Sulfated glycoconjugates enhance CD36-dependent adhesion of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes to human microvascular endothelial cells.
A novel adhesive pathway that enhances the adhesion of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes (IEs) to endothelial cells has been identified. The sulfated glycoconjugates heparin, fucoidan, dextran sulfate 5000, and dextran sulfate 500 000 caused a dramatic increase in adhesion of IEs to human...
