Resistance to Falciparum malaria in α‐thalassemia, oxidative stress, and hemoglobin oxidation
A recent survey conducted on Vanuatu Island suggests that resistance to Plasmodium falciparum in alpha-thalassemic individuals may have an immunological basis. This study is important since it seems to undermine the current idea that red-cell genetic defects give protection against falciparum malaria by reducing intraerythrocytic growth and development of the parasite. However, the mechanisms underlying these clinical and genetic observations are…

Interaction between oxidized hemoglobin and the cell membrane: A common basis for severalfalciparum malaria-linked genetic traits
This paper focuses on the interaction between oxidized hemoglobin and the erythrocyte membrane, and its relevance to some falciparum malaria-linked genetic traits. We first present the experimental evidence which suggests that the interaction between hemoglobin derivatives and membrane proteins is an important cellular mechanism for the erythrocytes carrying HbS, HbE, HbF, α- and β-thalassemia, and G6PD deficiency. Thereafter, we show how the Hb/…
