Evidence for limited activation of distinct CD4+ T cell subsets in response to the <em>Plasmodium falciparum </em>circumsporozoite protein in Papua... (Publications)
Both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, as well as antibody, are known to be important in sporozoite immunity. Data from animal studies suggest that cytokines, in particular gamma-interferon and interleukin-6, ar
The use of untreated bednets and malaria infection, morbidity and immunity (Publications)
The effect of bednet use was investigated, without undertaking a specific intervention, in four cross-sectional community-based surveys in 10 villages of a highly endemic area of Papua New Guinea. Ove
Severe dental fluorosis in juvenile deer linked to a recent volcanic eruption in patagonia (Publications)
The Puyehue-Cordon Caulle volcanic eruption deposited large amounts of tephra (ashes) on about 36 million ha of Argentina in June of 2011. Tephra was considered chemically innoxious based on water lea
Cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) low-responsiveness to the <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> circumsporozoite protein in naturally-exposed endemic... (Publications)
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) specific for epitope(s) within the circumsporozoite (CS) protein of malaria sporozoites have been shown to play an important role in protective immunity against malaria,
Antigens released at schizont burst stimulate <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em>-specific CD4+ T cells from non-exposed donors: potential for... (Publications)
In an individual experiencing the first attack of malaria, symptoms of disease can occur at very low parasitemia. T cells and cytokines have been implicated in the etiology of disease symptoms, and ot
