The Cellular and Molecular Interaction Between Erythrocytes and Plasmodium falciparum Merozoites
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 Plasmodium falciparum is the most lethal human malaria parasite, partly due to its genetic variability and ability to use multiple invasion routes via its binding to host cell surface receptors.

A Novel Thioredoxin-Like Protein of Babesia microti Involved in Parasite Pathogenicity
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 Babesiosis poses a serious threat to immunocompromised individuals and the major etiological species of Babesia for human babesiosis is Babesia microti. Merozoites are a critical stage in the life cycle of Babesia microti. Several merozoite proteins have

AP2XII-1 is a negative regulator of merogony and presexual commitment in Toxoplasma gondii
mBio, 2023 A transition from the asexual to sexual development in the widespread intracellular pathogen Toxoplasma gondii requires stage switching in its feline (definitive) host, but the mechanisms governing this process remain elusive.

Identification of a Novel RAMA/RON3 Rhoptry Protein Complex in Plasmodium falciparum Merozoites
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 Malaria causes a half a million deaths annually. The parasite intraerythrocytic lifecycle in the human bloodstream is the major cause of morbidity and mortality. Apical organelles of merozoite stage parasites are involved in the invasion of erythrocytes.

Influence of Qingchang Oral Liquid on Second Generation Merozoite of the Chicken Eimeria tenella
Brazilian Journal of Poultry Science, 2021 To determine the effect of Qingchang Oral Liquid (QOL) on second generation merozoite of chicken E. tenella, healthy Roman pink chickens were randomly divided into model group and QOL group (drug group), and both groups of chicks were inoculated with 5 ...
