Naturally occurring triggers that induce apoptosis-like programmed cell death in Plasmodium berghei ookinetes.

PloS one - 9 Sept 2010

Ali Medhat, Al-Olayan Ebtesam M, Lewis Steven, Matthews Holly, Hurd Hilary

Abstract excerpt

Several protozoan parasites have been shown to undergo a form of programmed cell death that exhibits morphological features associated with metazoan apoptosis. These include the rodent malaria parasite, Plasmodium berghei. Malaria zygotes develop in the mosquito midgut lumen, forming motile ookin...
