Tumor necrosis factor reduces Plasmodium falciparum growth and activates calcium signaling in human malaria parasites

Plasmodium has a complex biology including the ability to interact with host signals modulating their function through cellular machinery. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) elicits diverse cellular responses including effects in malarial pathology and increased infected erythrocyte cytoadherence. As TNF l...
