Abstract: Severe malarial anemia (SMA, Hb < 6.0 g/dL) is a leading cause of childhood morbidity and mortality in holoendemic Plasmodium falciparum transmission zones. This study explored the entire expressed human transcriptome in whole blood from 66 Kenyan children with non-SMA (Hb36.0 g/dL, n = 41) and SMA (n = 25), focusing on host immune response networks. RNA-seq analysis revealed 6862 differentially expressed genes, with equally distributed up-and down-regulated genes, indicating a complex host immune response.… Show more
