Abstract excerpt

We have investigated the possible associations between polymorphisms in two interleukin-1 (IL-1) genes and severity of Plasmodium falciparum malaria in Ghanaian children with cerebral malaria, severe anaemia or uncomplicated malaria and controls. There was no significant difference in genotype and allele frequencies in IL-1beta exon 5 or interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) polymorphisms between the studied...
