Experimental Mosquitoes Targeted For Malaria Vaccine Test
A Maryland research effort aims to extract malaria parasites from mosquitoes without harm to test an oral or injectable vaccine strategy. Researchers at University of Maryland and Sanaria Inc explore gene modified, glowing mosquitoes to increase vaccine ingredient yield and possibly breed insects less able to spread malaria. Scientists caution results are far from certain, though the approach marks a shift toward insect based gene therapy.
