Elucidating parasite and host-cell factors enabling Babesia infection in sickle red cells under hypoxic/hyperoxic conditions

Sickle red blood cells (RBCs) represent a naturally existing host-cell resistance mechanism to hemoparasite infections. We investigate the basis of this resistance using Babesia divergens grown in sickle (SS) and sickle trait (AS) cells. We found that oxygenation and its corresponding effect on RBC...
