Haemozoin Induces Early Cytokine-Mediated Lysozyme Release from Human Monocytes through p38 MAPK- and NF-kappaB- Dependent Mechanisms

Malarial pigment (natural haemozoin, HZ) is a ferriprotoporphyrin IX crystal produced by Plasmodium parasites after haemoglobin catabolism. HZ-fed human monocytes are functionally compromised, releasing increased amounts of pro-inflammatory molecules, including cytokines, chemokines and cytokine-rel...
