SNP discovery and molecular evolution in Anopheles gambiae, with special emphasis on innate immune system (2008)

Cohuet, Anna, Krishnakumar, Sujatha, Simard, Frédéric, Morlais, Isabelle, Koutsos, Anastasios, Fontenille, Didier, ...

Abstract Background Anopheles innate immunity affects Plasmodium development and is a potential target of innovative malaria control strategies. The extent and distribution of nucleotide diversity in...

Concentration and purification by magnetic separation of the erythrocytic stages of all human Plasmodiumspecies (2008)

Ribaut, Clotilde, Berry, Antoine, Chevalley, Séverine, Reybier, Karine, Morlais, Isabelle, Parzy, Daniel, ...

Abstract Background Parasite concentration methods facilitate molecular, biochemical and immunological research on the erythrocytic stages of Plasmodium . In this paper, an adaptation of magnetic...

Identification des trypanosomes chez les glossines en zones endémiques de trypanosomose humaine au Cameroun (1998)

Morlais, Isabelle

La trypanosomose humaine, affection parasitaire rencontrée en Afrique sub-saharienne, connaît actuellement de nouvelles flambées épidémiques dans de nombreux foyers historiques. Les relations...

Le principe de la lutte antivectorielle dans le contrôle de la trypanosomiase humaine africaine : rappels historiques et considérations pour l'avenir (1996)

Bureau, P., Bodo, J.M., Grébaut, Pascal, Herder, Stéphane, Morlais, Isabelle, Penchenier, Laurent, ...

A partir d'une revue de la littérature concernant la lutte contre la trypanosomiase humaine africaine dans l'ex-Afrique Equatoriale Française entre 1909 et 1945, les auteurs soulignent l'existence,...

Increased melanizing activity in Anopheles gambiae does not affect development of Plasmodium falciparum

Michel, Kristin, Suwanchaichinda, Chansak, Morlais, Isabelle, Lambrechts, Louis, Cohuet, Anna, Awono-Ambene, Parfait H., ...

Serpins are central to the modulation of various innate immune responses in insects and are suspected to influence the outcome of malaria parasite infection in mosquito vectors. Three Anopheles...

Anopheles and Plasmodium: from laboratory models to natural systems in the field

Cohuet, Anna, Osta, Mike A, Morlais, Isabelle, Awono-Ambene, Parfait H, Michel, Kristin, Simard, Frederic, ...

Parasites that cause malaria must complete a complex life cycle in Anopheles vector mosquitoes in order to be transmitted from human to human. Previous gene-silencing studies have shown the influence...

Conserved Mosquito/Parasite Interactions Affect Development of Plasmodium falciparum in Africa

Mendes, Antonio M., Schlegelmilch, Timm, Cohuet, Anna, Awono-Ambene, Parfait, De Iorio, Maria, Fontenille, Didier, ...

In much of sub-Saharan Africa, the mosquito Anopheles gambiae is the main vector of the major human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum. Convenient laboratory studies have identified mosquito...

Anopheles gambiae PGRPLC-Mediated Defense against Bacteria Modulates Infections with Malaria Parasites

Meister, Stephan, Agianian, Bogos, Turlure, Fanny, Relógio, Angela, Morlais, Isabelle, Kafatos, Fotis C., ...

Recognition of peptidoglycan (PGN) is paramount for insect antibacterial defenses. In the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, the transmembrane PGN Recognition Protein LC (PGRP-LC) is a receptor of...

Fine Pathogen Discrimination within the APL1 Gene Family Protects Anopheles gambiae against Human and Rodent Malaria Species

Mitri, Christian, Jacques, Jean-Claude, Thiery, Isabelle, Riehle, Michelle M., Xu, Jiannong, Bischoff, Emmanuel, ...

Genetically controlled resistance of Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes to Plasmodium falciparum is a common trait in the natural population, and a cluster of natural resistance loci were mapped to the...
