Cell invasion by the vertebrate stages of Plasmodium.

Abstract:

:Protozoans of the genus Plasmodium are the causative agents of malaria; they have a complex life cycle involving vertebrate and arthropod hosts and have three distinct invasive stages. Although the invasive stages probably invade cells using similar mechanisms, each stage has a different host cell specificity and utilizes different receptors to enter cells.
