Inhibition of Plasmodium falciparum growth by IgG antibody produced by human lymphocytes transformed with Epstein-Barr virus.
Supernatants from Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)--stimulated B lymphocytes obtained from two adult Gambians who were partially immune to malaria markedly inhibited the growth of Plasmodium falciparum in vitro (55-95% inhibition). When 22 separate colonies were derived by micromanipulation from one of thes...
