Ex-Vivo Cytoadherence Phenotypes of Plasmodium falciparum Strains from Malian Children with Hemoglobins A, S, and C

Sickle hemoglobin (Hb) S and HbC may protect against malaria by reducing the expression of Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1) on the surface of parasitized red blood cells (RBCs), thereby weakening their cytoadherence to microvascular endothelial cells (MVECs) and impairin...
