According to the study world’s leading mosquito borne illnesses; and infects tens of millions across the globe annually. The World Mosquito Program (WMP) has pioneered a method where male and female Aedes Aegypti mosquitoes are infected with the disease-resistant bacteria called Wolbachia before being released into the wild. But one group of scientists is rolling…
Scientists have revealed how the typhoid toxin works to hijack DNA repair machines and accelerate the aging of cells; a breakthrough that could pave the way for new strategies to combat the killer disease. Using fluorescent microscopes to study how the toxin damaging the DNA at the molecular level, they discovered it induces a peculiar…
According to the study, the researchers have come one step closer to understanding; that how the immune system responding to the acute dengue fever; a disease that has affected hundreds of thousands of people in Southeast Asia this summer alone. But the research study showing that so-called natural killer cells were especially active shortly after…
According to the study by comparing needles and syringes to disease-carrying mosquitoes; an innovative mathematical model of how the Hepatitis C virus; spreads is offering scientists new perspectives on how best to prevent its proliferation. The insights offered by the model are of particular importance in the context of the nation’s opioid epidemic and the…
As the study showing the protozoan disease visceral leishmaniasis (VL) has recently expanded to places where it had not previously been reported and has expanded its geographic distribution within countries where it was already endemic. The study describing three dispersion routes that have moved Leishmania infantum into and through central-Southern Brazil, helping shed light on…
A new model study system using the red blood cells to study malaria invasion; were the new model system that using red blood cells grown in the laboratory; to study how malaria parasites invading the red blood cells. Study providing a powerful new research tool for the identification of key host proteins and their domains…
Due to the wide spread of mosquitoes which spreading malaria; this developing an new study were researchers suggesting; that lining clothes with graphene could prevent the spread of malaria, as mosquitoes are not able to pick up on chemical signals from the body; that encourage them to bite. Graphene also acting as a physical barrier…
Due to the large outbreaks and threats occuring by malaria; scientists join hands to protect Australia from growing threat of infectious disease. Initiating better protect and rapidly respond to the growing global risk of emergent infectious diseases which can spread to humans through animals and insects. Increased surveillance of wildlife, improving disease monitoring; and more…
According to the study data this is showing that lyme threat; in West largely due to Eastern ticks. Even more surprising is that tick test orders from Californians now edges out tick test requests from traditionally endemic states with smaller populations such as Vermont, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut. The 11-year passive surveillance data reporting…
As per the study researchers predicting that the stability of mosquito borne disease prevention; to reduce transmission of dengue to humans, scientists have introduced Wolbachia bacteria to A. aegypti mosquitoes. By finding ability to block virus transmission may be maintaining by natural selection; alleviating concern that this benefit could diminish over time. The results of…
As continent wide genomic study of malaria parasites in Africa, scientists have uncovered the genetic features of Plasmodium falciparum parasites that inhabit different regions of the continent; including the genetic factors that confer resistance to anti-malarial drugs. This sheds new light on the way that drug resistance is emerging in different locations and moving by…
The study showing individual malaria parasite behaviour across each stage of its complicated life cycle has been creating by scientists. Researchers used advanced single-cell technology; to isolate individual parasites and measure their gene activity. The result is the Malaria Cell Atlas, which gives the highest resolution view of malaria parasite gene expression to date; and…
