Reticulocyte-prone malaria parasites predominantly invade CD71(hi) immature cells: implications for the development of an in vitro culture for Plasmodium vivax

BACKGROUND: The lack of a continuous in vitro culture system for blood stages of malarial parasites with a unique tropism for reticulocytes, such as Plasmodium vivax and the Plasmodium yoelii 17X reticulocyte-prone strain, hinders research in these organisms.
