On cytoadhesion of Plasmodium vivax: raison d'être?

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2011
It is generally accepted that Plasmodium vivax, the most widely distributed human malaria parasite, causes mild disease and that this species does not sequester in the deep capillaries of internal organs.

Expansion of Lysine-rich repeats in Plasmodium proteins generates novel localisation sequences that target the periphery of the host Erythrocyte [PDF]

, 2016
Repetitive low-complexity sequences, mostly assumed to have no function, are common in proteins that are exported by the malaria parasite into its host erythrocyte.

UHPLC/MS Profile and Antimalarial Potency of Enantia chlorantha Oliv. (Annonaceae) Stem Bark Aqueous Extract

Advances in Pharmacological and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The escalating challenge of malaria management, primarily driven by antimalarial drug resistance, necessitates the urgent exploration of novel therapeutic agents. This investigation focused on characterizing the therapeutic efficacy of an aqueous stem bark extract derived from Enantia chlorantha Oliv (Annonaceae) against the parasitic burden of ...

A chromosome 9 deletion in Plasmodium falciparum results in loss of cytoadherence

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1992
Many lines of Plasmodium falciparum undrgo a deletion of the right end of chromosome 9 during in vitro culture accompanied by loss of cytoadherence and gametocytogenesis.

Molecular mechanistic insights into the endothelial receptor mediated cytoadherence of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Cytoadherence or sequestration is essential for the pathogenesis of the most virulent human malaria species, Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum). Similar to leukocyte-endothelium interaction in response to inflammation, cytoadherence of P.

Host cell deformability is linked to transmission in the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum [PDF]

, 2012
available in PMC 2013 July 01.Gametocyte maturation in Plasmodium falciparum is a critical step in the transmission of malaria. While the majority of parasites proliferate asexually in red blood cells, a small fraction of parasites undergo sexual ...

Serum Anti‐Erythropoietin Autoantibodies and Their Association With Younger Age in Paediatric Malaria Cases

BioMed Research International, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background Malaria remains a major public health concern, particularly among children under 5 years in the WHO African Region. Malarial anaemia is a common complication in this population. Factors that are associated with the development of malarial anaemia include haemolysis, dyserythropoiesis, erythrophagocytosis and bone marrow suppression, with ...

Cytoadherence and severe malaria.

The Malaysian journal of medical sciences : MJMS, 2012
Malaria is a disease that causes enormous human morbidity and mortality. One feature of mature Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes leading to the development of severe malaria is thought to be cytoadherence and blockage of the microvasculature. Therefore, an understanding of mechanisms that mediate parasite adhesion leading to malaria pathology
