Malaria and erythrocyte glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase variants in West Africa.

U Bienzle, I Guggenmoos-Holzmann, L Luzzatto.   

Abstract

In a clinical study, 702 Nigerian children aged 1-6 years were examined for malaria. Comparison of morbidity rates and parasitemia of patients with different glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) status provided evidence that in heterozygous females the gene for G6PD deficiency (GdA-/GdB) confers an advantage against malaria.
