Abstract
Malaria is an infectious disease caused by a microorganisms of the genus Plasmodium. It is still considered a public health problem, exposing many populations around the world at risk, especially those who live in tropical and subtropical areas. The role of P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) on the pathogenesis of experimental malaria has been greatly explored by our laboratory. In the malaria blood-s…

Abstract
Tuberculosis remains a major public health problem aggravated by the emergence of multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) strains (MDR-TB). Delay in initiation of treatment, high virulence of the infecting strain, and susceptibility to Tuberculosis contribute to the severity of the disease, which is often associated with a deleterious inflammatory response, leading to pulmona…
