(− 7402 T/G and-4729G/A) condition susceptibility to pediatric severe malarial anemia but not circulating IL-13 levels
Okumu, Wilson; Okeyo, Winnie A; Munde, Elly O; Raballah, Evans; Anyona, Samuel B; Vulule, John M; Ong’echa, John M; Perkins, Douglas J; Ouma, Collins (Bio Med Central, 2013)In holoendemic Plasmodium falciparum transmission areas such as western Kenya, severe malarial anemia [SMA, hemoglobin (Hb) < 6.0 g/dL, with any density parasitemia] is the most common clinical manifestation of severe ... -
Elly O. Munde, Winnie A. Okeyo, Samwel B. Anyona, Evans
Okumu, Wilson; Vulule, John; Ouma, Collins; Raballah, Stephen Konah; Ogonda, Lilian (2012)An understanding of the immunogenetic basis of naturally acquired immunity to Plasmodium falciparum infection would aid in the designing of a rationally based malaria vaccine. Variants within the Fc gamma receptors (Fc ... -

The lipid acyl-chain dynamics in giant liposomes and characterization of domain 4 of the Wilson disease protein
Okumu, Wilson (2010)Steady-state and nanosecond time-resolved fluorescence of the nitro-2, 1, 3- benzoxadiazol-4-yl (NBD) probe and line tension force were determined in phospholipids acyl-chain dynamics in giant liposomes made from a homologous ... -
