially in tropical and subtropical areas.

Of these four species, Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax account for 95 percent of infections globally.

Abstract:

Gametocytes, the transmission stage of malaria parasites, are generally rare in infections. I explore whether this may be a parasite adaptation that paradoxically maximises fitness. I present an optimality analysis of gametocyte investment based on a discretely formulated within-host model. I show that low gametocyte investment is predicted as a result of the trade-off that exists between producing gametocytes and increasing parasite numbers. I predict that gametocyte investment should decrease as maximum asexual density occurs later in infections and also as parasite fecundity rises. I addres

Plasmids were constructed to encode C3d/PfEMP-1 fusions and expression of recombinant protein in mammalian cells in culture was assayed. Eukaryotic expression of <i>P. falciparum </i>proteins proved to be problematic and a re-condoning approach was adopted to address this. The production of polyclonal anti-PfEMP-1 antibodies in mice was assessed in immunofluorescence assays and in immunoblots with <i>P. falciparum</i>-infected erythrocytes. The data question the suitability of a DNA vaccine approach in the development of a PfEMP-1-based vaccine using C3d. In order to raise specific antibodies

Abstract:

Epidemiological observations have linked increased host iron with malaria susceptibility. At the same time, blood-stage malaria infection is associated with potentially life-threatening anemia. To improve our understanding of these relationships, this work presents an examination of the mechanisms controlling the upregulation of the hormone hepcidin, the master regulator of iron metabolism, in malaria infection. Chapter 2 presents data from a mouse model of malaria infection which indicate that hepcidin upregulation in malaria infection is associated with increased activity of the sons of moth

The role of IFN in acquisition of immunity against erythrocyte forms of P.c. chabaudi AS was studied. Inbred NIH mice given the construct 7 days before malaria infection, showed a significant delay in the onset and in the level of the recrudescent parasitaemia in comparison with controls. No differences, however, were observed in the recrudescent parasitaemia between the groups. NIH mice infected with malaria 3 days after or on the same day as the administration of the IFN construct, showed a primary peak of infection similar to controls, but the resolution of this patent parasitaemia occurred

Abstract:

Malaria is a disease of global importance, causing hundreds of thousand of deaths a year. The majority or deaths are caused by Plasmodium falciparum, a parasite transmitted by the mosquito Anopheles. Its pathogenicity largely results from an ability to transform infected erythrocytes by creating knob-like structures that result in endothelial adhesion. Two major components of these knob structures have been identified as P. falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1) and knob-associated histidine rich protein (KAHRP). The extracellular fragment of PfEMP1 is responsible for antigenic var
