CD8(+) T cells mediate robust stage-specific immunity to P. berghei under chemoprophylaxis and this protective environment is not downregulated by the presence of blood-stage infection.
Sterile protection against malaria infection can be achieved by the inoculation of intact sporozoites while treating concomitantly with the 4-aminoquinoline chloroquine. We present an analysis of protective immunity elicited by successive immunization with Plasmodium berghei sporozoites under chemop...
