NK cell-induced damage to P. falciparum-infected erythrocytes requires ligand-specific recognition and releases parasitophorous vacuoles that are phagocytosed by monocytes in the presence of immune IgG

P. Sekar, S. Rajagopalan, E. Shabani, U. Kanjee, M. Schurek, G. Arora, M. E. Peterson, B. Traore, P. D. Crompton, M. T. Duraisingh, S. A. Desai, E. O. Long

This study shows NK cells lyse P. falciparum-infected erythrocytes via ADCC, releasing parasitophorous vacuoles that are phagocytosed by monocytes in the presence of immune IgG.

NK cells inhibit Plasmodium falciparum growth in red blood cells via antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity

G. Arora, G. T. Hart, J. Manzella-Lapeira, J. Y. A. Doritchamou, D. L. Narum, M. Thomas, J. Brzostowski, S. Rajagopalan, O. K. Doumbo, B. Traore, L. Miller, S. K. Pierce, P. Duffy, P. D. Crompton, S. A. Desai, E. O. Long

The paper shows that antibodies from malaria-exposed individuals activate NK cells to lyse infected red blood cells and inhibit parasite growth via ADCC.
