Abstract

Human and rat C-reactive proteins, major acute-phase reactants, bind to sporozoites and inhibit their in vitro development in hepatocytes (A. Nussler, S. Pied, M. Pontet, F. Miltgen, L. Renia, M. Gentilini, and D. Mazier, Exp. Parasitol. 72:1-7, 1991, and S. Pied, A. Nussler, M. Pontet, F. Miltgen, H. Matile, P.-H. Lambert, and D. Mazier, Infect. Immun. 57:278-282, 1989). We show here that rabbit C-reactive protein has identical properties. Nevertheless, infection by Plasmodium yoelii sporozoites was not prevented in transgenic mice engineered to express rabbit C-reactive protein following induction of gluconeogenesis.
