Abdul Adamu sani wudil Why peoples with sickle cell anemae can not suffer from malaria diseases?3
yet all of the mechanisms are still not fully understood. Some mechanisms, including smaller numbers ofP. falciparumbeing able to infect sickled cells due to their shapes and increased rates of phagocytosis of infected sickled cells, have been accepted and supported for many years. Others, such as microRNAs entering the parasite and tampering with its genome, have only been considered more recently but have very strong supporting evidence.[7]These recent discoveries seem to be very promising for further attempts to curve rates of infection for all forms of malaria without relying on the presence of sickle cell trait.
