Studies reported by different investigators have shown that a dietary intake of 10 % canola oil (as part of semi-purified diets) significantly shortened the life-span of SHRSP rats, with accumulation of phytosterols in plasma, red blood cells and tissues [ 15 17 18 19 21 22 ] . Lower red blood cell (RBC) membrane deformability, lower density of platelets, as well as a higher blood pressure were also observed, when compared to a SHRSP group fed with vegetable oils lower in phytosterols (10 % soybean oil vs. 10% canola oil).
An RBC block (2.
The negative control luciferase RNA was the same as the double-stranded GL3 RNA described previously [ 17 ] . The RNAs were annealed in vitro to form double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) [ 18 ] and electroporation was carried out essentially as described [ 32 ] . In brief, 3 μg dsRNA in 800 μl of incomplete cytomix [ 32 ] was added to infected RBC (at 10-15% parasitemia), and electroporation was performed using a Bio-Rad Gene Pulsar unit at settings of 200 Ω, 2 kV, and 25 μF.
Results of blood counts, as summarized in Table 3, reveal no significant differences in white cell (WBC), in red blood cell (RBC) or in platelet (PLT) numbers due to two weeks of sE supplementation.
In the past few years, a number of phosphatase activities and putative sequences have been reported in P. falciparum [ 9 ] . These include a PP2A [ 10 ] , a PP2B-like activity [ 10 ] , a unique chimeric PP2C [ 11 ] , two putative sexual-stage phosphatases - PPα [ 12 ] and PPβ [ 13 ] , and a tetratricopeptide repeat-containing phosphatase, PP5 [ 14 ] . Preliminary studies revealed the presence of a protein phosphatase activity in crude extracts of RBC-grown P. falciparum that exhibited toxin-sensitivity resembling that of PP1 [ 15 ] . Uninfected RBC, in contrast, possessed mainly a PP2A-like activity.
