Mechanism Description Functional studies on the newly emerging PfCRT F145I and C350R mutations, associated with decreased PPQ susceptibility in Asia and South America respectively reveal their ability to mediate PPQ transport in 7G8 variant proteins and to confer resistance in gene-edited parasites. The apparent dichotomy observed between CQ and PPQ for the F145I and C350R mutants, which evolved on CQ-R isoforms and caused CQ resensitization along with a gain of PPQ resistance, highlights the value of extending this research to rapidly emerging PfCRT mutations.

All CQR haplotypes carry the key k76T mutation that removes a positive charge in TM 1, suggesting a charge-dependent transport mechanism as CQ is di-protonated in the acidic DV10,13.

Mechanism Description Resistance to chloroquine (CQ) in P. falciparum parasites is predominantly linked to a single mutation in the P. falciparum transporter gene (Pfcrt) on chromosome 7, which encodes a protein localized on the parasite digestive vacuole (DV) membrane. The replacement of lysine (k) at position 76 to a threonine (T), i.e. the k76T mutation, has been established as the most important prognostic marker of treatment failure. Another point mutation N86Y in P. falciparum multidrug resistance gene 1 (Pfmdr1), on chromosome 5, that encodes a P-glycoprotein homologue and is located on the parasite DV membrane has also been implicated in CQ resistance.

Mechanism Description The k76T mutation in PfCRT generates structural changes that are sufficient to allow GSH transport, but not CQ transport. mutant pfcrt allows enhanced transport of GSH into the parasite's DV. The elevated levels of GSH in the DV reduce the level of free heme available for CQ binding, which mediates the lower susceptibility to CQ in the PfCRT mutant parasites.

Mechanism Description Rrecombinant PfCRT transports amino acids, small peptides, and chloroquine, suggests that PfCRT functions to transport products of hemoglobin digestion out of the digestive vacuole. TgCRT is also able to transport amino acids and small peptides out of the VAC. TgCRT-deficient tachyzoites also grow more slowly in vitro and are compromised in their ability to cause mortality in mice during acute infection, suggesting that an inability to transport digested material out of the VAC and into the parasite cytosol has a moderate effect on T. gondii tachyzoites.

These lines produce either lower (pbggcs-ko) or higher (pbggcs-oe) levels of GSH than wild type parasites. Recrudescence assays after the parasites have been exposed to a sub-lethal dose of ART showed that parasites with low levels of GSH are more sensitive to ART tre.

Drug Resistance
In vitro drug assay
Mechanism Description Studies of genetic polymorphisms in two candidate genes of drug resistance (pvmdr1 and pvcrt-o) of the P. vivax isolates from this area and found association between the M908L substitution in pvmdr1 with reduced sensitivities to and chloroquine, mefloquine, pyronaridine, piperaquine, quinine, artesunate and dihydroartem.
Key Molecule: Chloroquine resistance transporter (CRT) [51]
Resistant Disease Malaria [ICD-11: 1F45.0]
Molecule Alteration Missense mutation
p.F145I
Resistant Drug Dihydroartemisinin
Experimental Note Discovered Using In-vivo Testing Model
In Vitro Model Plasmodium falciparum strains 5833
Mechanism Description The PfCRT 145I mutation was only observed in parasites with amplified plasmepsin II/III copy number, suggesting that perhaps in nature this mutation has only occurred or only attains high frequency on a background of amplified plasmepsin II/III. Moreover, the mean piperaquine IC90 was greater in parasites with both amplified plasmepsin II/III and PfCRT 145I compared with parasites with just amplified plasmepsin II/III, suggesting that 145I results in an additional resistance effect beyond that caused by amplified plasmepsin.

Sensitive Drug Dihydroartemisinin
Experimental Note Discovered Using In-vivo Testing Model
In Vitro Model Plasmodium falciparum strains 5833
Experiment for

Nested PCR
Mechanism Description Both in vitro and molecular surveillance studies have associated CQ resistance mainly with the pfcrt 76T allele, but also with pfmdr1 86Y and 184F alleles. Pfcrt 76T and pfmdr1 86Y mutant alleles have also been reported to decrease P. falciparum susceptibility to amodiaquine but increase parasite sensitivity to dihydroartemisinin, lumefantrine and mefl.

Mechanism Description The most striking phenotype observed with the replacement of N86Y with the wild-type N86 residue was a significant increase in the IC50 and IC90 values for LMF, MFQ and DHA. In the case of DHA, the change to N86 resulted in -1.5-fold increased IC50 values in both backgrounds.
