Some features of primary and recrudescent amodiaquine-resistant Plasmodium falciparum infections in Nigerian children

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2008
Characteristics of primary and recrudescent Plasmodium falciparum infections were evaluated in 25 children who did not recover after amodiaquine (AQ) treatment. Recrudescence was detected by a thick blood smear and confirmed by polymerase chain reaction.

Artemisinin‐Based Combination Therapies in East Africa: A Systematic Review of Quality, Clinical Efficacy, and Regulatory Progress Towards Sustainable Malaria Control

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 3, Page 254-273, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Malaria is a major public health issue in East Africa, leading to widespread illness and fatalities, especially among vulnerable populations such as children under 5 years of age and pregnant women. Artemisinin‐based combination therapies (ACTs) are the primary treatment modality; however, their efficacy is undermined by the ...

In vitro effects of amodiaquine on paired Schistosoma mansoni adult worms at concentrations of less than 5 µg/mL

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2013
In this study, the in vitro effects of amodiaquine (AQ) monotherapy on the egg output of paired adult Schistosoma mansoni worms and their survival during in vitro culture were assessed.

Exploration of Antiplasmodium Chemical Space Identifies New Inhibitors of β‐Hematin Formation from Areas of Enrichment

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 3, 12 February 2026.
An enrichment map, developed using principal components analysis (PCA), shows the relative abundance of inhibitors of synthetic hemozoin (β‐hematin) formation in antiplasmodium chemical space. This 2‐dimensional landscape can be mined to unearth new chemotypes for antimalarial drug development.

Small Molecule Kinase Inhibitors with In Vitro β‐Hematin Formation and Plasmodium falciparum Protein Kinase G Inhibitory Activity Identified Using Machine Learning

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 3, 12 February 2026.
A random forest machine learning model was used in combination with molecular docking to predict activity of small molecule kinase inhibitors against two crucial antimalarial targets, namely hemozoin crystallization and Plasmodium falciparum protein kinase G. Derazantinib shows most promise as a dual inhibitor.

A Nurr1 ligand C-DIM12 attenuates brain inflammation and improves functional recovery after intracerebral hemorrhage in mice

Scientific Reports, 2022
We have previously reported that amodiaquine, a compound that binds to the ligand-binding domain of a nuclear receptor Nurr1, attenuates inflammatory responses and neurological deficits after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in mice. 1,1-Bis(3′-indolyl)-1-(

Amodiaquine resistance in Plasmodium berghei is associated with PbCRT His95Pro mutation, loss of chloroquine, artemisinin and primaquine sensitivity, and high transcript levels of key transporters [version 2; referees: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

Wellcome Open Research, 2018
Background: The human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum has evolved drug evasion mechanisms to all available antimalarials. The combination of amodiaquine-artesunate is among the drug of choice for treatment of uncomplicated malaria.

Prevalence of Plasmodium Species Using Rapid Diagnostic Tests in Cameroon: First‐Year Data From Routine Malaria Surveillance

BioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Malaria remains a major public health concern in Cameroon. Although Plasmodium falciparum is the predominant parasite, the prevalence of other Plasmodium species remains poorly documented due to the absence of a formal surveillance system.

Protecting the malaria drug arsenal: halting the rise and spread of amodiaquine resistance by monitoring the PfCRT SVMNT type

Malaria Journal, 2010
The loss of chloroquine due to selection and spread of drug resistant Plasmodium falciparum parasites has greatly impacted malaria control, especially in highly endemic areas of Africa.
