Can Plasmodium falciparum Induce Homocysteinemia in Malaria Patients?
Noé Yaméogo, Abdoul Karim Ouattara, Bapio Valérie Bazié, Alfred Rakissida Ouédraogo, Florencia Wendkuuni Djigma, Jacques Simporé
Background
Plasmodium falciparum has developed elaborate strategies to survive in the hostile intracellular environment of the infected host cell, including resistance to oxidative stress. Cysteine is a metabolic product of homocysteine and a precursor of the antioxidant glutathione used by Plasmodium falciparum to escape harmful oxidation.(...)

OUILI S. Amidou, MAIGA Ynoussa, OUOBA Adjima, NANKANGRE Hervé, COMPAORE Cheik Omar Tidiane, NIKIEMA Mahamadi, OUEDRAOGO Mahama, OUATTARA Aboubakar Sidiki
Bambara groundnut plays a major role in the production systems and diets of farmers in Burkina Faso. This crop, due to certain production, storage, or preservation conditions, is subject to damage by insects and fungi. Effective post-harvest management can contribute significantly to reducing losses during storage. This study was carried out i(...)
