Nevertheless, no studies are available for P. vivax-associated anemia, but since our immunoproteomic data suggest the presence of antibodies for band 3 and for associated cytoskeletal proteins, and also considering that antibodies for those proteins are involved in RBC clearance29, further investigation of contribution of these antibodies to the pathogenesis of vivax-associated anemia is necessary. Here, DNM2 is linked to anemia (phenotype).
