<i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> exploits CD44 as a co-receptor for erythrocyte invasion

2023-04-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum invades and replicates asexually within human erythrocytes. CD44 expressed on erythrocytes was previously identified as an important host factor for P. falciparum infection through a forward genetic screen, but little is known about its regulation or function in these cells, nor how it may be utilized by the parasite. We found that CD44 can be efficie...
