Exosomes From Plasmodium yoelii-Infected Reticulocytes Protect Mice From Lethal Infections [PDF]
Exosomes are 30-100-nm membrane vesicles of endocytic origin that are released after the fusion of multivesicular bodies (MVBs) with the plasma membrane.

Sequential roles for red blood cell binding proteins enable phased commitment to invasion for malaria parasites [PDF]
Invasion of red blood cells (RBCs) by Plasmodium merozoites is critical to their continued survival within the host. Two major protein families, the Duffy binding-like proteins (DBPs/EBAs) and the reticulocyte binding like proteins (RBLs/RHs) have been ...

Erythrocyte Tropism of Malarial Parasites: The Reticulocyte Appeal
Erythrocytes are formed from the enucleation of erythroblasts in the bone marrow, and as erythrocytes develop from immature reticulocytes into mature normocytes, they undergo extensive cellular changes through their passage in the blood. During the blood

Rodent Malaria Erythrocyte Preference Assessment by an Ex Vivo Tropism Assay
Circulating red blood cells consist of young erythrocytes (early and late reticulocytes) and mature erythrocytes (normocytes). The human malaria parasites, Plasmodium falciparum and P.

Plasmodium vivax Reticulocyte Binding Proteins Are Key Targets of Naturally Acquired Immunity in Young Papua New Guinean Children. [PDF]
Major gaps in our understanding of Plasmodium vivax biology and the acquisition of immunity to this parasite hinder vaccine development. P. vivax merozoites exclusively invade reticulocytes, making parasite proteins that mediate reticulocyte binding and ...

Disease progression in Plasmodium knowlesi malaria is linked to variation in invasion gene family members. [PDF]
Emerging pathogens undermine initiatives to control the global health impact of infectious diseases. Zoonotic malaria is no exception. Plasmodium knowlesi, a malaria parasite of Southeast Asian macaques, has entered the human population. P.

Plasmodium knowlesi genome sequences from clinical isolates reveal extensive genomic dimorphism. [PDF]
Plasmodium knowlesi is a newly described zoonosis that causes malaria in the human population that can be severe and fatal. The study of P. knowlesi parasites from human clinical isolates is relatively new and, in order to obtain maximum information from

CHARACTERISTICS AND TERMINOLOGY OF EERTHROID CELLS
The first morphologically recognized cell of erythrocytopoiesis is erythroblast. During the maturation of erythrocytes from the erythroblast to the mature cell undergo the following major changes: the basophilia of the cytoplasm of the cell (due to the ...
