Studies of the ability of Plasmodium falciparum to grow in vitro in the red blood cells of subjects with certain beta-thalassemia syndromes are often difficult to interpret because of the known inhibitory effect of an elevated cellular content of human fetal hemoglobin (HbF). P falciparum therefore was cultured in vitro in the erythrocytes of subjects with hemoglobin H (HbH) disease and various...

Previous studies with radiolabeled artemisinin and dihydroartemisinin have measured uptake in Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes. Uptake is much greater in infected than in uninfected erythrocytes, but the relative contributions of transport, binding, and metabolism to this process still await definitio...
