Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this research is to develop genetic maker(s) that is useful for the containment strategy of resistant parasites. We achieved, 1) first identification of artemisinin-resistant parasites in Africa and identification of potential resistant marker, and 2) detection of malaria parasites harboring mutant PfKelch13 allele (C580Y) and elucidation of its origin and route of their spread. These achievement would greatly contribute the practical application toward the surveillance of resistant parasites.
