As existing drugs falter because of resistance, the world gets a backup—but hard choices loom on how to use it

Plasmodium falciparum accumulation at the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a hallmark of cerebral malaria, a life-threatening complication. Conversely, the contribution of the immune response to vascular ...

Fever, a universal host defense in infection and inflammation, paradoxically contributes to neurological complications in malaria. While febrile temperatures enhance the expression of parasite virulen...

Nature Communications - Here the authors show that Plasmodium falciparum egress products disrupt endothelial barrier and activate JAK-STAT and interferon type response in a 3D blood-brain barrier...

An arrayed microscopy-based CRISPR screen revealed host genes affecting multiple infection phenotypes of the intracellular parasite Cryptosporidium. Hits in the host cholesterol biosynthesis pathway a...

Microphysiological systems (MPS) replicate the dynamic interactions between cells, tissues, and fluids. They have emerged as transformative tools for biology and have been increasingly applied to host...

The exploration of the cell biological aspects of nervous system development, function and health continues delivering groundbreaking pieces of information that push forward our understanding of brai…

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Meetings & Courses -- a private, non-profit institution with research programs in cancer, neuroscience, plant biology, genomics, bioinformatics.

A subset of astrocytes expressing Dmp1 helps maintain blood-brain barrier by transferring mitochondria to endothelial cells.

El grup liderat per Maria Bernabeu a l’EMBL Barcelona ha creat microvasos cerebrals en un xip per provar anticossos contra proteïnes virulentes i observar els seus efectes.

Two broadly reactive and inhibitory human monoclonal antibodies against the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum have been characterized, providing insights into immunity, prevention and treatm...
