Genetic Polymorphisms of Mannose-Binding Lectin Do Not Influence Placental Malaria but Are Associated with Preterm Deliveries

During pregnancy, Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes (IE) sequester in the placenta where they induce pathology and increase the risk of low-birth-weight (LBW) babies. The innate immune mediator, mannose-binding lectin (MBL), enhances phagocytosis of pathogens. Since MBL is reported to bind...
