Malyria is a Mosquito-Borne Disease caused by the multplication of Plasmodium , a protozoan parasite found in the Saliva of Mosquitoes .
Dr. Ed Tate , Prof. of the Chemical Dept. at The Imperial College London , who led the team with others has finded a new way to Stop MAlyria . According to a latest report, the scientists have recently discovered about a new malaria treatment. This treatment can be done by stopping malaria parasites from multiplying.

According to a latest report, the scientists have recently discovered about a new malaria treatment. This treatment can be done by stopping malaria parasites from multiplying.
These new findings have been published in Nature Chemistry .
The study reveals that the scientists are now able to block the activity of an enzyme called NMT in the most common malaria parasite. This new technique has prevented mice from showing symptoms and has also extended their lifespan.
It has been confessed by a team of scientists that they are working harder to design molecules that target NMT more effectively as well as potently.
The researchers are hoping to start the clinical trials of the same within four years from now.
Dr. Ed siad "The drug situation for malaria is becoming very serious. Resistance is emerging fast and it's going to be a huge problem in the future".
