Summary
Malaria is common worldwide, affecting 600 million people. As with many infectious diseases, it the severity of a malaria infection is not only dictated by the parasite, but also the body’s immune response to the infection. This study looks at cells that contribute to the immediate immune response in two major clinical syndromes of malaria affecting women and children: cerebral malaria and malaria of pregnancy. By understanding the immune response, we gain insights into how to limit disease.
