Gametocytes from K13 propeller mutant plasmodium falciparum clinical isolates demonstrate reduced susceptibility to dihydroartemisinin in the male gamete exflagellation inhibition assay
Mutations in the kelch propeller domain (K13 propeller) of Plasmodium falciparum parasites from Southeast Asia are associated with reduced susceptibility to artemisinin. We exposed in vitro-cultured stage V gametocytes from Cambodian K13 propeller mutant parasites to dihydroartemisinin and evaluated...
