The Use of Filter-Purified Merozoites to Assess Anti-Merozoite Immunity

Le résumé fourni par la source

The role of complement during the invasion of red blood cells by Plasmodium merozoites is an enticing field of study that has great potential to impact not just our overall understanding of how the parasite interacts with the human host but also guide future efforts in the development of efficacious malarial vaccines. The complexity of parasite and host interactions during the invasion of red blood cells (RBCs) by the merozoites and the subsequent growth within the newly invaded host cell has led to conflicting results in the literature.
