Polymorphism analysis of malaria susceptibility biomarkers in G6PD deficiency patients
Abstract Background: Several studies suggested that some traits and polymorphisms in human genome such as G6PD deficiency and other genes have protective effects on susceptibility to malaria infection . Methods: In present study we investigated the prevalence of TNF [1] -244GgA, TNF [1] - 308 GgA,TNF [1] -238GgA, NOS2-954GgC, MBL54GgA, MBL 57GgA, MBL IVSI - 5 GgA polymorphisms and G6P...

متن کاملCCL3L1 copy number and susceptibility to malaria
Copy number variation can contribute to the variation observed in susceptibility to complex diseases. Here we present the first study to investigate copy number variation of the chemokine gene CCL3L1 with susceptibility to malaria. We present a family-based genetic analysis of a Tanzanian population (n=922), using parasite load, mean number of clinical infections of malaria and haemoglobin leve...
متن کاملSusceptibility of Thai zoophilic Anophelines and suspected malaria vectors to local strains of human malaria parasites.
Wild caught zoophilic Anopheles and suspected malaria vector species collected in northwest Thailand were experimentally infected with local human malaria parasites using a membrane feeding. One week post-feeding a number of mosquitos were dissected for oocyst examination. The remainder were kept for another one week or more, and then the salivary glands were examined for the presence of sporoz...
متن کاملSusceptibility status of malaria vectors to insecticides commonly used for malaria control in Tanzania.
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to monitor the insecticide susceptibility status of malaria vectors in 12 sentinel districts of Tanzania. METHODS WHO standard methods were used to detect knock-down and mortality in the wild female Anopheles mosquitoes collected in sentinel districts. The WHO diagnostic doses of 0.05% deltamethrin, 0.05% lambdacyhalothrin, 0.75% permethrin and 4% DDT were u...
