Impact of a Plasmodium falciparum AMA1 Vaccine on Antibody Responses in Adult Malians
BACKGROUND Apical Membrane Antigen 1 (AMA1) of Plasmodium falciparum merozoites is a leading blood-stage malaria vaccine candidate. Protection of Aotus monkeys after vaccination with AMA1 correlates with antibody responses. STUDY DESIGN/RESULTS A randomized, controlled, double-blind phase 1 clinical trial was conducted in 54 healthy Malian adults living in an area of intense seasonal malaria ...
متن کاملThe Use of Crude Plasmodium falciparum Antigens for Comparison of Antibody Responses in Patients with Mild Malaria vs. Cerebral Malaria
Background: Cerebral malaria (CM) is one of the major causes of death in African populations infected with Plasmodium falciparum. Only 1% of infected subjects develop CM. The reasons for these differences are not fully understood, but it is likely that the host humoral response against blood-stage antigens plays a role in protection from malaria, although the precise targets and mechanisms medi...

Antibody Responses to Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax and Prospective Risk of Plasmodium spp. Infection Postpartum
AbstractPostpartum women may have an altered susceptibility to Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax. The relationship between naturally acquired malarial immunity and susceptibility to malaria postpartum is yet to be determined. IgG levels were measured against P. falciparum and P. vivax antigens from delivery in 201 postpartum and 201 nonpregnant controls over 12 weeks. Associations betw...
متن کاملIgGl and IgG2 antibody responses to Plasmodium falciparum
In Manarintsoa, near Antananarivo, Madagascar, two groups of patients were defined in terms of malaria clinical immune status: Group MA+ consisted of 36 patients who suffered from between one to four malaria attacks (MA) during the 20-week study, and Group MAwho comprised of 48 persons who did not have any malaria attacks during this time. In group MA+, IgM and IgG antibody levels to Plasmodium...
