Malian field isolates provide insight into Plasmodium malariae intra-erythrocytic development and invasion.

Plasmodium malariae is the third most prevalent human malaria parasite species and contributes significantly to morbidity. Nevertheless, our comprehension of this parasite's biology remains limited, primarily due to its frequent co-infections with other species and the lack of a continuous in vitro culture system. To effectively combat and eliminate this overlooked parasite, it is imperative to acquire a better understanding of this species.

Age at Menarche Is Associated With Leg-Length Components Among the Adolescent Girls in West Bengal, India.

Background: The relationship between early age at menarche (AAM) and body height (HT), including its different segments has not been extensively studied among non Western populations. Lengths of the lower (distal) part of the leg, such as knee HT (KH) and tibial length (TbL), are considered to be sensitive indicators of living conditions during early growth and development. Life history theory predicts that within a survival challenge the growth of vital parts of the body shall be prioritized over less essential parts.

Protocol for optimizing robot-assisted autism therapy sessions through gaze analysis: A pilot study investigating optimal trial count for children with comorbid autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability.

Background: Autism spectrum disorder poses challenges in social communication and behavior, while Intellectual disabilities are characterized by deficits in cognitive, social, and adaptive skills, frequently accompanied by stereotypies and challenging behaviors. Despite the progress made in autism spectrum disorder research, there is often a lack of research focusing on individuals with co-occurring autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability. Robot-assisted autism therapies are effective in addressing these needs.

Block selection in multiblock partial least squares for modeling genotype-phenotype relations in Saccharomyces.

In data-based modeling, correlations between explanatory variables often lead to the formation of distinct gene blocks. This study focuses on identifying influential gene blocks and key variables within these blocks, with a particular application in mind: genotype-phenotype mapping in Saccharomyces. To overcome the challenges of a limited sample size, we use partial least squares (PLS).

Protective antibodies target cryptic epitope unmasked by cleavage of malaria sporozoite protein.

The most advanced monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and vaccines against malaria target the central repeat region or closely related sequences within the circumsporozoite protein (PfCSP). Here, using an antigen-agnostic strategy to investigate human antibody responses to whole sporozoites, we identified a class of mAbs that target a cryptic PfCSP epitope that is only exposed after cleavage and subsequent pyroglutamylation (pGlu) of the newly formed N terminus. This pGlu-CSP epitope is not targeted by current anti-PfCSP mAbs and is not included in the licensed malaria vaccines.

α-FeO and polypyrrole impregnated alginate/gelatin nanocatalysts for the reduction of azo dyes and persistent organic pollutants.

Herein, we propose magnetic nanocomposites as a powerful new catalyst for organic pollutant reduction. Polypyrrole (PPy) was synthesized in situ within the semi-interpenetrating alginate (Alg)/gelatin (Ge) network in presence of α-FeO as encapsulating matrix and inorganic filler, respectively. The polymeric matrix can act as bifunctional agent such as a binder and stabilizer to improve nanocatalyst stability while preserving their catalytic/magnetic performances.

Unraveling the molecular mechanism of temperature-induced destabilization in the PqsE-RhlR complex of Pseudomonas aeruginosa at mammalian body temperature through classical molecular dynamics and metadynamics.

PqsE and RhlR, key regulators of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum sensing (QS) system, form a hetero-tetrameric complex essential for controlling the expression of virulence factors such as pyocyanin. The interaction between the PqsE homodimer and the RhlR homodimer bound to C4-HSL, enables RhlR to bind low-affinity promoters, thereby influencing gene regulation. Recent studies suggest that RhlR transcriptional activity is modulated by temperature, exhibiting higher activity at environmental temperatures (25 °C) compared to mammalian body temperature (37 °C).

Newborn Screening for Six Primary Conditions in a Clinical Setting in Morocco.

Unlabelled: Newborn screening (NBS) represents an important public health measure for the early detection of specified disorders; such screening can prevent disability and death, not only from metabolic disorders but also from endocrine, hematologic, immune, and cardiac disorders. Screening for critical congenital conditions affecting newborns' health is a great challenge, especially in developing countries such as Morocco, where NBS program infrastructure is lacking. In addition, the consanguinity rate is high in Morocco.
