Malaria remains a major global health challenge, exacerbated by emerging drug-resistant Plasmodium strains. Herein, we report the design, synthesis, and dual-stage antimalarial evaluation of β-carboline−metronidazole hybrids. The synthesized hybrids, linked through ester and amide bonds, were evaluated in vitro again...

Malaria parasites must undergo complex developmental transitions to complete their life cycle and transmit between vertebrate and mosquito hosts. These transitions are tightly regulated by protein phosphorylation events, yet the specific kinases involved remain poorly characterized. Here, we investigate the role of a p...
Findings highlight both canonical and non‐canonical roles of autophagy proteins in Plasmodium, driving metabolic reprogramming, intracellular remodeling, and stage‐specific differentiation, and support their potential as targets for new antimalarial therapies.
