Associations between Varied Susceptibilities to PfATP4 Inhibitors and Genotypes in Ugandan Plasmodium falciparum Isolates

Abstract: Among novel compounds under recent investigation as potential new antimalarial drugs are three independently developed inhibitors of the Plasmodium falciparum P-type ATPase (PfATP4): KAE609 (cipargamin), PA92, and SJ733. We assessed ex vivo susceptibilities to these compounds of 374 fresh P. falciparum isolates collected in Tororo and Busia districts, Uganda from 2016-2019. Median IC 50 s were 65 nM for SJ733, 9.1 n… Show more

“…Cipargamin was discovered by scientists within the global NGBS consortium (Novartis Institute for Tropical Disease, Genomics Institute of the Novartis Research Foundation, Biomedical Primate Research Centre, and Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute). Resistance is mediated by mutations in the gene encoding PfATP4 (a protein on the parasite membrane that modulates sodium-proton exchange), suggesting that this is the target of the small molecule 144 147 , 62 , 63 . Treatment with cipargamin results in asexual blood-stage parasite rigidification and rapid clearance in vivo.…”

“…Thus, it is important to determine the drug susceptibilities and genotypic profiles of malaria parasites freshly isolated in malaria-endemic regions where malaria is endemic ( 10 , 11 ). We previously evaluated the ex vivo activities of inhibitors of P. falciparum Na + ATPase 4 (PfATP4) ( 12 ), dihydrofolate reductase (PfDHFR) ( 13 ), and proteasome components ( 14 ) against cultured Ugandan P. falciparum isolates and determined the genetic diversity of the targets of these inhibitors. Ugandan isolates were universally highly sensitive to these lead inhibitors, but modest changes in compound susceptibility were associated with genetic polymorphisms in genes encoding PfATP4, PfDHFR, and the proteasome β2 subunit ( 12 14 ).…”
