Humoral response to a carboxyl-terminal region of the merozoite surface protein-1 plays a predominant role in controlling blood-stage infection in rodent malaria
1 Jul 1995
Abstract excerpt
The developmental stages of malaria parasites that infect E are responsible for the morbidity and mortality associated with this disease. One of the leading candidates for a blood-stage vaccine against malaria is a surface protein of merozoites, the infectious stages for E, designated merozoite surface protein-1 (MSP-1). The rodent malarial parasite Plasmodium yoelii yoelii (Py) has provided a model system for...
