A particle-based computational model to analyse remodelling of the red blood cell cytoskeleton during malaria infections.
Red blood cells can withstand the harsh mechanical conditions in the vasculature only because the bending rigidity of their plasma membrane is complemented by the shear elasticity of the underlying spectrin-actin network. During an infection by the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum, the parasit...
