Activation of the hypnozoite: a part of Plasmodium vivax life cycle and survival

16 Apr 2011

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Plasmodium vivax is the most widespread malaria parasite. It has a dormant stage in the human liver, which makes it difficult to eradicate. It is proposed that a relapse of vivax malaria, besides being genetically determined by the specific strain, is induced by the bites of uninfected vectors. PRESENTATION OF THE HYPOTHESIS: The dormant stage maximizes the possibility for the parasite to reach the...
