Proteome Analysis of Plasmodium falciparum Extracellular Secretory Antigens at Asexual Blood Stages Reveals a Cohort of Proteins with Possible Roles in Immune Modulation and Signaling

Abstract excerpt

The highly co-evolved relationship of parasites and their hosts appears to include modulation of host immune signals, although the molecular mechanisms involved in the host-parasite interplay remain poorly understood. Characterization of these key genes and their cognate proteins related to the host-parasite interplay should lead to a better understanding of this intriguing biological phenomenon. The malaria...
