lüll Plasmodium sporozoite invasion of the mosquito salivary gland Ghosh AK; Jacobs-Lorena MCurr Opin Microbiol 2009[Aug]; 12 (4): 394-400About one to two million people die of malaria every year. Anopheline mosquitoes are the obligatory vectors of Plasmodium spp., the causative agent of malaria. For transmission to occur, the parasite has to undergo a complex developmental programme in the mosquito, culminating with sporozoite invasion of the salivary glands. Strong circumstantial evidence suggests that sporozoite invasion requires specific interactions and recognition between sporozoite and salivary gland proteins. Here we review recent progress towards the elucidation of invasion mechanisms.|Animals[MESH]|Culicidae/*parasitology[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Host-Parasite Interactions[MESH]|Insect Proteins/metabolism[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Models, Biological[MESH]|Plasmodium/*growth & development[MESH]|Protozoan Proteins/metabolism[MESH]|Salivary Glands/*parasitology[MESH]|Sporozoites/*growth & development[MESH] |
