Abstract excerpt
The genetic basis of Plasmodium falciparum resistance to quinine (QN), a drug used to treat severe malaria, has long been enigmatic. To gain further insight, we used FRG-NOD human liver-chimeric mice to conduct a P. falciparum genetic cross between QN-resistant (Cam3.II) and QN-sensitive (NF54) parasites, which also differ in their susceptibility to chloroquine (CQ). By applying different selective conditions to p...
