Abstract:
Aims: Malaria is a life-threatening disease caused by parasites transmitted by bites from infected female anopheles. It is a preventable and treatable illness. It remains a recurring disease among public health diseases that exposes many people to a risk of infection, including children under the age of 05 in Benin. Methods: To determine the prevalence of malaria and different plasmodial species at the Dr Pierre BONI Clinic, we performed venous and capillary samples on 731 patients for the realization of thick drops and blood smears between June and July 2022. Results: Three plasmodial species were identified in 228 patients (31%) as malaria of the 731 patients included in the study with 3 species of plasmodium found: Plasmodium falciparum (95.5%), Plasmodium malariae (2.85%), Plasmodium ovale (1.65%). Mixed or double species was also recorded in some patients: Plasmodium falciparum+ Plasmodium malariae and Plasmodium falciparum+ Plasmodium ovale. The majority of patients have the presence of trophozoites at Plasmodium falciparum, 95.5%. The parasitic density of P. falciparum is higher than that of P. malariae and that of P. ovale. Conclusion: Although evaluated during a period of low transmission, malaria remains a real public health problem. The distribution of the disease is closely related to the presence in the blood of plasmodial species.

Abstract:
Plasmodium falciparum is a protozoan parasite that causes the most severe form of human malaria. Five other Plasmodium species can also infect humans — P. vivax, P. malariae, P. ovale curtisi, P. ovale wallikeri and P. knowlesi — but P. falciparum is the most prevalent Plasmodium species in the African region, where 90% of all malaria occurs, and it is this species that causes the great majority of malaria deaths. These were reported by the WHO at 438 000 in 2015 from an estimated 214 million cases; importantly, however, figures for the global burden of malaria tend to have wide margins of error due to poor and inaccurate reporting. In this Perspective, features of P. falciparum that are unique among human malaria parasites are highlighted, and current issues surrounding the control and treatment of this major human pathogen are discussed.

Abstract:
Artemisinin class of antimalarial drugs play an important role in controlling falciparum malaria after the emergence of resistance of Plasmodium falciparum to other antimalarial drugs such as chloroquine, sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine and mefloquine. Therefore, the presence of Plasmodium falciparum resistance to this class of drugs is threat to global efforts to eliminate this disease. Resistance of Plasmodium falciparum to artemisinin recently known to be associated with mutations in the propeller domain of the kelch-13 (K13) Plasmodium falciparum gene. The incidence of Plasmodium falciparum resistance due to mutations in the K13 gene, among others, can be found in Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, China, Myanmar, Thailand and Africa. The presence of mutations in this gene will change the response of Plasmodium falciparum against oxidative stress induced by artemisinin by involving the proteasome-ubiquitin pathway. In addition, mutation K13 will also change the levels of PI3K and PI3P in the body of Plasmodium falciparum. PI3K and PI3P are lipids that essential for the development of Plasmodium falciparum from ring stage to schizont. Resistance to artemisinin will also provide phenotypic changes in the life cycle of Plasmodium falciparum in the form of elongation at the stage ring and transient shortening in trophozoite development. This resistance incident can be overcome, among others by prolonging the duration of treatment (from a 3-day regimen to a 4-day regimen) and combining artemisinin with proteasome inhibitors.

Abstract:
Emergence of drugs resistant strains of Plasmodium falciparum has augmented the scourge of malaria in endemic areas. Antimalaria drugs act on different intracellular targets. The majority of them interfere with digestive vacuoles (DVs) while others affect other organelles, namely, apicoplast and mitochondria. Prevention of drug accumulation or access into the target site is one of the mechanisms that plasmodium adopts to develop resistance. Plasmodia are endowed with series of transporters that shuffle drugs away from the target site, namely, pfmdr (Plasmodium falciparum multidrug resistance transporter) and pfcrt (Plasmodium falciparum chloroquine resistance transporter) which exist in DV membrane and are considered as putative markers of CQ resistance. They are homologues to human P-glycoproteins (P-gh or multidrug resistance system) and members of drug metabolite transporter (DMT) family, respectively. The former mediates drifting of xenobiotics towards the DV while the latter chucks them outside. Resistance to drugs whose target site of action is intravacuolar develops when the transporters expel them outside the DVs and vice versa for those whose target is extravacuolar. In this review, we are going to summarize the possible pfcrt and pfmdr mutation and their role in changing plasmodium sensitivity to different anti-Plasmodium drugs.

Abstract:
Malaria, caused by infection with intracellular protozoan parasites of the genus Plasmodium, is responsible for 300 to 600 million clinical cases annually (Snow et al., 2005), resulting in the deaths of up to three million people every year (Breman, 2001, Breman et al., 2004). There is a clear need for further research aimed at identifying novel drug targets (Ridley, 2002). Reversible phosphorylation of proteins is a major regulatory mechanism in most cellular processes, and protein kinases are considered promising drug targets, comprising as much as 30% of all protein targets under investigation (Cohen, 2002). The divergences between human and plasmodial protein kinases suggest that specific inhibition of the latter is an achievable goal (Doerig, 2004, Doerig and Meijer, 2007). This study investigates protein kinase CK2 of Plasmodium falciparum, seeking to establish by reverse genetics and biochemical approaches whether it represents a possible antimalarial drug target. Protein-kinase CK2, formerly known as Casein Kinase II, is a dual-specificity (Serine/Threonine and Tyrosine) protein kinase ubiquitously expressed in eukaryotes. It has over 300 cellular substrates catalogued to date (Meggio and Pinna, 2003). Consistent with its multiple substrates, the enzyme plays a crucial role in many cellular processes, and is essential to viability in yeast and slime mould (Padmanabha et al., 1990, Kikkawa et al., 1992). The human CK2 holoenzyme consists of two catalytic a or a’ subunits and two regulatory b subunits, and recent evidence indicates that the latter interact with several protein kinases in addition to CK2a (reviewed in (Bibby and Litchfield, 2005)), pointing to a likely role in the integration of numerous signalling pathways. A putative CK2a orthologue and two predicted CK2b subunits were identified in the P. falciparum genome (Ward et al., 2004, Anamika et al., 2005). Here we present the biochemical characterisation of the PfCK2a orthologue and both PfCK2b orthologues, and demonstrate by using a reverse genetics approach that each of the three subunits is essential for completion of the erythrocytic asexual cycle of the parasite, thereby validating the enzyme as a possible drug target. Recombinant PfCK2a possesses protein kinase activity, exhibits similar substrate and co-substrate preferences to those of CK2a subunits from other organisms, and interacts with both of the PfCK2b subunits in vitro. PfCK2a is amenable to inhibitor screening, and we report differential susceptibility between the human and P. falciparum CK2a enzymes to a small molecule inhibitor. Taken together, the data indicate that PfCK2a is an attractive, validated target for antimalarial chemotherapeutic intervention.

Abstract:
Apicomplexan parasites of the genus Plasmodium are the causative agent of malaria, one of the most prevalent infectious diseases worldwide. Five different Plasmodium species can cause malaria in humans, leading to a total of approximately 500 million cases each year and of these, P. falciparum causes the most deadly form of the disease and is responsible for more than 1 million deaths annually. A major problem in the global fight against malaria is the widespread resistance of the parasites against the currently available drugs. It is of great importance to identify new drug target as well as to understand the mechanisms that lead to drug resistance in the first instance in order to potentially reverse the resistant phenotypes and to avoid the development of resistance in the future. The tripeptide glutathione (GSH) or γ-glutamylcysteinyl-glycine is the most abundant low molecular weight thiol in most eukaryotic organisms and serves a number of important functions as sulfhydryl-buffer, cofactor for enzymes and for the detoxification of xenobiotics and drugs. GSH is an important component of the antioxidant machinery and because malaria parasites live in an environment rich in iron and oxygen and thus increased oxidative stress, they depend on functional antioxidant systems. The biosynthesis pathway for GSH, consisting of γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase (γGCS) and glutathione synthetase (GS) is present in malaria parasites as well as in their host cells. Previous studies have shown that depletion of GSH has an antimalarial effect, but it remained unclear whether parasites were killed directly or died because their host cell could not survive the depletion of GSH. To address this question, the knockout of both genes encoding the enzymes of the GSH biosynthesis pathway in P. falciparum was attempted. While both gene loci were targeted by control constructs, the knockout of either pfγgcs or pfgs was impossible, indicating both genes are essential for parasite survival in the erythrocytic stages. To analyse the localization of γGCS and GS, GFP-tagged recombinant fusion proteins were expressed in the parasites and showed that GSH biosynthesis is cytosolic. Apart form its other functions GSH has previously been suggested to be involved in resistance to the antimalarial drug chloroquine (CQ). CQ was for a long time the first line antimalarial drug due to its high efficiency, low cost and low toxicity, but is now widely inefficient in the treatment of the disease. CQ resistance is associated with mutations in the CQ resistance transporter (PfCRT), a membrane protein of the digestive vacuole that allows the efflux of the drug form its site of action. However, PfCRT mutations alone cannot explain the full array of phenotypes found in resistant parasites. GSH is able to degrade heme, the target of CQ, in vitro and it has been suggested that elevated GSH levels contribute to CQ resistance. However, analyses of isogenic parasite lines bearing different forms of PfCRT in this study revealed lower GSH levels and higher susceptibility to inhibition of GSH biosynthesis in the CQ resistant lines. These changes did not correlate with changes in the expression of enzymes involved in the de novo biosynthesis or consumption of GSH. However, the cellular accumulation ratio for CQ indicated a decrease of free heme in the resistant parasites. Mutant forms of PfCRT expressed in oocytes of Xenopus laevis were able to transport GSH, while the sensitive wild-type form did not transport the tripeptide. The findings of this study suggest that in parasites bearing mutant PfCRT, GSH is transported into the digestive vacuole where it is able to contribute to resistance by degrading heme, before the tripeptide itself is degraded by peptidases inside the vacuole, consistent with the overall reduction of GSH levels in CQ resistant parasites.

Abstract:
Metabolite transport pathways of the malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, are an important area for study in order to further the understanding of the parasite's biology. Identification and characterisation of the transporters involved in these pathways may also provide potential novel drug targets or drug delivery mechanisms. This is especially valuable as chemotherapy remains one of the main management strategies in the fight against malaria and the usefulness 0 f the current range 0 f antimalarial drugs is seriously threatened by the emergence and spread of resistance . .' In this thesis the Xenopus laevis oocyte heterologous expression system was used to functionally characterise a gene-specific cDNA library of 48 putative membrane proteins and the previously annotated putative amino acid transporter PFF1430c for the uptake of several amino acids. This screening failed to identify any definite amino acid transport by the cDNA library or PFF1430c, however this could have been due to the fact that uptake of a relatively narrow range of amino acids was tested and these were used at concentrations lower than found physiologically. Inherent issues with the X laevis expression system may also have been an issue, including the expression of endogenous transporters for the substrates being investigated.

Abstract:
A malária é uma doença endêmica causada pelo parasita Plasmodium que pode ser fatal em muitas regiões do mundo. Alguns pesquisadores estão utilizando conceitos de aprendizagem de máquina para detectar e classificar células infectadas pelo parasita Plasmodium. Este trabalho apresenta um estudo comparativo de três versões recentes da rede neural convolucional You Only Look Once (YOLO), são elas a: YOLOv4, Scaled-YOLOv4 e YOLOv5. Foi utilizado a base de dados MP-IDB que possui 210 imagens com o parasita Plasmodium. Os modelos alcançaram excelentes resultados, tendo o melhor resultado com mAP e precisão de 94,8% e 93,3%, respectivamente, para a classificação em dois tipos de espécies do Plasmodium falciparum e vivax.

Abstract:
Introdução: O Plasmodium é o agente etiológico da malária, e a infecção no hospedeiro vertebrado ocorre envolvendo diferentes células e depende de uma complexidade de eventos celulares e bioquímicos no hospedeiro para realizar o ciclo de desenvolvimento.Os casos de malária reportado pela Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS), ocorrem em países distribuídos ao longo da faixa intertropical do globo terrestre, são áreas com condições favoráveis à ocorrência e desenvolvimento do vetor Anopheles spp. No ano de 2019 ocorreram cerca de 229 milhões de novos casos de malária e 409 mil mortes, crianças menores de 5 anos são mais vulneráveis, representando cerca de 67% de todas as mortes no ano de 2019. Objetivo: Em vista disso, O presente estudo tem finalidade descritiva e através da análise de artigos científicos, avaliar alterações da morfologia hepática e detecção de fibrose nos hospedeiros infectados pelo Plasmodium submetidos ou não aos tratamentos com antimalaricos, observar o ciclo de vida do Plasmodium, como ocorre a infecção no humano da doença malárica, as possíveis alterações morfológicas e fisiopatológicas causadas pela hemozoína no tecido hepático e presença de fibrose. Metodologia: A metodologia utilizada é baseada em artigos científicos de revisão exploratória. Foram selecionados artigos referentes à malária, nos idiomas português e inglês. São artigos levantados por meio de consultas através dos sites acadêmicos PudMed, SciElo, Science Direct, Malaria Journal e WHO, com período de abrangência de 2015 a 2021. Resultados: As alterações fisiopatológicas no fígado do hospedeiro infectado estão relacionadas com o processo inflamatório pela hemozoína e necessitam de estudos para a compreensão da relação parasita x hospedeiro e do potencial comprometimento tecidual hepático. É observado presença de fibrose hepática, células mortas, neoplasias e quadro inflamatório tecidual hepático, desencadeado pela hemozoína, quando não há tratamento para regressão da fibrose hepática e a lesão celular continua sendo persistente, ocorre o desenvolvimento de cirrose, que pode evoluir para carcinoma hepatocelular. Conclusão: A observação das alterações hepática durante e após a infecção da malária é essencial para entender os potenciais danos teciduais hepáticos, avaliar os tratamentos disponíveis e ações preconizadas pela OMS para redução da infecção e óbitos causados pela malária.

Abstract:
Introdução: A malária é uma parasitose que, apesar de antiga, continua sendo um grande risco para saúde pública com cerca de 445 mil mortes por ano ao redor do mundo(2). Apesar de possuir cinco agentes etiológicos, o Plasmodium falciparum é o principal, sendo responsável pelo maior número de mortes por malária(1,2). Uma vez que há diversos empecilhos quando se trata da erradicação da malária como resistência a inseticidas e a drogas antimaláricas, foi observada a necessidade de uma vacina contra o agravamento dessa parasitose(1). O fato de que a fase sanguínea do Plasmodium é atualmente apontada como um dos possíveis alvos para a ação de uma vacina, fez os pesquisadores enxergarem a proteína rica em ácido glutâmico do P. falciparum (PfGARP) que é encontrada na superfície das células vermelhas infectadas pelo parasita(2,3). Assim, fez-se necessária uma pesquisa com os anticorpos contra essa proteína para melhor elucidação. Objetivos: O objetivo deste resumo é observar os efeitos dos anticorpos anti-PfGARP contra trofozoítos do Plasmodium falciparum e como esses anticorpos oferecem proteção contra o agravamento da malária. Métodos: Foi realizada a procura nas plataformas científicas PubMed e Google Acadêmico e os artigos utilizados foram encontrados por meio do descritor “malaria vaccine”. Resultados: Os anticorpos anti-PfGARP presentes nos indivíduos estudados foram apontados como responsáveis pela diminuição da integridade morfológica dos parasitas, onde os mesmos apresentaram-se picnóticos, característicos de morte(3). Além disso, esses anticorpos causaram uma diminuição da integridade do vacúolo digestivo, apresentando-se com um tamanho menor ou até mesmo ausente(3). Outrossim, os parasitas sofreram alterações no potencial de membrana mitocondrial, tendo a mitocôndria perdido função após 24h(3). Por fim, os anticorpos anti-PfGARP ativaram a morte celular programada desses parasitas por meio da ativação de caspases(3). Conclusões: Com base no que foi exposto, é possível concluir que a PfGARP é uma excelente candidata para o desenvolvimento de uma vacina contra o Plasmodium falciparum por meio da morte dos parasitas. Sendo assim, é necessário que sejam realizados mais estudos com a PfGARP com o objetivo de obter mais informações acerca dos benefícios de uma vacina com essa proteína e, ainda, conhecer possíveis malefícios para que possa ser inclusa no mercado de forma eficaz e segura, diminuindo a ocorrência de malária grave e assim evitando o sofrimento de milhares de pessoas infectadas com esta parasitose ao redor do mundo.
