vivax is not dependent on the Duffy antigen for establishing blood-stage infection and disease in Madagascar. The lynchpin responsible for resistance to vivax malaria has been that when the Duffy antigen is missing the parasite is not able to invade the red blood cell and cause disease. What has distinguished Duffy-negatives from all others was that the malaria parasite was unable to cross the threshold from liver cells to blood cells. vivax living dormant in their liver cells where it does not make people sick. It is understood that those with this blood type, can have P. The Case Western Reserve-Pasteur Institute team has documented their novel discovery with the first photographic evidence of the parasite’s presence within red blood cells of many Duffy-negative people experiencing malarial illness. vivax, the world’s most abundant malaria parasite, had made its way into the blood of Duffy-negative people, but until now, confirming evidence that the parasite had entered the red blood cells remained elusive. In recent years, researchers have begun to suspect that P. The Duffy-negative blood group, one of the more than 30 blood types, is predominant in most African ethnic groups. vivax blood-stage infection and clinical malaria. Since the early 1920s, it has been widely accepted that people of African ancestry are resistant to P. These findings were published in an upcoming issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America (PNAS). In a study of more than 600 individuals from eight communities covering the main malaria transmission areas of Madagascar, the researchers found that 10 percent of people experiencing clinical malaria were Duffy-negative and infected with P. vivax)malaria has been identified in a population historically thought to be resistant to the disease, those who do not express the Duffy blood group protein on their red blood cells, according to researchers from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, Pasteur Institute, and the Madagascar Ministry of Health.
