Relationships between sequestration, antigenic variation and chronic parasitism in Plasmodium chabaudi chabaudi--a rodent malaria model.

We describe here a rodent malaria model using cloned lines of Plasmodium chabaudi chabaudi in inbred CBA/Ca mice that exhibits both clonal antigenic variation in late stage-specific surface antigens, and deep vascular schizogony in the liver. We show that both these features are modulated by the spl...
