Antigenic variation in Plasmodium falciparum.
Open accessAbstract
Antigenic variation of infectious organisms is a major factor in evasion of the host immune response. However, there has been no definitive demonstration of this phenomenon in the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. In this study, cloned parasites were examined serologically and biochemically for the expression of erythrocyte surface antigens. A cloned line of P. falciparum gave rise to progeny that expressed antigenically distinct forms of an erythrocyte surface antigen but were otherwise identical. This demonstrates that antigenic differences on the surface of P. falciparum-infected erythrocytes can arise by antigenic variation of clonal parasite populations. The antigenic differences were shown to result from antigenic variation of the parasite-encoded protein, the P. falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
