Malaria in pregnancy can expose the fetus to malaria-infected erythrocytes or their soluble products, thereby stimulating T and B cell immune responses to malaria blood stage antigens. We hypothesized that fetal immune priming, or malaria exposure in

Cord blood T cells have been reported to respond to a variety of exogenous Ags, including environmental allergens and various viruses and parasites, as demonstrated by enhanced proliferation and cytokine secretion. This finding is evidence that Ags i

Objective: To investigate the effect of helminth and/or malaria infection on the risk of HIV infection in pregnant women and its transmission to their offspring. Design: A retrospective cohort study of pregnant Kenyan women and their offspring from t

Bladder and kidney disease, which affect approximately 25%-30% of subjects infected with Schistosoma haematobium, are mediated by T cell-dependent granulomatous responses to schistosome eggs. To determine why only some infected subjects develop disea

This study examined the hypothesis that the nature of the host cellular immune response to schistosome ova is a risk factor for urinary tract morbidity in areas in which Schistosoma haematobium is endemic. S. haematobium-infected children and adolesc

Infants and children are routinely vaccinated with bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) in areas of the world where worm infections are common. Because maternal helminth infection during pregnancy can sensitize the developing fetus, we studied whether th

Human neonates are generally deficient in their ability to generate humoral immunity. This deficiency is thought to reflect physiologic immaturity of T and B cell function and lack of previous exposure to exogenous Ags. To determine whether neonatal

Neonates exposed to parasite antigens (Ags) in utero may develop altered fetal immunity that could affect subsequent responses to infection. We hypothesized that cord blood lymphocytes (CBL) from offspring of mothers residing in an area highly endemi
