Haptoglobin gene diversity and incidence of uncomplicated malaria among children in Iganga, Uganda.

Malaria journal - 26 Nov 2020

Lwanira Catherine N, Kironde Fred, Swedberg Göte

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Haptoglobin (Hp) is an acute phase protein that takes part in systemic regulation of haem during Plasmodium falciparum infections. Numerous genotypes of haptoglobin have been reported in malaria endemic populations. In this study, the relationship between haptoglobin genotypes and incidence of uncomplicated malaria in a cohort of children living in a malaria-endemic area of Uganda was determined....
