In vitro susceptibility of Plasmodium falciparum isolates from the China-Myanmar border area to artemisinins and correlation with K13 mutations
9 Apr 2019
Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the Kelch domain of the K13 gene (PF3D7_1343700) were previously associated with artemisinin resistance in Plasmodium falciparum . This study followed the dynamics of the K13 polymorphisms in P. falciparum parasites from the China-Myanmar border area obtained in 2007–2016, and their in vitro sensitivities to artesunate (AS) and dihydroartemisinin (DHA). The 50% effective concentration (EC 50 72h )...
