Background TP53 has been shown to play a role in inflammatory processes, including malaria. We previously found that p53 attenuates parasite-induced inflammation and predicts clinical protection to Plasmodium falciparum infection in Malian children. Here, we investigated whether p53 codon 47 and 72 polymorphisms are associated with differential risk of P. falciparum infection and uncomplicated malaria in a prospective cohort study of malaria immunity. Methods p53 codon 47 and 72 polymorphisms were determined by sequencing TP53 exon 4 in 631 Malian children and adults enrolled in the Kalifabougou cohort study. The effects of these polymorphisms on the prospective risk of febrile malaria, incident parasitemia, and time to fever after incident parasitemia over 6 months of intense malaria transmission were assessed using Cox proportional hazards models. Results Confounders of malaria risk, including age and hemoglobin S or C, were similar between individuals with or without p53 S47 and R72 polymorphisms. Relative to their respective common variants, neither S47 nor R72 was associated with differences in prospective risk of febrile malaria, incident parasitemia, or febrile malaria after parasitemia. Conclusions These findings indicate that p53 codon 47 and 72 polymorphisms are not associated with protection against incident P. falciparum parasitemia or uncomplicated febrile malaria.
