Monoclonal antibodies block transmission of genetically diverse Plasmodium falciparum strains to mosquitoes
Abstract Malaria parasite transmission to mosquitoes relies on the uptake of sexual stage parasites during a blood meal and subsequent formation of oocysts on the mosquito midgut wall. Transmission-blocking vaccines (TBVs) and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) target sexual stage antigens to interrupt hu...
