Abstract:
Antibody to RESA of plasmodium falciparum from malaria patients in Xishuangbaina were tested by RE-SA-IFA. The positive rate of the antibody to RESA in falciparum malaria patients was 22. 0% (9/41), 8. 3% (1/12) in mixed falciparum and virax infections, and negative in 38 vivax patients. TheGMRT of serum titer from patients with positive anti-RESA antibody and from those with negative results by IFA was 1552.1 and 741. 8 respectively (with significant difference statistically). The parasite densities in patients with anti-RESA antibody were lower in comparing with those patients with no anti-RESA antibody. These findings indicated that there was a parallel relationship between ami-RESA antibody liters and the acquisition of clinical immunity in malaria patients.
