Prevalence and genetic variants of G6PD deficiency among malaria suspected patients in Shele and Lante Health Center, Southern Ethiopia

2022-05-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> The glucose-6 phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) enzyme is a cytoplasmic enzyme for all human cells, involves in the pentose phosphate pathway of metabolic reaction. It protects red blood cells from cellular oxidative damage by detoxifying free radicals. Primaquine can cause acute hemolytic anemia while administered for the treatment of malaria patients with G6PD deficiency. It is the first-line...
