Characterization of VAR2CSA-deficient Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes selected for adhesion to the BeWo placental cell line (2008)

Yosaatmadja, Francisca, Andrews, Katherine T, Duffy, Michael F, Brown, Graham V, Beeson, James G, Rogerson, Stephen J

Abstract Background Malaria in pregnancy is characterized by accumulation of infected erythrocytes (IE) in the placenta. The key ligand identified as mediating this process is a Plasmodium falciparum...

RAP1 controls rhoptry targeting of RAP2 in the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum

Baldi, Deborah L., Andrews, Katherine T., Waller, Ross F., Roos, David S., Howard, Randall F., Crabb, Brendan S., ...

Rhoptry associated protein 1 (RAP1) and 2 (RAP2), together with a poorly described third protein RAP3, form the low molecular weight complex within the rhoptries of Plasmodium falciparum. These...

Direct Activation of Human Endothelial Cells by Plasmodium falciparum-Infected Erythrocytes

Viebig, Nicola K., Wulbrand, Ulrich, Förster, Reinhold, Andrews, Katherine T., Lanzer, Michael, Knolle, Percy A.

Cytoadherence of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes (PRBC) to endothelial cells causes severe clinical disease, presumably as a of result perfusion failure and tissue hypoxia. Cytoadherence...

Potencies of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Protease Inhibitors In Vitro against Plasmodium falciparum and In Vivo against Murine Malaria

Andrews, Katherine T., Fairlie, David P., Madala, Praveen K., Ray, John, Wyatt, David M., Hilton, Petrina M., ...

Parasite resistance to antimalarial drugs is a serious threat to human health, and novel agents that act on enzymes essential for parasite metabolism, such as proteases, are attractive targets for...

Inhibition of Chondroitin-4-Sulfate-Specific Adhesion of Plasmodium falciparum-Infected Erythrocytes by Sulfated Polysaccharides

Andrews, Katherine T., Klatt, Nicole, Adams, Yvonne, Mischnick, Petra, Schwartz-Albiez, Reinhard

Adhesion of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes to placental chondroitin 4-sulfate (CSA) has been linked to the severe disease outcome of pregnancy-associated malaria. Soluble polysaccharides...

Inhibition of Plasmodium falciparum Growth In Vitro and Adhesion to Chondroitin-4-Sulfate by the Heparan Sulfate Mimetic PI-88 and Other Sulfated Oligosaccharides

Adams, Yvonne, Freeman, Craig, Schwartz-Albiez, Reinhard, Ferro, Vito, Parish, Christopher R., Andrews, Katherine T.

A panel of sulfated oligosaccharides was tested for antimalarial activity and inhibition of adhesion to the placental malaria receptor chondroitin-4-sulfate (CSA). The heparan sulfate mimetic PI-88,...
