ABSTRACT
Malaria is a kind of disease detrimental to human health and plasmodium is a critical pathogen in it. The immunity against foreign antigens including plasmodium could be divided into two categories, namely, adaptive immunity and innate im-munity. Innate immunity induces non-specific immune response, and is composed of monocyte,macrophage,γδT cell,DC,NK, and cytokines etc. Innate immunity cooperates with adaptive im-munity efficiently to protect against malaria. Meanwhile,autoph-agy is not only the cellular degrading process, but also gets in-volved in regulating immune system and defending against plas-modium infection. Therefore, elucidation of corresponding mechanism could provide proof for efficiently controlling and cu-ring malaria,developing related medicine and vaccine,and clin-ical treatment as well. This article reviews the constitution of in-nate immunity in malaria,related regulation mechanism and rel-evant therapeutic targets for it.
