Background An important virulence mechanism of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum is cytoadhesion, the binding of infected erythrocytes to endothelial cells in the second half of asexual blood stage development. Conventional methods to investigate adhesion of infected erythrocytes are mostly performed under static conditions, many are based on manual or semi-automated read-outs and are, therefore,...
The cytoadhesion of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes (IEs) in organ microvessels is a key event in the pathogenesis of cerebral malaria and pulmonary edema. Identification of the molecules involved in the interaction between IEs and endothelial cells has been a major goal of research into severe forms of malaria. In contrast, the consequences of cytoadhesion for endothelial cells have been...
