The development of cerebral malaria (CM) in mice with Plasmodium berghei ANKA infection is under genetic control. Brain gene-expression patterns were investigated in well-defined genetically CM-resistant (CM-R; BALB/c and DBA/2) and CM-susceptible (CM-S; C57BL/6 and CBA/J) mice by use of cDNA mic...
A number of linkage studies in human populations have identified a locus ( pfbi) on Chromosome 5q31-q33 controlling Plasmodiun falciparum blood infection levels. This region contains numerous candidate genes encoding immunological molecules such as cytokines, growth factors and growth-factor rec...

We have previously obtained strong evidence for linkage of mild malaria attack to the MHC region, with a peak close to the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) gene. We screened, for polymorphisms, the entire TNF gene in the same sample of 34 families comprising 197 individuals living in a Plasmodium falc...

We developed an F(11) AIL population from an F(1) cross of A/J (susceptible) and C57BL/6J (resistant) mouse strains. One thousand F(11) mice were challenged with P.c. chabaudi 54X, and 340 mice selected from the phenotypic extremes for susceptibility and resistance were genotyped for microsatel...

Susceptible A/J and more resistant C57BL/6J mice were infected with Plasmodium chabaudi chabaudi 54X, P.c. chabaudi AS and Plasmodium chabaudi adami 408XZ. As expected, most C57BL/6J mice survived the infections with the different isolates. But in contrast to previous observations, not all A/J ...
