Filarial-specific antibody response in east African bancroftian filariasis: effects of host infection, clinical disease, and filarial endemicity
Jaoko, Walter G.; Simonsen, Paul E.; Meyrowitsch, Dan W.; Estambale, Benson B.; Malecela-Lazaro, Mwele N. (The American Society of tropical medicine and hygiene, 2006)The effect of host infection, chronic clinical disease, and transmission intensity on the patterns of specific antibody responses in Bancroftian filariasis was assessed by analyzing specific IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, and IgE ... -
Immunoepidemiology of Wuchereria bancrofti infection: Parasite transmission intensity, Filaria-specific antibodies, and host immunity in two East African communities
Jaoko, Walter G.; Michael, Edwin; Meyrowitsch, Dan W.; Estambale, Benson B.; Malecela, Mwele N.; Simonsen, Paul E. (American Society for Microbiology, 2007)We compared the age profiles of infection and specific antibody intensities in two communities with different transmission levels in East Africa to examine the contribution of humoral responses to human immunity to the ...
