TL;DR: Strong correlations between the presence of a mutant allele, in vitro parasite survival rates and in vivo parasite clearance rates indicate that K13-propeller mutations are important determinants of artemisinin resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI
K13-propeller mutations confer artemisinin resistance in Plasmodium falciparum clinical isolates

TL;DR: The data provide a conclusive rationale for worldwide K13-propeller sequencing to identify and eliminate artemisinin-resistant parasites and imperils efforts to reduce the global malaria burden.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel phenotypic assays for the detection of artemisinin- resistant Plasmodium falciparum malaria in Cambodia: in-vitro and ex-vivo drug-response studies

TL;DR: The in-vitro RSA of 0-3 h ring-stage parasites provides a platform for the molecular characterisation of artemisinin resistance and the ex-vivo RSA can be easily implemented where surveillance for artemis inin resistance is needed.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the K13-propeller sequence polymorphism in 14,037 samples collected in 59 countries in which malaria is endemic and identified 108 nonsynonymous K13 mutations, which showed marked geographic disparity in their frequency and distribution.

TL;DR: While there was some evidence of spreading resistance, there was no evidence of resistance moving westward from Cambodia into Myanmar, and K13 appears to be a major determinant of artemisinin resistance throughout Southeast Asia.
