Induction and Isolation of Artemisinine-Resistant Mutants of Plasmodium falciparum

Joseph Inselburg
Department of Microbiology, Dartmouth Medical School, Hanover, New Hampshire 03756

Five artemisinine-resistant mutants of Plasmodium falciparum have been isolated from a cloned parent following mutagenic treatment with N-methyl-N'-nitronitrosoguanidine. This observation may influence the strategy of the use of artemisinine or its derivatives. Mutant isolation should prove useful in the study of drug resistance to other antimalarials.
