Some children in Africa who show a level of immunity to malaria may provide a clue in the development of an effective vaccine against the disease.
A group of researchers from the University of Ghana, the University of Copenhagen, and the University of Khartoum have discovered that these children have higher levels of certain antibodies which may protect them from infection.
Lead author D. Dodoo and colleagues reported their findings in the June 2001 issue of the journal Infection and Immunity.
Previous research has suggested that antibodies directed against a key protein (PfEMP1) on the surface of Plasmodium falciparum, the parasite that causes malaria, may be an important element in immunity to the disease. In this study, the researchers tested levels of PfEMP1 antibodies and other antibodies directed against proteins on infected cells in children in ...
