Monoclonal Antibodies against Plasmodium falciparum Circumsporozoite Protein
Malaria is a mosquito-borne infectious disease caused by the parasite Plasmodium spp. Malaria continues to have a devastating impact on human health. Sporozoites are the infective forms of the parasite inside mosquito salivary glands. Circumsporozoite protein (CSP) is a major and immunodominant protective antigen on the surface of Plasmodium sporozoites. Here, we report a generation of specific...

genetic diversity in the circumsporozoite protein gene of plasmodium falciparum from major endemic regions of iran
circumsporozoite protein (csp) is one of the stage specific antigens, which is used for the development of vaccines and to investigate the genetic diversity in plasmodium falciparum malaria parasite. polymerase chain reaction was used for typing of csp genes on 67 positive falciparum malaria patients from sistan and baluchistan province of iran. three fragments were detected for csp gene. twent...
متن کاملCircumsporozoite protein genes of malaria parasites (Plasmodium spp.): evidence for positive selection on immunogenic regions.
The circumsporozoite (CS) protein is a cell surface protein of the sporozoite, the stage of the life cycle of malaria parasites (Plasmodium spp.) that infects the vertebrate host. Analysis of DNA sequences supports the hypothesis that in Plasmodium falciparum, positive Darwinian selection favors diversity in the T-cell epitopes (peptides presented to T cells by host MHC molecules) of the CS pro...
متن کاملEffect of antibodies on the expression of Plasmodium falciparum circumsporozoite protein gene
Antibodies are known to play an important role in the control of malaria infection. However, they can modulate parasite development enhancing infection. The effect of anti-Plasmodium antibodies on the expression of circumsporozoite protein gene (csp) was investigated. Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 in vitro cultures were submitted to: i) anti- circumsporozoite protein monoclonal antibody (anti-CSP-m...
