Project description:Healthy Kenyan children with (n=10) or without (n=14) a previous history of complicated Plasmodium falciparum infection had aliquots of their whole-blood cultured ex-vivo and either mock infected or infected with Plasmodium falciparum (A4 strain) for 5 (n=24) and 9 hours (n=11). A clinical history design type is where the organisms clinical history of diagnosis, treatments, e.g. vaccinations, surgery etc. Time: lenght of co-culture Infection: whole-blood cells cultured ex-vivo in the presence of either uninfected red blood cells or red blood cells infected with Plasmodium falciparum Disease State: Healthy individuals with (PrevHxMal) or without (NoHxMal) previous exposure to complicated Plasmodium falciparum infection

Project description:Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes can often show differential drug responses depending on their stage of development. Here, the transcriptomic response of early stage (Stage II-III) and late stage (Stage IV-V) gametocytes was evaluated following treatment with chemical compounds that show differential killing activity between early and late-stage gametocytes.
Project description:The purpose of this research is to identify and evaluate the global gene expression of the rodent malaria parasites Plasmodium yoelii, Plasmodium berghei and Plasmodium chabaudi blood-stage parasites and specifically compare the blood stage gene expression profiles of samples derived from previous studies on Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium knowlesi
Project description:Epigenetic mechanisms have been poorly understood in Plasmodium falciparum, the causative agent of malaria. To elucidate stage specific epigenetic regulations in P. falciparum, we performed genome-wide mapping of various histone modifications, nucleosomes and RNA Polymerase II. Our comprehensive analysis suggest that transcription initiation and elongation are distinct in Plasmodium. In this study, by analyzing histone modifications, nucleosome occupancy and RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) at three different IEC developmental stages of Plasmodium; ring, trophozoite and schizont, we tried to unravel the epigenetic mechanism associated with gene regulation. Examination of H3K27me3, H3K4me3, H3K9me3, H3K14ac, H3K4me1, H3K79me3, H3K27ac, H3K4me2, H3K9ac, H4ac, RNA Pol II and Histone H3 at three different stages of Plasmodium falciparum
