ABSTRACT Individuals living in regions of intense malaria transmission exhibit natural immunity that facilitates persistence of parasitemia at controlled densities for much of the time without symptoms. This aspect of immunity has been referred to as malarial “tolerance” and is thought to partly involve inhibition of the chain of events initiated by a parasite toxin(s) that may otherwise result in cytokine release and symptoms such as fever. Antibodies to the candidate Plasmodium falciparum… CONTINUE READING

Observational Clinical Trial
This study will examine whether resistance to severe malaria is associated with weakening of
a specific immune response (TLR-mediated pro-inflammatory cytokine response). Some children… Expand
