Navigating parasite antigen genetic diversity in the design of Plasmodium vivax serological exposure markers for malaria

2025-07-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Plasmodium vivax poses a major obstacle to malaria elimination because it can lie dormant in the liver for weeks or months before reactivating and causing a relapse of infection. These dormant forms (hypnozoites) cannot be detected using standard diagnostics, but recent P. vivax exposure and by proxy, hypnozoite carriage, can be inferred using antibody-based tests (serologic...
