Abstract:
In this thesis, three aspects of parasite life history were investigated: the trade-off between asexual growth and reproduction, the virulence of infections and the sex ratio of transmission stages. All three, and the frequency of mixed infections in a population itself, are fundamentally linked to the transmission and pathology of malaria, the reduction of which is the aim of all current control programmes.

Abstract:
Despite over a century of research, malaria parasites (Plasmodium) still remain a major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. In recent years, the application of theoretical principles from ecology and evolutionary biology to the study of these parasites has started to provide insight into variety of fundamental subjects from the evolution of virulence to the facultative strategies (i.e. phenotypic plasticity) that parasites use to maximize their transmission. It is now becoming increasingly clear that to understand and predict population level patterns of virulence and transmission, the

Abstract:
This thesis focuses on the determinants of virulence in single and mixed-clone malaria infections, and the consequent impact of these infections for host- and parasite-fitness. Controlled experiments were conducted using a rodent model of malarial disease, <i>Plasmodium chabaudi. </i>Mice were infected with precise numbers of virulent and avirulent parasites. In the mixtures, known ratios of two clones that differed in virulence were used. Virulence was quantified in terms of host morbidity and mortality. Experiments investigating how virulence is determined in mixtures revealed that both the

Malaria is widely perceived as immunosuppressive. Despite extensive phenomenological description, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly described. The aim of this thesis was to identify possible mechanisms by which malaria modifies host defence, and to determine the importance of these mechanisms in a translational system moving from a mouse model to human malaria. The most frequently cited immunological consequences of malaria are: suppression of vaccine responses, susceptibility to bacterial infection, susceptibility to endemic Burkitt lymphoma, and increased HIV viral load.

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.

In order to study the immunological responses during malaria and bacterial co-infections, we established a co-infection mouse model.

Malaria is the most important parasitic disease in man and it kills approximately 2,000 people each day. Pregnant women are especially vulnerable to malaria with increased incidence and mortality rates. There are indications that pregnancy alters the pharmacokinetic properties of many antimalarial drugs. This is worrisome as lower drug exposures might result in lowered efficacy and lower drug exposures can also accelerate the development and spread of resistant parasites.

Infection with the Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasite results in an immune response which includes the production of antibodies against the blood-stage of infection. In recent years there has been an increase in the use of serological data to monitor malaria transmission intensity.

Serology has been shown to be particularly useful in areas of low endemicity where traditional measures (EIR and parasite prevalence) are problematic. Transmission intensity in this case is usually d

In the present study we tested whether co-infection with closely related fungal brood-pathogen species that are either specialists or non-specialist results in higher host mortality than infections wit

NMFIs pose challenges to peripheral health systems such that they are clinically under-diagnosed while malaria remains over-diagnosed.

Abstract:
Introduction: Malaria and curable sexually transmitted and reproductive tract infections (STIs/RTIs) are important causes of adverse birth outcomes (ABO) and are both prevalent in most parts of sub-Saharan Africa. From a public health perspective, control of these infections requires interventions that are part of an integrated antenatal care package. The extent to which there may be coinfection increases the importance of such an integrated approach to reduce ABO. A systematic review and meta-analysis published in 2012 showed that the prevalence of malaria and curable STIs/RTIs among antenata

Abstract:
The innate immune system is a multicomponent response governed by intricate mechanisms of induction, regulation and resolution to elicit antimicrobial defenses. In recent years, the complexity of eukaryotic transcriptomes has become the subject of intense scrutiny and curiosity. It has been established, that RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcribes hundreds to thousands of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), often in a stimulus and cell-type specific manner. However, the functional significance of these transcripts has been particularly controversial. While the number of identified lncRNAs is growing
