Induction of apoptosis in normal red blood cells (RBC) by plasma from P. falciparum patients. RBC from a healthy individual were incubated for 24h and 48h in the presence of plasma samples from non-infected control healthy individuals or from malaria patients infected with P. vivax (Pv) or P. falciparum (Pf). Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry using annexin V staining. Statistical difference was tested by non-parametric Mann Whitney test.
