11. Plasmodium falciparum-mediated modulation of innate immune cells: responses and regulation
Sammanfattning : Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum) infection modulates the response of innate immune cells. The aim of this work was to study the impact of P. falciparum infection and P. LÄS MER
12. Erythrocyte membrane associated Plasmodium falciparum antigens, involvement in immunity and sequestration
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
13. Uncovering the genetics underlying host-parasite interactions during Plasmodium falciparum malaria transmission
Sammanfattning : In eukaryotes, cellular differentiation is often orchestrated by programmed arrays of activation and repression of genes underlying the specific phenotypes of cell-types. To complete its life cycle, the single-celled Apicomplexan parasite Plasmodium falciparum, the most deadly of the human malaria parasites, must repeatedly differentiate and convert into unique cell types that can exploit niches within their human and mosquito hosts.

14. Immunological characteristics of recombinant fragments of the Plasmodium falciparum blood-stage antigen Pf332
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
15. Antibody responses and Fc gamma receptor IIa polymorphism in relation to Plasmodium falciparum malaria
Sammanfattning : Immunity to asexual blood-stage of Plasmodium falciparum malaria is believed to be associated with protective antibodies of certain immunoglobulin classes and subclasses. This thesis addressed the importance of antibodies in relation to malaria infection and their effective interactions with Fc gamma receptor IIa (FcyRIIa) polymorphisms. LÄS MER
