Early Interferon‐γ Response against<i>Plasmodium falciparum</i>Correlates with Interethnic Differences in Susceptibility to Parasitemia between Sympatric Fulani and Dogon in Mali

Abstract

These results underscore the value of early IFN-gamma responses to P. falciparum as a correlate of anti-parasite immunity, not only in this setting but also in the wider context of malaria, and support the development of malaria vaccines aimed at inducing such responses.
