Association of cytokine and Toll-like receptor gene polymorphisms with severe malaria in three regions of Cameroon.

Association of cytokine and Toll-like receptor gene polymorphisms with severe malaria in three regions of Cameroon.

P. falciparum malaria is one of the most widespread and deadliest infectious diseases in children under five years in endemic areas. The disease has been a strong force for evolutionary selection in the human genome, and uncovering the critical human genetic factors that confer resistance to the dis...
