Human red blood cell polymorphisms prevalent in Colombian population and its protective role against malaria.

Transfusion clinique et biologique : journal de la Societe francaise de transfusion sanguine - 1 Feb 2019

Contreras N, Alvíz A

Abstract excerpt

The populations infected with malaria have developed genetic defense mechanisms in order to protect themselves against the most serious complications of this disease. Those mechanisms have been associated from the perspective of co-adaptive process with some genetic diseases widely present in humans as sickle-cell disease, sickle cell trait and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PD). Biochemically,...
