• How malaria has affected the human genome and what human genetics can teach us about malaria. (2005, background): “Interferon-g, encoded by IFNG, is a key immunological mediator that is believed to play both a protective and a pathological role in malaria (Stevenson and Riley 2004).”
• Toll-like receptor 9 mediates innate immune activation by the malaria pigment hemozoin (2005, background): “Due to a complex life cycle and rapid polymorphism of parasite antigens, host–parasite interactions and resulting innate immune responses to malaria parasites are still poorly understood despite the urgent necessity of effective immunotherapeutic interventions (1, 2).”
