Genome-Wide Expression Analysis of Placental Malaria Reveals Features of Lymphoid Neogenesis during Chronic Infection
1 Jul 2007
Abstract excerpt
Chronic inflammation during placental malaria (PM) is most frequent in first time mothers and is associated with poor maternal and fetal outcomes. In the first genome-wide analysis of the local human response to sequestered malaria parasites, we identified genes associated with chronic PM and then localized the corresponding proteins and immune cell subsets in placental cryosections. B cell-related genes were...
