Rethinking Triple Artemisinin-based Therapies against Plasmodium falciparum

Rethinking Triple Artemisinin-based Therapies against Plasmodium falciparum A study published in Nature Communications shows that clinical P. falciparum isolates from Cambodia with resistance to the antimalarial drug mefloquine also tolerate the mefloquine-piperaquine combination, one of the backbone regimens proposed in triple artemisinin-based therapies (TACTs). The team found that pre-existing mefloquine resistance alone was enough to compromise the efficacy of this partner-drug combo … Read more

Portable Genotyping for Safer Treatment Decisions: Nanopore Sequencing of G6PD Variants

Portable Genotyping for Safer Treatment Decisions: Nanopore Sequencing of G6PD Variants In Scientific Reports, researchers describe a new genomic assay based on Nanopore long-amplicon sequencing that rapidly and accurately detects single nucleotide variants in the G6PD gene, which underlies glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency — a condition that can trigger hemolysis when patients receive certain antimalarials like primaquine. By amplifying 2 … Read more

Non-coding Genetic Changes Linked to Drug Tolerance in Plasmodium vivax

Non-coding Genetic Changes Linked to Drug Tolerance in Plasmodium vivax Another Nature Communications paper reports a common DNA deletion immediately downstream of the mdr1 gene in P. vivax parasites from Cambodian patients. Unlike classic resistance mutations that alter protein sequences, this 837-base-pair deletion lies in a non-coding region and does not change the mdr1 protein itself, but it does alter the 3’ untranslated region (UTR) of the gene’s … Read more

 Institut Pasteur du Cambodge (IPC) published a study on the first Mpox outbreak in Cambodia, which occurred in Phnom Penh between 2023 and 2024.

Institut Pasteur du Cambodge (IPC) published a study on the first Mpox outbreak in Cambodia, which occurred in Phnom Penh between 2023 and 2024. By combining epidemiological investigations (who was infected and how) with whole-genome sequencing of the virus, researchers showed that all confirmed cases belonged to the same viral group (Clade IIb, lineage C.1). This means the outbreak … Read more
