Article Synopsis
  • Advancements in proteomics are creating new diagnostic and treatment opportunities for diseases like malaria, which affects about half of the world’s population and poses a significant infectious disease risk.
  • The study analyzed plasma samples from healthy donors and malaria patients using various techniques, leading to the discovery of elevated levels of α1-antichymotrypsin (AACT) in vivax malaria patients.
  • This finding indicates that AACT could serve as a potential biomarker for diagnosing vivax and falciparum malaria, as its levels were not increased in patients with other mosquito-borne diseases.

Parasitic diseases remain an unarguable public health problem worldwide. Liver fluke Clonorchis sinensis is a high risk pathogenic parasitic helminth which is endemic predominantly in Asian countries, including Korea, China, Taiwan, Vietnam, and the far eastern parts of Russia, and is still actively transmitted. According to the earlier 8th National Survey on the Prevalence of Intestinal Parasitic Infections in 2012, C.

From biological and genetic standpoints, centromeres play an important role in the delivery of the chromosome complement to the daughter cells at cell division. The positions of the centromeres of potato were determined by half-tetrad analysis in a 4x-2x population where the male parent produced 2n pollen by first-division restitution (FDR). The genetic linkage groups and locations of 95 male parent-derived amplified fragment length polymorphism markers could be determined by comparing their position on a 2x-2x highly saturated linkage map of potato.
