Abstract
⺠Do Plasmodium parasites trigger innate immunity while replicating and developing within the parasitophorous vacuole? ⺠If so, how and which type of innate immune response do sporozoites trigger in the liver? ⺠Which mechanisms do parasites use to escape host detection and the immune response? ⺠What is the role of innate immunity in the onset of malaria-associated pathology? ⺠What are possible strategies to prevent or intervene with immunopathology?
