Anopheles mosquito = antimalarial vaccine

Currently the World Health Organization, WHO, estimates that about one million, from 250 million people die of malaria each year, even in Africa, one out of every five cases of child deaths caused by malaria.

Scientists from the University of Medicine in Tokyo, Japan, managed to find a vaccine to developing antimalarial genetic engineering of the mosquito species Anopheles. ThIs British scientific journal, Insect Molecular Biology CNN quoted the site.

In the release site, the Chairman of the research team of Professor Shigeto Yoshida Jichi said, researchers succeeded in changing water Anopheles mosquito salivary gland type Stephensi, a Leishmania vaccine. And mosquitoes nicknamed "vaccinator fly" is the main spreaders of malaria in humans.

Yoshida explains, to test the vaccine inoculation in laboratory mice, managed to produce antibodies from mosquito attack in tropical and subtropical regions. Thus, serum antibodies, can be used in formulating a new strategy to fight malaria globally.
