Analysis of IgG with specificity for variant surface antigens expressed by placental Plasmodium falciparum isolates

BACKGROUND: Pregnancy-associated malaria (PAM) is caused by Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes that can sequester in placental intervillous space by expressing particular variant surface antigens (VSA) that can mediate adhesion to chondroitin sulfate A (CSA) in vitro.
