Mutant PfCRT Can Mediate Piperaquine Resistance in African Plasmodium falciparum With Reduced Fitness and Increased Susceptibility to Other Antimalarials
BACKGROUND: Additional therapeutic strategies could benefit efforts to reverse the recent increase in malaria cases in sub-Saharan Africa, which mostly affects young children. A primary candidate is dihydroartemisinin + piperaquine (DHA + PPQ), which is effective for uncomplicated malaria treatment,...
