VEGF and LPS synergistically silence inflammatory response to Plasmodium berghei infection and protect against cerebral malaria (2015)
Journal Article
Canavese, M., Dottorini, T., & Crisanti, A. (2015). VEGF and LPS synergistically silence inflammatory response to Plasmodium berghei infection and protect against cerebral malaria. Pathogens and Global Health, 109(6), doi:10.1179/2047773215Y.0000000018

Malaria infection induces, alongside endothelial damage and obstruction hypoxia, a potent inflammatory response similar to that observed in other systemic diseases caused by bacteria and viruses. Accordingly, it is increasingly recognised that cerebr...

Highly evolvable malaria vectors: the genomes of 16 Anopheles mosquitoes (2015)
Journal Article
Neafsey, D. E., Waterhouse, R. M., Abai, M. R., Aganezov, S. S., Alekseyev, M. A., Allen, J. E., …Besansky, N. J. (2015). Highly evolvable malaria vectors: the genomes of 16 Anopheles mosquitoes. 00 Journal not listed, 347(6217), Article 1258522. https://doi.org/10.1126/science.1258522

Variation in vectorial capacity for human malaria among Anopheles mosquito species is determined by many factors, including behavior, immunity, and life history. To investigate the genomic basis of vectorial capacity and explore new avenues for vecto... Read More about Highly evolvable malaria vectors: the genomes of 16 Anopheles mosquitoes.
