Abstract excerpt

Human ficolin-2 (L-ficolin; FCN2) is a serum protein binding to sugar moieties of different human micro-pathogens forcing phagocytosis. Here, we investigate the clinical significance of FCN2 in African children with either mild or severe malaria (n = 130 and n = 108, respectively) from Gabon by a...
