Differential Effect of Extracellular Vesicles Derived from Plasmodium falciparum-Infected Red Blood Cells on Monocyte Polarization

Abstract: Malaria is a life-threatening tropical arthropod-borne disease caused by Plasmodium spp. Monocytes are the primary immune cells to eliminate malaria-infected red blood cells. Thus, the monocyte’s functions are one of the crucial factors in controlling parasite growth. It is reasoned that the activation or modulation of monocyte function by parasite products might dictate the rate of disease progression. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), microvesicles, and exosomes, released from infected red blood cells, mediate i… Show more

“…EVs derived from P. falciparum or P. berghei-infected RBCs have the capacity to activate the innate immune response by releasing both pro-inflammatory and antiinflammatory cytokines (Couper et al, 2010;Mantel et al, 2013). Additionally, monocytes have the ability to uptake EVs secreted by P. falciparum-infected RBCs (Pf-EVs), leading to monocyte activation and an increased proportion of M2-like intermediate monocytes (Couper et al, 2010;Khowawisetsut et al, 2023). Consequently, these EVs might contribute to the initiation of the observed "cytokine storm" during the initial stages of malaria infection.…”
