Host–parasite interactions that guide red blood cell invasion by malaria parasites

12 Mar 2015

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Malaria is caused by the infection and proliferation of parasites from the genus Plasmodium in red blood cells (RBCs). A free Plasmodium parasite, or merozoite, released from an infected RBC must invade another RBC host cell to sustain a blood-stage infection. Here, we review recent advances on RBC invasion by Plasmodium merozoites, focusing on specific molecular interactions between host and...
