Sickle-trait hemoglobin does not influence <i>Anopheles</i> biting rates

2025-11-17

Abstract excerpt

Children with sickle cell trait (HbAS) are protected against severe and symptomatic Plasmodium falciparum malaria. While several within-host resistance mechanisms have been investigated, it is unknown whether this protection may be attributable in part to reductions in exposure to P. falciparum parasites via mosquito bites. In a 15-month cohort in Western Kenya, we matched mosquito bloodmeals to human hosts base...
