Cerebral malaria is a severe neurovascular complication of Plasmodium falciparum with high mortality, even after treatment effective antimalarials. A better understanding pathogenic mechanisms could help future development adjunctive therapies, yet limitations in current experimental models have hindered our knowledge the disease. We developed 3D blood-brain barrier model enhanced properties using primary brain endothelial cells, astrocytes and pericytes. Exposure to parasite egress products...
