Description

A malaria vaccine made of weakened parasites, given by mosquito bite, protects some volunteers in full, and blood clues may explain who. Tanisha Robinson and co-authors studied volunteers in controlled malaria cases after such immunization. They checked immune cells in the blood and how blood cells answered parasite matter in a dish. Two signals stood out with protection. One was interferon-gamma release on meeting the parasite. The other was interleukin-4 release after the vaccine, joined by a certain T cell pattern.
