Temporal stability of naturally acquired immunity to Merozoite Surface Protein-1 in Kenyan Adults (2009)

Dent, Arlene E, Chelimo, Kiprotich, Sumba, Peter O, Spring, Michele D, Crabb, Brendan S, Moormann, Ann M, ...

Abstract Background Naturally acquired immunity to blood-stage Plasmodium falciparum infection develops with age and after repeated infections. In order to identify immune surrogates that can inform...

Toll-like receptor polymorphisms in malaria-endemic populations (2009)

Greene, Jennifer A, Moormann, Ann M, Vulule, John, Bockarie, Moses J, Zimmerman, Peter A, Kazura, James W

Abstract Background Toll-like receptors (TLR) and related downstream signaling pathways of innate immunity have been implicated in the pathogenesis of Plasmodium falciparum malaria. Because of their...

Alterations on peripheral B cell subsets following an acute uncomplicated clinical malaria infection in children (2008)

Asito, Amolo S, Moormann, Ann M, Kiprotich, Chelimo, Ng'ang'a, Zipporah W, Ploutz-Snyder, Robert, Rochford, Rosemary

Abstract Background The effects of Plasmodium falciparum on B-cell homeostasis have not been well characterized. This study investigated whether an episode of acute malaria in young children results...

Low prevalence of antibodies to preerythrocytic but not blood-stage Plasmodium falciparum antigens in an area of unstable malaria transmission compared to prevalence in an area of stable malaria transmission. (2008)

Noland, Gregory S., Hendel-Paterson, Brett, Min, Xinan M., Moormann, Ann M., Vulule, John M., Narum, David L., ...

In areas where levels of transmission of Plasmodium falciparum are high and stable, the age-related acquisition of high-level immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies to preerythrocytic circumsporozoite...

Gamma interferon responses to Plasmodium falciparum liver-stage antigen 1 and thrombospondin-related adhesive protein and their relationship to age, transmission intensity, and protection against malaria. (2004)

John, Chandy C., Moormann, Ann M., Sumba, Peter O., Ofulla, Ayub V., Pregibon, Daniel C., Kazura, James W.

Gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) responses to the Plasmodium falciparum antigens liver-stage antigen 1 (LSA-1) and thrombospondin-related adhesive protein (TRAP) are thought to be important in protection...

Spatial clustering of endemic Burkitt's lymphoma in high-risk regions of Kenya

Rainey, Jeanette J., Omenah, Dorine, Sumba, Peter O., Moormann, Ann M., Rochford, Rosemary, Wilson, Mark L.

Endemic Burkitt's lymphoma (eBL), the most common childhood cancer in sub-Saharan Africa, occurs at a high incidence in western Kenya, a region that also experiences holoendemic malaria. Holoendemic...
