  • The Fine Structure of the Exoerythrocytic Stages of Plasmodium
    THE FINE STRUCTURE OF THE EXOERYTHROCYTIC STAGES OF PLASMODIUM FALLAX PETER K. HEPLER, CLAY G. HUFF, and HELMUTH SPRINZ From the Department of Experimental Pathology, Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, Washington, D. C., and the Department of Parasitology, Naval Medical Research Institute, Bethesda, Maryland. Dr. Hepler's present address is the Biological Laboratories, Harvard University, Cambridge. ABSTRACT The fine structure of the exoerythrocytic cycle of an avian malarial parasite, Plasmodium fallax, has been analyzed using preparations grown in a tissue culture system derived from embryonic turkey brain cells which were fixed in glutaraldehyde-OsO4. The mature mero- zoite, an elongated cell 3- to 4-/~ long and l- to 2-# wide, is ensheathed in a complex double- layered pellicle. The anterior end consists of a conoid, from which emanate two lobed paired organelles and several closely associated dense bodies. A nucleus is situated in the mid portion of the cell, while a single mitochondrion wrapped around a spherical body is found in the posterior end. On the pellicle of the merozoite near the nucleus a cytostomal cavity, 80 to 100 m/~ in diameter, is located. Based on changes in fine structure, the subse- quent sequence of development is divided into three phases: first, the dedifferentiation phase, in which the merozoite loses many complex structures, i.e. the conoid, paired organelles, dense bodies, spherical body, and the thick inner layers of the pellicle, and transforms into a trophozoite; second, the growth phase, which consists of many nuclear divisions as well as parallel increases in mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and ribosomes; and third, the redifferentiation and cytoplasmic schizogony phase, in which the specialized organelles reappear as the new merozoites bud off from the mother schizont.

  • Exploring the Roles of Phosphoinositides in the Biology of the Malaria Parasite Plasmodium Falciparum
    Exploring the roles of phosphoinositides in the biology of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum Thèse Zeinab Ebrahimzadeh Doctorat en microbiologie-immunologie Philosophiæ doctor (Ph. D.) Québec, Canada © Zeinab Ebrahimzadeh, 2019 Exploring the roles of phosphoinositides in the biology of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum Thèse Zeinab Ebrahimzadeh M. Sc. Dave Richard, directeur de recherche Résumé Plasmodium falciparum est un parasite appartenant au phylum Apicomplexa et est à l’origine de la forme la plus sévère de la malaria. Dans les zones endémiques d'Afrique subsaharienne, la plupart des victimes sont des enfants de moins de cinq ans. L’entrée de P. falciparum dans sa cellule cible, le globule rouge, repose sur la sécrétion de protéines par des organites spécialisés : les micronèmes, les rhoptries et les granules denses. Les mécanismes de biogenèse de ces organites et la coordination de la libération de leur contenu lors de l'invasion sont cependant pour la plupart inconnus. Il a été toutefois été démontré que les protéines destinées à ces organites apicaux se concentrent dans des microdomaines de l’appareil de Golgi, dont la composition en lipides et en protéines détermine leur destination finale. À ce jour, les mécanismes de sélection et de transport des protéines apicales vers les organites d'invasion ainsi que leurs mécanismes de sécrétion durant l’invasion sont pour la plupart inconnus. Nous avons donc posé l’hypothèse que les phosphoinositides (PI) et leurs protéines effectrices sont impliqués dans ces processus chez P. falciparum. Les PI sont sept lipides phosphorylés retrouvés de façon minoritaire dans les différentes membranes cellulaires. Chaque membrane subcellulaire contient une espèce caractéristique de PI qui peut être reconnue et liée spécifiquement par des protéines effectrices.

CANNING, R. E. SINDEN, Irène LANDAU and F. MILTGEN Department of Zoology, Imperial College, London SW7, England, Laboratoire de Zoologie (Vers), Museum national d'Histoire naturelle, F 75231 Paris Cedex 05 Summary. An immature merocyst of Hepatocystis malayensis and gametocytes of H. brayi were studied with the electron microscope. The merocyst consisted of a highly complex cyto­ plasmic reticulum ramifying through an amorphous matrix: the entire complex was enclosed by a simple unit membrane. The host cell was apparently destroyed completely during growth of the cyst. Immature gametocytes were highly amoeboid and showed extensive vacuolisation or attenuation of the cytoplasm. The nucleus contained one or two prominent nucleoli. Mature gametocytes had compact cytoplasm and contained pyriform osmiophilic bodies which were believed to function in the release of the parasites from the host cells. Macrogametocytes were distinguished from microgametocytes by cytoplasmic differences in numbers of ribosomes, and cristate mitochondria and in the extent of development of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The compact nuclei of the macrogametocytes had inconspicuous DNA but prominent nucleoli whereas those of the microgametocytes were irregular and showed a central aggregate of DNA.

  • The Development of the Sporozoite of Plasmodium Gallinaceum (Apicomplexa : Haemosporina)
    THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE SPOROZOITE OF PLASMODIUM GALLINACEUM (APICOMPLEXA : HAEMOSPORINA) by David Peter Turner, B.Sc. (Lond.), A.R.C.S. A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of London Department of Zoology and Applied Entomology, Imperial College Field Station, Silwood Park, Ascot, Berkshire, SL5 7PY. May 1980 TO MY MOTHER AND FATHER WITH AFFECTION AND GRATITUDE This day relenting God Hath placed within my hand A wondrous thing; and God Be praised. At his command, Seeking His secret deeds With tears and toiling breath, I find thy cunning seeds, 0 million-murdering Death. Sir Ronald, Ross Inspired by his discovery of the wonderful "pigmented cells" (oocysts) protruding from the stomach wall of a dapple-wing mosquito. -4 ABSTRACT This thesis describes an investigation into the development of the P. gallinaceum sporozoite. Observations by light microscopy failed to distinguish between sporozoites from mature oocysts and those from salivary glands. The only significant morphological change at the ultrastructural level occurred in the organisation of the rhoptry-microneme complex and resulted in a proliferation of the micronemes and a disappearance of the rhoptries in the salivary gland forms. The cell surface properties of sporozoites were investigated by the techniques of free-flow electrophoresis and lectin-binding studies. The electrophoretic mobility of sporozoites was measured as a function of pH and data from these observations demonstrated that there was a significant reduction in cell surface charge of salivary gland sporo- zoites, compared to sporozoites from mature oocysts and qualitative differences between the two populations were shown to exist.

The discovery of the apicoplast ushered in an exciting new prospect for drug development against the para- site. The eubacterial ancestry of the organelle offers a wealth of opportunities for the development of therapeutic interventions.

Jasim Iraq Natural History Museum, University of Baghdad. Baghdad, Iraq Received: 6/9/2003 Accepted: 21/1/2004 Abstract Twenty-two out of 97 specimens of falconiform birds collected at different areas of Iraq, which belong to nine species, were found infected with blood parasites. Five species of haematozoa were recovered. Microfilariae were the most common parasite with an infection rate of 12.4% followed by Haemoproteas tinnunculus, Leucocytozoon toddi, Plasmodium fallax, P. relictum and Trypanosoma avium complex with infection rates of 10.3%, 5.2%, 4.1% and 1% respectively. Two species, Leucocytozoon toddi and Plasmodium fallax are found to be new host records. اﻟﺧﻼﺻﺔ ﻣن أﺻﻝ 97 ﻧﻣوذﺟﺎً ﻣن اﻟطﻳور اﻟﺻﻘرﻳﺔ ﺗم ﺟﻣﻌﻬﺎ ﻣن ﻣﻧﺎطق ﻣﺧﺗﻠﻔﺔ ﻣن اﻟﻌراق وﺟد ﺑﺄن 22 ﻣﻧﻬـﺎ ﻣـﺻﺎﺑﺔ ﺑواﺣـــدة أو أﻛﺛـــر ﻣـــن ﺧﻣـــﺳﺔ أﻧـــواع ﻣـــن طﻔﻳﻠﻳـــﺎت اﻟـــدم ﺗـــم اﻟﺣـــﺻوﻝ ﻋﻠﻳﻬـــﺎ. ﻛﺎﻧـــت اﻟﻳرﻗـــﺎت اﻟدﻗﻳﻘـــﺔ ﻟدﻳـــدان اﻟﻔﻼرﻳـــﺎ (microfilaria) ﻫـــــﻲ اﻷوﺳـــــﻊ أﻧﺗـــــﺷﺎراً وﺑﻣﻌـــــدﻝ أﺻـــــﺎﺑﺔ ﻳﺑﻠـــــﻎ 12.4% ﻳﺗﺑﻌﻬـــــﺎ ﺑ ﺎ ﻟ ﺗ رﺗﻳـــــب ﻫﻳﻣوﺑروﺗﻳـــــوس ﺗﻧـــــﻧﻛﻠس Haemoproteus tinnunclus وﻟﻳوﻛوﺳﺎﻳﺗوزون ﺗودي Leucocytozoon toddi وﺑﻼزﻣودﻳوم Plasmodium (ﻧوﻋـﺎن ﻫﻣـﺎ: P. fallax و P. relictum) وﺗرﺑﺎﻧوﺳـوﻣﺎ اﻳﻔﻳـوم Trypanosoma avium وﺑﻧـﺳب أﺻـﺎﺑﺔ ﺗﺑﻠـﻎ 10.3 % و 5.2 % و 4.1 % و 1% ﻋﻠﻰ اﻟﺗواﻟﻲ. وﻗـد ﺳـﺟﻝ أﺛﻧـﺎن ﻣـن اﻟطﻔﻳﻠﻳـﺎت ﻫﻣـﺎ Leucocytozoon toddi و Plasmodium fallax ﻛﺗﺳﺟﻳﻼت ﺟدﻳدة ﻟﻠﻣﺿﻳف.

  • Contrasts in the Prevalence of Avian Malaria in Shorebird Species Using Marine and Freshwater Habitats
    OIKOS 109: 396Á/404, 2005 Disease-limited distributions? Contrasts in the prevalence of avian malaria in shorebird species using marine and freshwater habitats Luisa Mendes, Theunis Piersma, Miguel Lecoq, Bernard Spaans and Robert E. Ricklefs Mendes, L., Piersma, T., Lecoq, M., Spaans, B. and Ricklefs, R. E. 2005. Disease- limited distributions? Contrasts in the prevalence of avian malaria in shorebird species using marine and freshwater habitats. Á/ Oikos 109: 396Á/404. Migratory shorebirds show strong dichotomies in habitat choice during both the breeding and nonbreeding season. Whereas High Arctic breeding species are restricted to coastal marine and saline habitats during the nonbreeding season, more southerly breeding species tend to use freshwater habitats away from coasts. It has been proposed that this co-variation in habitat use is a consequence of a single axis of adaptation to pathogens and parasites, which are hypothesized to be relatively scarce in High Arctic, marine, and saline habitats and relatively common at lower latitudes and in freshwater habitats. Here we examine this contrast by comparing the prevalence of avian malaria infections in shorebirds occupying different habitats. We used a PCR-based assay on 1319 individuals from 31 shorebird species sampled in the Arctic, in temperate Europe and in inland and marine habitats in West Africa. Infections mainly occurred in tropical wetlands, with the shorebirds in freshwater inland habitats having significantly higher prevalence of malaria than birds in marine coastal habitats. Infections were not found in birds migrating through Europe even though conspecifics did show infections in tropical Africa. Adults should resist infection better than juveniles, but showed higher malaria prevalence, suggesting that infection probability increases with cumulative exposure.
