A vaccination strategy to prevent experimental cerebral malaria.
Infection of C57BL/6 mice with Plasmodium berghei ANKA (PbA) induces a syndrome called experimental cerebral malaria (ECM) in mice, commonly used as a model to study cerebral malaria (CM) in humans, a major complication of Plasmodium falciparum infection.
