The hemoglobins S and C protect carriers from severe Plasmodium falciparum malaria. Here,
we found that these hemoglobinopathies affected the trafficking system that directs parasite…

To the Editor—The recent breakthroughs in the development of optical nanoscopy have
provided unprecedented views of the inner workings of cells. Stimulated emission depletion (…

Capitalizing on CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing techniques and super-resolution nanoscopy,
we explore the role of the small GTPase ARF1 in mediating transport steps at the Golgi. …

Fast and effective detection of the causative agent of malaria in humans, protozoan Plasmodium
parasites, is of crucial importance for increasing the effectiveness of treatment and to …

Reorganization of host red blood cells by the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum enables
their sequestration via attachment to the microvasculature. This artificially increases the …

Human babesiosis is an emerging tick-borne disease caused by apicomplexan parasites of
the genus Babesia. Clinical cases caused by Babesia duncani have been associated with …

Malaria is a potentially deadly disease. However, not every infected person develops severe
symptoms. Some people are protected by naturally occurring mechanisms that frequently …

The life cycle of malaria parasites in both their mammalian host and mosquito vector consists
of multiple developmental stages that ensure proper replication and progeny survival. The …

In the presence of high abundance of exogenous fatty acids, cells either store fatty acids in
lipid droplets or oxidize them in mitochondria. In this study, we aimed to explore a novel and …

The haemoglobinopathies S and C protect carriers from severe P lasmodium falciparum
malaria. We have recently shown that haemoglobin S and C interfere with host‐actin …
