Binding of non-immune IgM and α2M to P. falciparum-infected erythrocytes. a Representative flow cytometry histograms of field isolates from children with uncomplicated malaria (UM) and severe malaria (SM) in the presence of non-immune IgM (above) and α2M (below). b Binding of non-immune IgM (above) and α2M (below) to IEs from children with UM (closed symbols, n = 14) and SM (open symbols, n = 20) at 1 nM (p = 0.24 and p = 0.15), 10 nM (p = 0.07 and p = 0.07), and 100 nM (p = 0.15 and p = 0.06), respectively. A laboratory clone, HB3VAR06, it is included for comparison. Medians and interquartile ranges are shown. p value between UM and SM using Mann–Whitney test. Two independent experiments were done at each concentration
