The host immune responses to Plasmodium falciparum: Part II--T-cell regulation of human immune responses to Pf155/RESA, a well-defined blood-stage antigen of Plasmodium falciparum: a review
Abstract
This review gives a brief summary of the T-cell epitopes in Pf155/RESA and how these T-cell epitopes on activation in vitro regulate Pf155/RESA-induced immune responses. It also discusses the genetic control of immune responses against Pf155/RESA.
