Hemoglobin C is associated with reduced Plasmodium falciparum parasitemia and low risk of mild malaria attack.

Human molecular genetics - 1 Jan 2004

Rihet Pascal, Flori Laurence, Tall Francois, Traore Alfred S, Fumoux Francis

Abstract excerpt

Genetic predisposition to malaria has been shown by epidemiological, case-control and linkage studies. In particular, case-control studies have recently shown association between hemoglobin C and resistance to severe malaria in Mali and to clinical malaria in Burkina Faso. In a longitudinal study of families living in an endemic area, we investigated whether hemoglobin C is associated with reduced Plasmodium...
