Article Synopsis
- * The study analyzed genetic differences in parasite alleles between infected mothers and their infants, using both genetic comparisons and Geographic Information System (GIS) tools to assess the distribution of these alleles.
- * Results indicated that infants exposed to specific glurp alleles from placental malaria are more susceptible to infections carrying the same alleles, regardless of where they lived, highlighting the significance of these alleles in early malaria infections.
Recent evidence suggests that salt-sensitive hypertension develops as a consequence of renal infiltration with immunocompetent cells. We investigated whether proteinuria, which is known to induce interstitial nephritis, causes salt-sensitive hypertension. Female Lewis rats received 2 g of BSA intraperitoneally daily for 2 wk.
