Parasitic protozoa, including some which are agents of human and
veterinary diseases, display special cytoplasmic structures and
organelles. Metabolic pathways have been discovered in these
organelles which open up new possibilities for drug targets. This
work presents reviews dealing with cytoskeletal structures such as
the mastigont system found in trichomonads, the sub-pellicular
microtubules in trypanosomatids and the paraflagellar rod. Further
chapters cover structures involved in the synthesis, secretion and
uptake of molecules, including the flagellar pocket of
trypanosomatids, the reservosome of Trypanosoma and the megasome
found in Leishmania, the traffic of vesicles in Entamoeba
histolytica, secretory organelles and the secretory events of
intestinal parasites during encystation. Reviews on special
organelles, such as the kinetoplast-mitochondrion complex, the
apicoplast found in Apicomplexa, the glycosomes in Kinetoplastida
and the acidocalcisomes found in several protozoa complete the
volume.
