Long-Term Clinical Protection from Falciparum Malaria Is Strongly Associated with IgG3 Antibodies to Merozoite Surface Protein 3

Long-Term Clinical Protection from Falciparum Malaria Is Strongly Associated with IgG3 Antibodies to Merozoite Surface Protein 3

Using data from malaria cases in Senegal, Pierre Druilhe and colleagues found that antibodies of the IgG3 isotype directed to merozoite surface protein 3 (MSP3) were strongly predictive of clinical outcome.
