  1. 1. Immunological characteristics of recombinant fragments of the Plasmodium falciparum blood-stage antigen Pf332

    Författare :Halima A. Balogun; Klavs Berzins; Lars Hviid; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Plasmodium falciparum; Pf332; antibodies; immunity; growth inhibition; Immunology; Immunologi; immunologi; Immunology;

    Sammanfattning : Effective malaria vaccine might help improve control strategies against malaria, but the complexity of interactions between the parasite and its hosts poses challenges. The asexual blood stage P. falciparum antigen Pf332 has potentials as one of the proteins in understanding the complex host-parasite interactions. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Studies on Plasmodium falciparum asexual blood stage antigens : RAP-2/RSP-2 and Pf332 in focus

    Författare :Nancy Awah; Klavs Berzins; Marcel Hommel; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; immunity; malaria; RBCs; anaemia; Immunology; Immunologi; immunologi; Immunology;

    Sammanfattning : The life cycle of the malaria parasite is very complex and provides a number of potential targets for vaccination. In this thesis, data on two plasmodial asexual blood stage antigens (RAP-2 and Pf332) are presented. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Vaccine development strategies applied to the Plasmodium falciparum malaria antigen 332

    Författare :Nina-Maria Vasconcelos; Klavs Berzins; Matti Sällberg; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; malaria; sub-unit vaccines; immunogenicity; antibody response; antigen Pf332; Immunology; Immunologi;

    Sammanfattning : Malaria is one of the major infectious diseases in the world with regard to mortality and morbidity, and the development of a vaccine against the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum is considered of high priority. The aim of the work presented in this thesis was to develop and characterize recombinant vaccine constructs based on the P. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Immunological characteristics of a C-terminal fragment of the Plasmodium falciparum blood-stage antigen Pf332

    Författare :Halima Aramide Balogun; Klavs Berzins; Stockholms universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Till date, there are no effective control strategies against the deadly disease of malaria, and millions of children across Africa, Oceania, Asia, and Latin America are at the mercy of this long term enemy of man every second that passes by. Other control measures combined with vaccination might help improve control strategy against malaria, but the development of vaccines face various challenges as well, due to the complexity of the parasites’ life cycle and other host factors.
