The invention relates to application of a
scavenger receptor A antibody in preparation of a
medicine for inhibiting plasmodium transmission, and belongs to the technical field of
malaria prevention and treatment. Aiming at the technical problem that in the prior art, the
drug resistance of plasmodium to drugs and the resistance of mosquito vector to insecticides are increasingly serious, so that the
malaria propagation
control effect is reduced, the invention provides a
scavenger receptor A antibody which is specifically combined with a
scavenger receptor A on the surface of macrophage to inhibit the phagocytic function of the
scavenger receptor A, so that the
control effect of
malaria propagation is improved. Therefore, the proliferation of antimalarial active
bacteria (such as Elizabeth,
shigella sonnei or
klebsiella oxytoca) in the
stomach of the anopheles is promoted, and the development of plasmodium in the
midgut of the anopheles is indirectly blocked. The
antibody can be used alone or in combination with a Pfs25
antibody. The anopheles
infection rate and the number of oocysts are remarkably reduced (for example, the
infection rate is reduced from 81.7% to 6%), an eco-friendly biological
control mode which is not prone to
drug resistance is provided, and a new strategy is provided for malaria transmission blocking.
