Lipids and the malarial parasite.
Merozoite endocytosis initiates Plasmodium development in a vacuole bounded by an erythrocyte-derived membrane, whose asymmetrical distribution of lipids and proteins is reversed in its orientation with respect to the parasite plasma membrane. Reorientation may accompany the proliferation of the membrane associated with the parasite's growth and ...

Cultivation of malarial parasites
Nature, 1978The method for continuous cultivation of Plasmodium falciparum has now been successfully applied to several strains from different geographical areas. It has been used for tests of antimalarial drugs, for studies of parasite-host cell interactions with special reference to sickle haemoglobin, and for the production of amounts of parasite sufficient for

Receptors for the Malarial Parasite
Journal of Receptor Research, 1986During the erythrocytic cycle of Plasmodium, the parasite develops within an enclosed space, the parasitophorous vacuole, formed by endocytosis of an invasive stage, the merozoite. Among the erythrocyte membrane proteins possibly acting as a receptor for the attachment of P. falciparum merozoites to human erythrocytes is glycophorin A.

Exoerythrocytic Development of Malarial Parasites
1988Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the exoerythrocytic development of malarial parasites and summarizes the knowledge of the exo-erythrocytic (EE) form, a stage in the life-cycle of Plasmodium. In describing the development of the intracellular EE stage, it should be realized that, at the moment of fixation, the parasites are not resting stages

Sexual Development of Malarial Parasites
1983Publisher Summary This chapter describes the sexual development of malarial parasites. In the genus Plasmodium , sexual development begins when a merozoite invades the host erythrocyte, where it differentiates into a mature gametocyte. The sexual phase is completed only on the formation of a uninucleate zygote within the bloodmeal of the insect ...

RNA processing in malarial parasites
Parasitology Today, 1993RNA processing in malarial parasites is a relatively new focus o f scientific research. Although only a few transcripts have been characterized in depth, a few patterns are beginning to emerge. Alexandra Levitt here reviews post-transcriptional processing in Plasmodium.
