Ex-vivo cytoadherence phenotypes of Plasmodium falciparum strains from Malian children with hemoglobins A,S, and C.

Ex-vivo cytoadherence phenotypes of Plasmodium falciparum strains from Malian children with hemoglobins A,S, and C.

Sickle hemoglobin (Hb) S and HbC may protect against malaria by reducing the expression of Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1) on the surface of parasitized red blood cells (RBCs), thereby weakening their cytoadherence to microvascular endothelial cells (MVECs) and impai...
