Plasmodium vivax invasion of human erythrocytes inhibited by antibodies directed against the Duffy binding protein. by Brian T Grimberg, Rachanee Udomsangpetch, Jia Xainli, Amy McHenry, Tasanee Panichakul, Jetsumon Sattabongkot, Liwang Cui, Moses Bockarie, Chetan Chitnis, John Adams, Peter A Zimmerman, Christopher L King

“…<h4>Background</h4>Plasmodium vivax invasion requires interaction between the human Duffy antigen on the surface of erythrocytes and the P. vivax Duffy binding protein (PvDBP) expressed by the parasite. Given that Duffy-negative individuals are resistant and that Duffy-negative heterozygotes show reduced susceptibility to blood-stage infection, we hypothesized that antibodies directed against region two of P. vivax Duffy binding protein (PvDBPII) would inhibit P. vivax invasion of human erythrocytes.…”
