  • Title: PfRH5 as a candidate vaccine for Plasmodium falciparum malaria.
    Author: Drew DR, Beeson JG.
    Journal: Trends Parasitol; 2015 Mar; 31(3):87-8. PubMed ID: 25704640.
    Abstract:
    PfRH5 has recently emerged as a strong vaccine candidate for Plasmodium falciparum malaria. Antibodies inhibit invasion of erythrocytes by merozoites and blood-stage replication, and PfRH5 is a significant target of acquired human immunity. Recent studies have shown protective efficacy of PfRH5 vaccines in a non-human primate model of malaria.
