RMgm-1507
(Most) C57BL/6 mice infected with PbNK65-hrf resolve blood stage infections. Parasites are cleared from infection around day 13/14 after infection. Clearance is dependent on the infection dose (mice infected with a low dose of 10(3)parasites did not lead to parasite clearance). In contrast, all mice infected with wild type NK65 die from severe complications (around day 20 after infection). |

Sporozoites did not display any detectable defect in gliding motility, host cell traversal or host cell invasion of HepG2 cells.HRF1 and WT developed indistinguishably inside HepG2 cells into exo-erythrocytic forms (EEF, liver stages). Therefore, HRF does not appear to be important for a basic parasite developmental step detectable in vitro.To test pre-erythrocytic stage infectivity, sporozoites were inoculated into mice by mosquito bite, intradermal or intravenous injection and emergence of blood-stage parasites monitored by FACS. Only 40 to 50% of animals became infected after injection of HRF1 sporozoites when 100% animals were infected after injection of WT parasites. Animals became patent with HRF1 blood-stage parasites on average 2 to 3 days after the WT following infection by mosquito bites or inoculation of isolated sporozoites, corresponding to a 100 to 1000-fold decrease in infectivity of mutant parasites. |

Imaging data (from Malaria Metabolic Pathways)
Immunoelectron microscopy of P. falciparum-infected erythrocyte using anti-TCTP. FV – food vacuole. N – nucleus. P – parasite. Bar – 1 mm. TCTP was found to be located in both the cytoplasm and the food vacuole.Bhisutthibhan J, Philbert MA, Fujioka H, Aikawa M, Meshnick SR.

Indirect immunofluorescence of P. falcparum-infected erythrocytes using anti-TCTP antibody. Fixed culture containing trophozoites were stained with anti-TCTP Ab + FITC-labled goat anti rabbit Ab and counterstained with DAPI. a) fluorescence; b) Light microscopy; c) DAPI; d) a late trophozoite showed FITC fluorescence only in discrete vacuole; e) which can be seen to contain hemozoin; f) but to be different from nuclei; g-h) purified food vacuoles also show FITC fluorescence. FV – food vacuole. N – nucleus. P – parasite. Bar – 10 mm. TCTP was found to be located in both the cytoplasm and the food vacuole.Bhisutthibhan J, Philbert MA, Fujioka H, Aikawa M, Meshnick SR.
