Insight into antigenic diversity of VAR2CSA-DBL5ε domain from multiple Plasmodium falciparum placental isolates.
Protection against pregnancy associated malaria (PAM) is associated with high levels of anti-VAR2CSA antibodies. This protection is obtained by the parity dependent acquisition of anti-VAR2CSA antibodies. Distinct parity-associated molecular signatures have been identified in VAR2CSA domains. These...
