Prevalence of polymorphisms in marker genes associated with antimalarial drug resistance in Plasmodium falciparum following 10 years of artemisinin-based combination therapy implementation in urban Kolkata
Copyright: © 2024 Tropical Parasitology..
Context: Resistance to antimalarial drugs is one of the major challenges for malaria elimination. In India, artemisinin combination therapy (artesunate-sulfadoxin pyrimethamine) was introduced in place of chloroquine (CQ) for the treatment of uncomplicated falciparum malaria in 2010. Periodical monitoring of polymorphisms in antimalarial drug resistance marker genes will be useful for assessing drug pressure, mapping and monitoring of drug resistance status; and will be helpful for searching alternative treatments.
Objectives: This study was conducted to study the polymorphisms in antimalarial drug resistance marker genes among clinical Plasmodium falciparum isolates collected from Kolkata after 10 years of artemisinin-based combination therapie (ACT) implementation.
Materials and Methods: Blood samples were collected from P. falciparum mono-infected patients and polymorphisms in P. falciparum CQ resistance transporter (pfcrt), P. falciparum multidrug resistance (pfmdr-1), P. falciparum dihydrofolate reductase (pfdhfr), P. falciparum dihydropteroate synthetase (pfdhps), pfATPase6 and pfK-13 propeller genes were analysed by polymerase chain reaction and DNA sequencing.
Results: In pfcrt gene, C72S, and K76T mutation was recorded in 100% isolates and no mutations was detected in any of the targeted codons of pfmdr-1 gene. A double mutant pfcrt haplotype SVMNT and wildtype haplotype NYD in pfmdr-1 were prevalent in 100% of study isolates. Triple mutant pfdhfr-pfdhps haplotype ANRNI-SGKAA was recorded. No polymorphism in pfK13 gene was documented in any of the isolates.
Conclusions: Observed wild codon N86 along with Y184 and D1246 of pfmdr-1 gene might be an indication of the reappearance of CQ sensitivity. The absence of quadruple and quintuple haplotypes in pfdhfr-pfdhps gene along with the wild haplotype of pfK13 is evidence of ACT effectivity. Hence, similar studies with large sample size are highly suggested for monitoring the drug resistance status of P. falciparum.
