Re: A study on Malaria
That is Quite Interesting and New,Then I think the Researchers may exploit this Phenomenon of "Microbila Flora" to make the mosquitoes totally Immune of acquiring the plasmodial Infection.

Re: A study on Malaria
My Interests are Many in the MPH Subjects,But Malaria and Health Policy will always remain on the "TOP" Here I will quote a good urdu Poetry in this Connection
Na Ga'ee Teray Ghamoo'n Ki Sardari
Yoo'n To Dil Main Roz Inqilab Aayay
Wish You All The Best in The Coming Exam,
Yours Brotherly,

Re: A study on Malaria
There has already been considerable research in this regard. In my lecture on Malaria, I had shown them a video about the research carried out by University of Kent, UK whose scientists have successfully isolated a docking gene, which when introduced into the breeding mosquitoes, reduces the cellular life span of mosquito tissues and hence the life span of mosquito is shortened. Since it is a gene therapy therapy the traits are carried on in mosquito offsprings and all coming generations of that mosquito have shortened life span, an average of 12 days which is less than 15 days which is required by the sexual cycle of Plasmodia.
Hence even if these mosquitoes get infected by humans, still they die before they are able to transmit that infection to other humans

Re: A study on Malaria
Super info. ! ..
Is there anything like this trait will definitely appear in the offspring or there are some chances of this charatcter remaining suppressed in offsprings ?

Re: A study on Malaria
As far as the research in University of Kent is concerned they have studied Mosquito generations over three years now all with shortened life span. There is however a theoritical probability of mutations in the docking genes over repeated generations leading to a suppression of the gene or modification of the genes, bt still the study is still going on, it will be inconclusive to say anything with certainity. But still it is a considerable degree of hope

Re: A study on Malaria
The information Given by our Teacher regarding the shortening of Mosquito's life is a very hopefull break-through and also an interesting one.If you have a CD or some notes kindly share with us.
Sir,
I liked one of your Short film, in which the Plasmodia were invading the RBCs and afterwards their release from the RBCs were also shown in that film.This was the most amazing thing about Malaria, Which I chanced to see in Abasyn.
