Abstract:

 
 
 
 Malaria is a serious illness caused by the Plasmodium parasite, which places approximately 3.5 billion people at risk. Currently, preventative measures are key in combatting this disease. However, gene therapy is an emerging field that shows promising results for the treatment of malaria, by modifying cells through the delivery of genetic material. Most notable was the discovery of CRISPR-Cas9, which not only allows deleterious mutations to be repaired, but does so with specificity, speed, and simplicity. There are numerous ongoing trials focusing on gene therapy in

Abstract:
Malaria parasites invade red blood cells (RBCs), consume copious amounts of hemoglobin, and severely disrupt iron regulation in humans. Anemia often accompanies malaria disease; however, iron supplementation therapy inexplicably exacerbates malarial infections. Here we found that the iron exporter ferroportin (FPN) was highly abundant in RBCs, and iron supplementation suppressed its activity. Conditional deletion of the Fpn gene in erythroid cells resulted in accumulation of excess intracellular iron, cellular damage, hemolysis, and increased fatality in malaria-infected mice.

Abstract:
Background: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary illness that is prevalent in malaria-prone locations. In these endemic locations, it has historically been linked to high rates of childhood death. This shows that SCD patients with malaria should start effective anti-malarial medication very away. Proguanil was a suitable chemoprophylaxis treatment for these individuals to reduce the prevalence of asymptomatic parasitization and avoid malaria. Sulphadoxine-Pyrimethamine Intermittent Preventive Treatment (IPT) has also demonstrated significant promise in lowering malaria and anemia incidenc

Abstract:
Evolution and spread of malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum capable of evading antimalarials are the prime concern to malaria control. The currently effective drug, artemisinin (ART), is under threat due to detection of ART-resistant P. falciparum parasites in the Southeast Asian countries. It has been shown that amino acid (AA) mutations at the P. falciparum Kelch13 (Pfk13) gene provide resistance to ART. Nigeria, a part of the Sub-Saharan Africa, is highly endemic to malaria, contributing quite significantly to malaria, and resistance to chloroquine (CQ) and sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP)

When chloroquine was switched to ACT, it is very likely that there will be an increase in wild type strains (pfcrt K76) due to the absence of exposure to chloroquine. Currently chloroquine has not used for malaria treatment.

It has been suspected that the diminishing efficacy of artemisinin-based combination therapies, which are presently the primary therapy for malaria globally, is causing people most especially in northern Nigeria to resort to using alternative antimalarials. To bolster evidence- based strategies for managing resistance, Scientists studied mutations linked to antimalarial resistance in the pfmdr1 gene of Plasmodium falciparum. The study involved the recruitment of one hundred adult malaria patients. Blood samples were examined via microscopy to ascertain the presence of the malaria parasite. The
