Malaria remains a significant contributor to the global burden of disease, with around 40% of
the world's population at risk of Plasmodium infections. The development of an effective …

Infections with Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax cause over 600,000 deaths
each year, concentrated in Africa and in young children, but much of the world's population …

While half of the world's population is at risk of malaria, the most vulnerable are still children
under five, pregnant women and returning travelers. Anopheles mosquitoes transmit malaria …

Extreme diversity of the major Plasmodium falciparum antigen, PfEMP1, poses a barrier to
identifying targets of immunity to malaria. Here, we used protein microarrays containing …

Abstract Background Sequestration of Plasmodium falciparum–infected erythrocytes (IEs) in
the microvasculature contributes to pathogenesis of severe malaria in children. This …

The Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) consists of consumption of vegetables and healthy oils
and have beneficial effects on metabolic and inflammatory diseases. Our goal here is to …

BACKGROUND Malaria pathogenicity is determined, in part, by the adherence of
Plasmodium falciparum–infected erythrocytes to the microvasculature mediated via specific …

Background Antibodies to variant surface antigens (VSAs) such as Plasmodium falciparum
erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1) may vary with malaria severity. The influence of …

Background We investigated the poorly understood impact of declining malaria transmission
on maintenance of antibodies to Plasmodium falciparum merozoite antigens and infected …

Background Antibodies targeting malaria blood-stage antigens are important targets of
naturally acquired immunity, and may act as valuable biomarkers of malaria exposure …
