Establishing a Murine Model of Malaria-Associated Acute Kidney Injury and Demonstrating the Contribution of Extrinsic Apoptosis to Tubular Necrosis
<p>Malaria-associated acute kidney injury (MAKI) is a form of severe malaria (SM), which is usually caused by Plasmodium falciparum infection. Until recently, the impact of this particular complication of SM was severely underestimated and research in this area has been neglected. There is in fact …
