Antibody-Mediated Protection against Plasmodium Sporozoites Begins at the Dermal Inoculation Site
Studies in experimental animal models and humans have shown that antibodies against Plasmodium sporozoites abolish parasite infectivity and provide sterile immunity. While it is well documented that these antibodies can be induced after immunization with attenuated parasites or subunit vaccines, the...
