Um<em> In Vitro</em> Modelo para medição de respostas imunes a Malária no Contexto do HIV co-infecção

Human co-infection is difficult to replicate in vitro. However, human malaria parasites can readily be cultured in vitro, as can freshly isolated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells naturally infected with HIV. This provides an excellent model for studying early immune responses to malaria parasites in the context of HIV co-infection.
