Corticosteroid stimulation of the growth of Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes in vitro.

S M Maswoswe, W Peters, D C Warhurst.   

Abstract

Corticosteroids were found to enhance gametocyte production in vitro in two gametocyte-producing chloroquine-resistant strains of Plasmodium falciparum. No significant enhancement was observed in two chloroquine-sensitive strains. Gametocytes were not induced by corticosteroids in a fifth strain which had lost the ability to produce gametocytes.
