- W2978786882 abstract "Abstract Incomplete non-sterile immunity to malaria is attained in endemic regions after recurrent infections by a large percentage of the adult population, who carry the malaria parasite asymptomatically. Although blood-stage Plasmodium falciparum rapidly elicits IgG responses, the target antigens of partially protective and non-protective IgG antibodies as well as the basis for the acquisition of these antibodies remain largely unknown. We performed IgG-immunomics to screen for P. falciparum antigens and to identify epitopes associated with exposure and clinical disease. Sera from malaria cases identified five prevalent antigens recognized by all analyzed patients’ IgGs. For further epitope mapping, peptide microarrays designed to cover their sequences were probed with a set of 38 sera samples from adult individuals of an endemic malaria region in Ghana. Eight 20-mer peptides with the highest affinity and frequency of recognition among the population were subsequently validated with 16 sera from the same region, segregated into patients with positive or negative subclinical detection of P. falciparum . Significant binding specificity for two immunodominant antigenic regions was uncovered within the START-related lipid transfer protein and the protein disulfide isomerase PDI8. These 20-mer peptides challenged with sera samples from children under 5 years old displayed specific IgG binding in those with detectable parasitemia, even at subclinical level. These results suggest that the humoral response against START and PDI8 antigens may be triggered even at submicroscopic parasitemia levels in children and may eventually be used to differentially diagnose subclinical malaria in children. Significance Malaria in Africa is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. The reservoirs of the malaria parasite are asymptomatic patients who carry it subclinically. Identifying the parasite antigens and its fragments that trigger the most common immunity response by immunoglobulin G that partially protect people can have profound implications for both, development of a malaria vaccine and diagnosis of the subclinical parasite carriers. Antigen discovery and mapping, validated with sera from subclinical carriers, showed that immunoglobulin G responses in children against parasite’s START and PDI8 may eventually be used to differentially diagnose non-infected from subclinical cases. Furthermore, anti-START and anti-PDI8 endemic immunodominance provides association of these antigens with long-term acquired immunity and immune evasion to malaria." @default.
