One of the key processes in the pathobiology of the malaria parasite is the invasion and subsequent modification of the human erythrocyte. In this complex process, an unknown number of parasite proteins are involved, some of which are leading vaccine candidates. The majority of the proteins that play pivotal roles in invasion are either stored in the apical secretory organelles or located on th...
BACKGROUND Antibodies targeting merozoites are important in protection from malaria. Therefore, merozoite surface proteins are attractive vaccine candidates. There is a need for robust functional assays to investigate mechanisms of acquired immunity and vaccine efficacy. To date, the study of merozoite phagocytosis has been confounded by the complexity and variability of in vitro assays. METH...
A flow cytometric phagocytosis assay was established to investigate the role of anti-merozoite antibody, complement, and cytokines on the phagocytosis of Plasmodium falciparum merozoites by human neutrophils. This assay involved allowing fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled merozoites to interact with phagocytes and analysis of the cells on a FACScan with Lysis II software. To differentiate the p...
This study shows markedly different isotype distributions of antibodies to asexual blood stages of Plasmodium falciparum and to merozoite surface protein 1 in clinically immune Senegalese adults depending on the study site. The relationships between immunoglobulin M (IgM) and IgG and between IgG3 and IgG1 antibodies differed in settings where transmission is perennial compared to settings where...
Results:The prevalence rates of SMI were 13.67% (38/278) at day 0 and 8.99% (25/278) at day 14 after sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine-artesunate treatment. Genotype analysis of two polymorphic regions of the merozoite surface protein (MSP)-1 block 2, MSP-2 and a dimorphic region of the erythrocyte binding antigen (EBA-175) revealed that as many as 88% (22/25) of SMI detected after treatment were compl...
Human antibodies to the block 2 region of Plasmodium falciparum merozoite surface protein 1 (MSP1) are associated with a reduced prospective risk of clinical malaria. Block 2 is highly polymorphic, but all known alleles can be grouped into three major types. Two of these types (the K1-like and MAD20-like types) contain type-specific sequences (found in all alleles of a particular type) that fla...
SummaryObjectives Maternal Plasmodium falciparum-specific antibodies may contribute to protect infants against severe malaria. Our main objective was evaluate the impact of maternal HIV infection and placental malaria on cord blood levels efficiency transfer IgG subclasses. Methods In a cohort 341 delivering HIV-negative HIV-positive mothers from southern Mozam...
