Generation and characterisation of <i>P. falciparum</i> parasites with a G358S mutation in the PfATP4 Na <sup>+</sup> pump and clinically relevant levels of resistance to some PfATP4 inhibitors
2022-01-12
Abstract excerpt
Small-molecule inhibitors of PfATP4, a Plasmodium falciparum protein that is believed to pump Na + out of the parasite while importing H + , are on track to become much-needed new antimalarial drugs. The spiroindolone cipargamin is poised to become the first PfATP4 inhibitor to reach the field, having performed strongly in Phase 1 and 2 clinical trials. Previous attempts to generate cipargamin-resistant parasit...
