Summary

According to the World Health Organization the global estimate of malaria is over 200 million infections, the majority of which are caused by the most life-threatening species, Plasmodium falciparum (Report of the Steering Committees of the Scientific Working Groups on Malaria, World Health Organization, June 1983). The causative agent of the disease, the malarial parasite, requires two hosts: a blood-sucking mosquito and a blood-containing vertebrate. Commonly, infection of the vertebrate begins when an infected mosquito bites a suitable vertebrate and injects minute sporozoites into the bloodstream. Within 30 mm the introduced sporozoites leave the bloodstream and enter parenchymal cells of the liver (mammals) or endothelial cells (birds). In these sites the parasite undergoes asexual multiplication (= exo-erythrocytic schizogony) producing daughter progeny called merozoites. The exo-erythrocytic merozoites are released from the tissues into the circulation where they invade red blood cells. Within an erythrocyte the merozoite undergoes asexual multiplication (= erythrocytic schizogony) producing a substantial number of merozoites. The erythrocyte lyses, merozoites are released, and invasion of another erythrocyte may then take place. The synchronous rupture of the red cell and merozoite release is marked by the periodic fever–chill cycles so characteristic of the malarial infection. Some merozoites continue to reinvade other erythrocytes and multiply by asexual means, whereas others enter erythrocytes and differentiate into sexual stages, male or female gametocytes. When a suitable mosquito feeds on an infected vertebrate gametocytes are ingested and the sexual cycle of development is initiated. In the mosquito stomach the gametocytes transform into gametes, fertilization takes place, the resultant worm-like zygote penetrates the cells of the mosquito gut and comes to lie on the outer surface of the stomach. Here each zygote forms a cyst-like body, the oocyst, within which thousands of sporozoites are produced by asexual multiplication. When the swollen oocysts burst, sporozoites are freed and these make their way to the salivary gland. At the next blood feeding the mosquito injects the infective sporozoites and the life-cycle is completed.
