NK cell-induced damage to P. falciparum-infected erythrocytes requires ligand-specific recognition and releases parasitophorous vacuoles that are phagocytosed by monocytes in the presence of immune IgG

P. Sekar, S. Rajagopalan, E. Shabani, U. Kanjee, M. Schurek, G. Arora, M. E. Peterson, B. Traore, P. D. Crompton, M. T. Duraisingh, S. A. Desai, E. O. Long

This study shows NK cells lyse P. falciparum-infected erythrocytes via ADCC, releasing parasitophorous vacuoles that are phagocytosed by monocytes in the presence of immune IgG.
