BACKGROUND: Sickle cell disease (SCD) remains prevalent because heterozygous carriers (HbAS) are partially resistant to Plasmodium falciparum malaria. Sickle hemoglobin (HbS) polymerization in low and intermediate oxygen (O2 ) conditions is the main driver of HbAS-driven resistance to P. falciparum malaria. However, epidemiological studies have reported mixed malaria morbidity and mortality outcomes in individuals with sickle cell disease (SCD). While maximum-tolerated dose hydroxyurea has been shown to lower malaria incidence, fetal hemoglobin (HbF), an inhibitor of HbS polymerization that is variably packaged in F-erythrocytes, might provide hemoglobin that is accessible to the parasite for feeding.
METHODS: To explore that risk, we examined the effect of variable mean corpuscular fetal hemoglobin (MCHF) on P. falciparum proliferation, invasion, and development in HbSS RBCs.
RESULTS: We found that greater MCHF in HbSS red blood cells (RBCs) is associated with increased P. falciparum proliferation in O2 environments comparable with the microcirculation. Moreover, both parasite invasion and intracellular growth, the major components of proliferation, occur predominantly in F-erythrocytes and are augmented with increasing MCHF.
CONCLUSIONS: HbF modifies P. falciparum infection in HbSS RBCs, further highlighting the complexity of the molecular interactions between these two diseases. Other inhibitors of HbS polymerization that do not increase HbF or F-erythrocytes should be independently assessed for their effects on P. falciparum malaria proliferation in HbSS RBCs.
