An assessment of the impact of host polymorphisms on Plasmodium falciparum vargene expression patterns among Kenyan children
BACKGROUND: Host genotype accounts for a component of the variability in susceptibility to childhood Plasmodium falciparum malaria. However, despite numerous examples of host polymorphisms associated with tolerance or resistance to infection, direct evidence for an impact of host genetic polymorphis...
