Sequestration and tissue accumulation of human malaria parasites: can we learn anything from rodent models of malaria?
The sequestration of Plasmodium falciparum-infected red blood cells (irbcs) in the microvasculature of organs is associated with severe disease; correspondingly, the molecular basis of irbc adherence is an active area of study. In contrast to P. falciparum, much less is known about sequestration in...
