Natural killer cell antibody‐dependent cellular cytotoxicity to Plasmodium falciparum is impacted by cellular phenotypes, erythrocyte polymorphisms, parasite diversity and intensity of transmission

Abstract Objectives Natural killer (NK) cells make important contributions to anti‐malarial immunity through antibody‐dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), but the role of different components of this pathway in promoting NK cell activation remains unclear. Methods We compared the functions and ph...
