Additional PfCRT mutations driven by selective pressure for improved fitness can result in the loss of piperaquine resistance and altered Plasmodium falciparum physiology

ABSTRACTMalaria elimination efforts in Southeast Asia have been hindered by multidrug-resistant Plasmodium falciparum. High-grade resistance to piperaquine (PPQ, used in combination with dihydroartemisinin) is associated with PfCRT mutations that arose in strains expressing the PfCRT Dd2 isoform, wh...
