A redox cycle with complex II prioritizes sulfide quinone oxidoreductase-dependent H2S oxidation

Roshan Kumar et al.

Summary: The dual roles of H2S as a respiratory substrate and toxin raise questions about how it is cleared when the electron transport chain is inhibited. This study discovered a newly established redox cycle between SQOR and complex II at high H2S concentrations, which plays a significant role in prioritizing H2S oxidation.

Complexome profile of Toxoplasma gondii mitochondria identifies divergent subunits of respiratory chain complexes including new subunits of cytochrome bc1 complex

Andrew E. Maclean et al.

Summary: The study reveals the composition of the Toxoplasma mitochondrial electron transport chain (mETC) and F1Fo-ATP synthase using complexome profiling proteomic approach, with a particular focus on complexes II and III. The identification of new parasite-specific complex III subunits sheds light on the essential role of these proteins in parasite survival and proper functioning of the mETC. This highlights the diverse subunit composition of the apicomplexan mETC and F1Fo-ATP synthase complexes, setting the stage for future structural and drug discovery studies.

Association of Plasmodium falciparum kelch13 R561H genotypes with delayed parasite clearance in Rwanda: an open-label, single-arm, multicentre, therapeutic efficacy study

Aline Uwimana et al.

Summary: This study confirms the emergence of artemisinin partial resistance in Rwanda. Although artemether-lumefantrine remains efficacious, vigilance for decreasing efficacy and further characterization of artemisinin partial resistance should be considered. Evaluation of additional antimalarials in Rwanda is also recommended.

Endah Dwi Hartuti et al.

Summary: The resistance of Plasmodium falciparum to existing antimalarial drugs underscores the necessity for novel drug development. This study identified a new class of PfDHODH inhibitors that are selective and show low toxicity to human cells, serving as a promising starting point for antimalarial drug development.

Evidence of Artemisinin-Resistant Malaria in Africa

Betty Balikagala et al.

Summary: Research conducted in Northern Uganda revealed the emergence of artemisinin-resistant Plasmodium falciparum strains, with predominant mutations found in the kelch13 gene. Thirteen patients were infected with P. falciparum parasites carrying mutations in the A675V or C469Y allele, which were associated with prolonged parasite clearance half-lives.
