Malaria parasites may promote malaria pathogenesis by triggering MCs, which expand a unique class of dendritic cells with the subsequent activation of pathogenic CD8+ T cells. However, MCs may have additional regulatory functions. Selective inhibition of MC activation may serve as an adjuvant treatment.
