After stimulation of ECs with plasma from malaria patients, we could measure an increased amount in the culture supernatants for IL-11, CXCL5, CXCL8, CXCL10, VEGF and ANGPTL4 (only if plasma of malaria patients with a parasitaemia >2.5% were used) compared to stimulation with plasma from healthy individuals. This evidence concerns the gene CXCL8 and malaria.
