Malaria parasites harness Rho GTPase signaling and host cell membrane ruffling for productive invasion of hepatocytes
Summary: Plasmodium sporozoites are the motile forms of the malaria parasites that infect hepatocytes. The initial invasion of hepatocytes is thought to be actively driven by sporozoites, but host cell processes might also play a role. Sporozoite invasion triggers a host plasma membrane invagination...
