This study uses high-resolution proteomics to show that Plasmodium infection disrupts mosquito salivary glands, causing exchange of proteins between hemolymph and saliva.

This study uses expansion microscopy to investigate sporozoite biology in malaria parasites, revealing new insights into rhoptry function and identifying a key protein involved in invasion.

The paper introduces MoTissU-ExM, a method to expand mosquito tissues for visualizing malaria parasites, enabling ultrastructural analysis of both host and parasite structures.

The paper investigates six membrane transporters in Plasmodium falciparum, finding four essential for asexual development and one essential for gametocytogenesis.
