Discriminating Protective from Nonprotective Plasmodium-Specific CD8+ T Cell Responses
16 Apr 2016

Despite decades of research, malaria remains a global health crisis. Current subunit vaccine approaches do not provide efficient long-term, sterilizing immunity against Plasmodium infections in humans. Conversely, whole parasite vaccinations with their larger array of target Ags have conferred long-lasting sterilizing protection to humans.
