Robust continuous in vitro culture of the Plasmodium cynomolgi erythrocytic stages

Robust continuous in vitro culture of the Plasmodium cynomolgi erythrocytic stages

Present understanding of Plasmodium vivax biology is hampered by its inability to grow in vitro. Here, the authors developed an in vitro culture of its simian counterpart, P. cynomolgi, which shares morphological and phenotypic similarities with P. vivax, initiating a new phase in vivax research.
