Journal ArticleDOI
IgG antibody responses to Plasmodium falciparum merozoite antigens in Kenyan children have a short half-life
TL;DR: This study indicates antibodies against merozoite antigens have very short half-lives and this has to be taken into account when designing serological studies and vaccines based on the antIGens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strengthening capacity for health research in Africa
James A. G. Whitworth,Gilbert Kokwaro,Samson M. Kinyanjui,Valerie A. Snewin,Marcel Tanner,Mark Walport,Nelson K. Sewankambo +6 more
TL;DR: Significant challenges remain for sub-Saharan Africa to establish a common framework for sustainable research capacity strengthening, including those supported by WHO and Tropical Disease Research.
Journal ArticleDOI
HIV Infection, Malnutrition, and Invasive Bacterial Infection among Children with Severe Malaria

TL;DR: HIV, malnutrition and IBI are biologically associated with severe disease due to falciparum malaria rather than being simply alternative diagnoses in co-incidentally parasitized children in an endemic area.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetics of antibody responses to Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocyte variant surface antigens
TL;DR: The kinetics of antibody responses to the Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasite-induced erythrocyte surface antigens in 26 Kenyan children suggest that children vary widely in their ability to respond to PIESAs and that short-lived antibody responses are induced that may be associated with poor antibody class switching.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is suggested that merozoite-specific IgM is an important functional and long-lived antibody response targeting blood-stage malaria parasites that contributes to malaria immunity.
