Novel single-cell preservation and RNA sequencing technology unlocks field studies for Plasmodium natural infections

Abstract excerpt

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is a powerful technology used to investigate cellular heterogeneity. When applied to unicellular eukaryotes such as Plasmodium, scRNA-seq provides a single-cell resolution valuable to study complex infections comprised of mixed lifecycle stages and clones. Until now, the application of scRNA-seq has been mainly limited to in vitro and animal malaria models due to the...
