Brain endothelial cells exposure to malaria parasites links type I interferon signalling to antigen presentation, immunoproteasome activation, endothelium disruption, and cellular metabolism

IntroductionCerebral malaria (CM) lethality is attributable to induction of brain edema induction but the cellular mechanisms involving brain microvascular endothelium in CM pathogenesis are unexplored.ResultsActivation of the STING-INFb-CXCL10 axis in brain endothelial cells (BECs) is a prominent c...
