The goal of this study was to analyze antibody responses to Plasmodium falciparum glutamate-rich protein (GLURP) using clinical data and plasma samples obtained from villagers of Dielmo, Senegal. This molecule was chosen because it is targeted by human antibodies which induce parasite growth inhibition in antibody-dependent cellular inhibition (ADCI) assays. The results showed a strong correlation between protection against malaria attacks and levels of immunoglobulin G2 (IgG2) and IgG3 against GLURP(94-489) (R0) and IgG3 against GLURP(705-1178) (R2) when corrected for the confounding effect of age-related exposure to malaria. Thus, GLURP mag play a role in the induction of protective immunity against P. falciparum malaria.
