Likewise, although EXP1 was suggested to be a GST that conjugates glutathione onto haematin and plays a potential role in the mode of action of chloroquine during the blood stage of infection (Lisewski et al., 2014; Lisewski et al., 2018), we have recently shown that it interacts with host hepatic ApoH and likely mediates its internalisation during the liver stage of the Pb life cycle (Sa et al., 2017). Here, XPO1 is linked to infection.
