Artemisinin-resistant malaria parasites show enhanced transmission to mosquitoes under drug pressure

2020-02-04

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Resistance to artemisinin combination therapy (ACT) in the Plasmodium falciparum parasite is threatening to reverse recent gains in reducing global deaths from malaria. Whilst resistance manifests as delayed asexual parasite clearance in patients following ACT treatment, the phenotype can only spread geographically via the sexual cycle and subsequent transmission through the mosquito. Artemisin...
