Reversible host cell surface remodelling limits immune recognition and maximizes survival of Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes.

Reversible host cell surface remodelling limits immune recognition and maximizes survival of Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes.

Reducing malaria transmission has been a major pillar of control programmes and is considered crucial for achieving malaria elimination. Gametocytes, the transmissible forms of the P. falciparum parasite, arise during the blood stage of the parasite and develop through 5 morphologically distinct sta...
