Naturally acquired immunity and reduced susceptibility to falciparum malaria in two subpopulations of endemic eastern India.
|
| description: |
Overall higher antibody titers were observed in the PT population compared to the KF population. There was an age-wise increasing trend in antibody prevalence in both areas. While responses were similar in the adults from each area (98 and 96%, respectively), the response in the two groups of children were much higher in the PT area (80% and 95% PT compared to 45% and 76% KF). The differences were associated with differences in endemicity. Responses to the MSP-1 epitope were highest. There was also a significant association between sero-positivity and parasite positivity among all subjects.
