Blood vessel protein linked to deadly malaria brain complications
Researchers led by Dr Berendt at Oxford hospitals identify intercellular adhesion molecule 1 CAM1 as a key protein linking infected red cells to blood vessel walls. The finding, reported in Nature, suggests new drug targets to prevent brain involvement in severe malaria and cites prior roles for other proteins such as Dw and thrombospondin. Dr Pajardo of Stanford notes the work as important, citing that brain clotting drives over half of malaria deaths.
