Figure 1
Diagram comparing the release of merozoites from schizonts in the absence of protease inhibitors (Left, PI−) and in their presence (Right, PI+). The X indicates that the protease inhibitors have been removed by washing, allowing the escape of merozoites and reinvasion. On the left the red cell membrane (red-brown) and the PV (blue) remains intact until final merozoite release, whereas on the right the red cell membrane is lost, exposing the PVM, as reported by Salmon et al. (1).
