ARG1 and malaria: Of note that among the genes included in this signature, some have already been involved in the development of clinical forms of malaria, and either encode for proteins of erythrocytic surface membrane ANK1 and GYPC (Table 1) or for inflammatory/immune components CXCL10, CCL2, CXCR2, VWA1, CD177, IL1R2, ARG1, IL2RA, and CXCL2 (Figure 1(a), Table 1).
