medicine | study on the association between the clinical and parasitological response to sulfadoxinepyrimethamine and allelic combinations of dihydrofolate reductase and dihydropteroate synthase genes. Determination of dihydrofolate reductase and dihydropteroate synthase genotypes is of limited value to predict the treatment outcome in individual patients, mostly due to few treatment failures and few wild-type haplotypes. The majority of clinical isolates is characterized as quadruple, i.e. 196 isolates with mutations N51I-C59R-S108N in dihydrofolate reductase and A437G dihydropteroate synthase, or triple mutants, i.e. 97 isolates with mutations N51I-C59R-S108N in dihydrofolate reductase and wild-type dihydropteroate synthase, or S108N + N51I or C59R in dihydrofolate reductase and A437G in dihydropteroate synthase. Wild-type, single mutation, and double mutation were observed in 29, 20, and 13 parasites, respectively | Plasmodium falciparum |
