London: A
new treatment to prevent the transmission of malaria parasites from
humans to mosquitoes, thereby preventing further spread within the
population, could be possible thanks to the stiffening powers of Viagra.
The findings, published in
PLOS Pathogens, reveal how the drug could cause the malaria parasite
Plasmodium falciparum to be trapped in the spleen by changing its shape. The research was conducted by frech researchers.
