Haptoglobin genotypes are not associated with resistance to severe malaria in The Gambia.

Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene - 1 Jan 2000

Aucan Christophe, Walley Andrew J, Greenwood Brian M, Hill Adrian V S

Abstract excerpt

The influence of haptoglobin polymorphisms on severe malaria occurrence was assessed in 1183 individuals from The Gambia. No significant association was found between severe malaria and either haptoglobin genotypes or phenotypes. The advantages of using a deoxyribonucleic acid-based haptoglobin typing method are discussed.
