Willie B, Hall N, Stein C, Jurevic R, Weinberg A, Mehlotra R, et al.
Genes Immun . 2014 Sep; 15(8):569-77. PMID: 25253287
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in Toll-like receptor (TLR) genes TLR2-4 and TLR7-9, but not in TLR1 and TLR6, have been previously evaluated regarding human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) acquisition and disease progression...

Mehlotra R, Zimmerman P, Weinberg A, Jurevic R
Int J Immunogenet . 2012 Dec; 40(4):261-9. PMID: 23194186
Human β-defensin 2 (hBD-2) and hBD-3, encoded by DEFB4 and DEFB103A, respectively, have shown anti-HIV activity, and both genes exhibit copy number variation (CNV). Although the role of hBD-1, encoded...

Tavul L, Mueller I, Rare L, Lin E, Zimmerman P, Reeder J, et al.
P N G Med J . 2010 Nov; 51(3-4):149-54. PMID: 21061946
The high frequencies of mutant haemoglobin and erythrocyte surface proteins in malaria-endemic regions have indicated that polymorphisms in human genes have been under selection pressure by severe malarial disease. Glycophorin...

Gurarie D, Zimmerman P, King C
J Theor Biol . 2005 Nov; 240(2):185-99. PMID: 16263133
Our increasing appreciation of the high prevalence of mixed-species Plasmodium infection in malaria-endemic regions has resulted in controversy regarding the likely mechanism(s) of regulation for mixed parasite burden within an...

Woolley I, Wood E, Sramkoski R, Zimmerman P, Miller J, Kazura J
Immunohematology . 2005 Mar; 21(1):15-20. PMID: 15783301
Flow cytometric methods commonly used to identify reticulocytes are of limited usefulness in malarious areas, since RNA staining also detects plasmodia. An important antigen expressed on reticulocytes is Duffy antigen...

Hise A, Hazlett F, Bockarie M, Zimmerman P, Tisch D, Kazura J
Genes Immun . 2003 Oct; 4(7):524-7. PMID: 14551607
We examined 906 residents of an area of Papua New Guinea where bancroftian filariasis is endemic for genetic polymorphisms in three innate immunity genes suspected of contributing to susceptibility to...

Zimmerman P, Fitness J, Moulds J, McNamara D, Kasehagen L, Rowe J, et al.
Genes Immun . 2003 Jul; 4(5):368-73. PMID: 12847553
The Knops blood group antigen erythrocyte polymorphisms have been associated with reduced falciparum malaria-based in vitro rosette formation (putative malaria virulence factor). Having previously identified single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the...

Moulds J, Zimmerman P, Doumbo O, Diallo D, Atkinson J, Hourcade D, et al.
Transfusion . 2002 Mar; 42(2):251-6. PMID: 11896343
Background: Complement receptor type 1 (CR1), which bears the Knops (Kn [KN]) blood group antigens, is involved in the rosetting of Plasmodium falciparum- infected RBCs with uninfected cells. As a...

Woolley I, Kalayjian R, Valdez H, Hamza N, Jacobs G, Lederman M, et al.
J Nephrol . 2001 Dec; 14(5):384-7. PMID: 11730271
Background And Objectives: HIV nephropathy (HIVAN) is markedly racially biased in its distribution, occurring in about 10% of HIV infected African Americans according to some studies. Based upon previous laboratory...

Blood . 2001 Nov; 98(12):3489-91. PMID: 11719395
Erythrocyte polymorphisms, including ovalocytosis, have been associated with protection against malaria. This study in the Wosera, a malaria holoendemic region of Papua New Guinea, examined the genetic basis of ovalocytosis...
