Plasmodium vivax Gametocytes Adherence to Bone Marrow Endothelial Cells

Plasmodium vivax Gametocytes Adherence to Bone Marrow Endothelial Cells

In a Plasmodium vivax infection, it was shown a proportionally increased on gametocyte distribution within the bone marrow aspirant, suggesting a role of this organ as a reservoir for this parasite stage. Here, we evaluated the ex vivo cytoadhesive capacity of P. vivax gametocytes to bone marrow end...
