Introduction. In Madagascar, malaria control relies on the countrywide use of long lasting insecticide treated bed nets (LLINs) and on indoor residual spraying (IRS) in the central highland area as well as a small area on the eastern coast. We tested insecticide resistance mechanisms of Anopheles funestus from Tsararano, a malaria endemic village in the coastal health district of Marovoay. Methods. Insecticide susceptibility bioassays were done in July 2017 on frst-generation Anopheles funestus (F1) to assess (i) the susceptibility to permethrin (0.05%), deltamethrin (0.05%), DDT (4%), malathion (5%), fenitrothion (1%), and bendiocarb (0.1%); (ii) the efect of preexposure to the piperonyl butoxide (PBO) synergist; and (iii) the enzymatic activities of cytochrome P450, esterases, and glutathione S-transferases (GST). Results. Our results demonstrated that An. funestus was phenotypically resistant to pyrethroids and bendiocarb, with a mortality rate (MR) of 33.6% (95%CI: 24.5-43.7%) and 86% (95%CI: 77.6-92.1%), respectively. In contrast, An. funestus were 100% susceptible to DDT and organophosphates (malathion and fenitrothion). Preexposure of An. funestus to PBO synergist signifcantly restored the susceptibility to bendiocarb (MR=100%) and increased the MR in the pyrethroid 2 group, from 96% (95%CI: 90.0-98.9%) to 100% for deltamethrin and permethrin, respectively (� =43,df =3,P< 0.0001). Enzymatic activities of cytochrome P450 and �-esterases were signifcantly elevated among An. funestus compared with the IPM reference strain (Mann-Whitney U=30,P<0.0001; U = 145.5, P <0.0001, respectively). No signifcant diferences of �-esterases activities compared to the IPM reference strain were observed (Mann-Whitney U = 392.5, P = 0.08). Conclusion. In Tsararano, despite the absence of an IRS programme, there is evidence of high levels of insecticide resistance to pyrethroids and bendiocarb in An. funestus. Biochemical data indicated that a metabolic resistance mechanism through the cytochrome P450 genes is operating in the An. funestus population. 1.

Tus, malaria still hampers 2 BioMed Research International the prosperity and economic development of the country as the economic cost of malaria is estimated at more than 50 million USD per year [4]. Consequently, in Madagascar, these malaria control measures must be increased to achieve the global malaria action plan (GMAP) [5]. Madagascar deployed traditional vector control methods as early as 1949 [6, 7]. Te global malaria eradication campaign in the 1950s and 1960, which was based on the large-scale use of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), was successful in Madagascar and there was a signifcant drop in national malaria transmission from 1959 until the early 1970s [8]. Unfortunately, these eforts were not sustained Figure 1: Map of Marovoay district (Madagascar) showing study and recurring malaria outbreaks were observed in the central Tsararano area. highlands in the 1980s [9, 10]. Te upsurge of the disease was due to several factors such as the abandonment of indoor residual spraying (IRS), insufcient funding for malaria control, the erosion of the public health system, and the poor knowledge of the malaria vector biology (including that of Anopheles funestus, the main vector involved in the malaria epidemics in the central highlands) as well as the Anopheles resistance to insecticides [11–13]. Te diversity of Madagascar’s ecosystems with 5 epi- demiological zones, several vectors, 2 major parasites (P. falciparum and P. v iv a x ), and the changes they experience as a result of human activities (e.g. the use of insecticides for agriculture and vector control), among others, renders the malaria vector system extremely complex and constantly evolving. Today, it is widely accepted that vector control Figure 2: Photograph showing the vast rice felds at Tsararano Marovoay constituting potential larval breeding site for Anopheles strategies will only be efective in the long term if there is a funestus. thorough knowledge of vector biology and, particularly, the status of insecticide resistance [14, 15]. Te failure to take into account insecticide susceptibility of the potential vectors involved in malaria transmission has contributed to failures to insecticides, particularly in countries where the policy in malaria control throughout Africa [5]. of universal bed net coverage is applied. Recent studies Te most efective way to prevent malaria transmission demonstrated the occurrence of the resistance to pyrethroids is to avoid human-vector contact, hence the importance of and DDT in An. arabiensis population in several districts vector control [5]. However, in many countries where vector of Madagascar [23]. However, little information is available control strategies, including IRS and long lasting insecticide on the status and insecticide resistance mechanisms in An. treated bed nets (LLINs), have been implemented on a funestus, one of the main malaria vectors [24].
