Malaria, a life-threatening disease caused by the Plasmodium parasite, continues to pose a significant global health challenge. The transmission of malaria primarily occurs through the bite of infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. While the mechanism of Plasmodium transmission is well-established, recent research has unveiled the substantial influence of Anopheles mosquito saliva on Plasmodium infection. This review article explores the complex interactions between mosquito saliva and the malaria parasite, shedding light on the various ways in which mosquito saliva impacts different stages of Plasmodium infection. Understanding these interactions can pave the way for innovative strategies in malaria control and prevention
