Gene silencing and antigenic variation in malaria parasites.

TheScientificWorldJournal - 13 Nov 2001

Deitsch K W

Abstract excerpt

Malaria remains one of the most important infectious diseases in the world today, infecting 300 to 500 million people yearly and resulting in 1 to 2 million deaths, primarily of young African children. The most severe form of this disease is caused by infection with the mosquito borne protozoan parasite Plasmodium falciparum. This parasite lives by invading and multiplying within the red blood cells of its host,...
