TLR9 polymorphisms in African populations: no association with severe malaria, but evidence of cis-variants acting on gene expression

BACKGROUND: During malaria infection the Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) is activated through induction with plasmodium DNA or another malaria motif not yet identified.
