  • Title: Implications of imaging malaria sporozoites.
    Author: Chen Q, Wang H.
    Journal: Trends Parasitol; 2008 Mar; 24(3):106-9. PubMed ID: 18280209.
    Abstract:
    The sporozoites of Plasmodium parasites undergo several transmigrations before their establishment in the hepatocytes of a vertebrate host. Techniques that illustrate parasite intra-vital migration and their interaction with host cells will advance the understanding of parasite biology. In a recent publication, Amino et al. provided a detailed protocol for in vivo imaging of Plasmodium berghei sporozoites in the dermis. The report has important implications in the dissection of malaria parasite biology.
