Erythrocytes carrying a variant hemoglobin allele (HbS), which causes sickle cell disease, resist infection by the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. The molecular basis of this resistance, which has long been recognized as multifactorial, remains incompletely understood. Here we show that the dysregulated microRNA composition, of either heterozygous HbAS or homozygous HbSS erythrocytes, contributes to resistance against P. falciparum. During the intraerythrocytic lifecycle of P. falciparum, a subset of erythrocyte microRNAs translocate into the parasite. Two microRNAs, miR-451 and let-7i, were highly enriched in HbAS and HbSS erythrocytes and these miRNAs, along with miR-223, negatively regulated parasite growth. Surprisingly, we found that miR-451 and let-7i integrated into essential parasite mRNAs and, via impaired ribosomal loading, resulted in translational inhibition. Hence, sickle cell erythrocytes exhibit cell-intrinsic resistance to malaria in part through an atypical microRNA activity which may represent a unique host defense strategy against complex eukaryotic pathogens.
