Virulence factors of the malaria parasite that modulate host vasoregulation [ 2014 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Natalie Spillman (Principal investigator)

Brief description The major aim of this study is to define the physiological role of the parasite EHs, and to establish whether they modulate levels of EETs within infected erythrocytes. I will examine if infected erythrocytes have impaired vasoactive properties and also determine if this pathway has therapeutic potential
