Cytotoxic activities of CD8+ T cells collaborate with macrophages to protect against blood-stage murine malaria

The protective immunity afforded by CD8+ T cells against blood-stage malaria remains controversial because no MHC class I molecules are displayed on parasite-infected human erythrocytes. We recently reported that rodent malaria parasites infect erythroblasts that express major histocompatibility com...
