Plasmodium falciparum: malaria morbidity is associated with specific merozoite surface antigen 2 genotypes.

Experimental parasitology - 1 Aug 1995

Engelbrecht F, Felger I, Genton B, Alpers M, Beck H P

Abstract excerpt

Plasmodium falciparum merozoite surface antigen 2 (MSA2) is considered a vaccine candidate in a subunit vaccine against blood stage malaria. In order to test if a specific genotype of the highly polymorphic MSA2 is associated with disease, we conducted a case-control study in a malaria endemic area of Papua New Guinea involving 227 individuals, mostly children under the age of 10 years. All cases and controls...
