The study reveals that ARK1 controls spindle formation during malaria parasite division. Blocking this protein disrupted ...

Scientists have uncovered a crucial weakness in the malaria parasite that could open the door to new treatments. Researchers identified a protein called Aurora-related kinase 1 (ARK1) that acts like a ...

It infects nearly one-third of the global population, yet its microscopic size makes the parasite difficult for scientists to study. That parasite is Toxoplasma gondii, a widespread organism that ...

“Our discovery reveals a parasite that is more sophisticated than we originally believed it to be.” Studying hundreds of infected ants in the Bidstrup Forests, in Denmark, scientists painstakingly ...

Explore the latest breakthrough in malaria drugs targeting a unique protein essential for the parasite's survival and transmission.

You can take certain steps to lower your chances of becoming an unwitting host to one of these nasties. Practicing basic ...

A new study sheds light on how parasites, often overlooked, can dramatically affect the balance between predator and prey populations. Researchers developed a groundbreaking mathematical framework ...

The International Malaria Conference 2026, hosted by ICMR-NIMR in New Delhi, successfully concluded. It brought global experts together to discuss innovations and strategies for malaria elimination, ...

Scientists have found that a special component in some people's blood provides them with natural protection against malaria. A recent study has demonstrated that a genetic variant named rs112233623-T ...

For the first time the developmental stages of the deadliest human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, have been mapped in high resolution, allowing scientists to better understand this ...

Scientists find ARK1 protein vital for malaria parasite division; disabling it halts replication and transmission, offering a ...
