Rheological Analysis of the Adhesive Interactions of Red Blood Cells Parasitized by Plasmodium falciparum

Adhesion of parasitized red blood cells (RBCs) to vascular endothelium is thought to be a key factor in the pathology of falciparum malaria. However, quantitative analyses of the intercellular forces and of the effects of flow on adhesion have been lacking. We have characterized cytoadhesion of RBCs...
