PG - 53-8 LID - 10.1111/tan.12140 [doi] AB - Host and Plasmodium interactions result in highly variable clinical phenotypes, partly explained by the nature and level of anti-malarial antibody response. Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-G can create a tolerogenic environment, allowing parasites to escape from anti-malarial immunity. We performed a family-based association study encompassing 483 Sereer individuals (261 children and their parents), and reported two independent signals at the HLA-G 3' untranslated region associated with antibody response to specific Plasmodium falciparum blood stage antigens, previously associated with malaria protection: (i) +3010G together with +3142C with total IgG and IgG1 against GLURP and (ii) +3196G with IgG3 against MSP2. While these results require further investigation, they suggest for the first time a role of HLA-G in the regulation of humoral immune response in malaria. CI - (c) 2013 John Wiley & Sons A/S.
