α-Thalassemia Impairs the Cytoadherence of Plasmodium falciparum-Infected Erythrocytes
BACKGROUND: α-thalassemia results from decreased production of α-globin chains that make up part of hemoglobin tetramers (Hb; α(2)β(2)) and affects up to 50% of individuals in some regions of sub-Saharan Africa. Heterozygous (−α/αα) and homozygous (−α/−α) genotypes are associated with reduced risk o...
