  • Use of Proscribed Chloroquine Is Associated with an Increased Risk Of
    Asare et al. Malaria Journal 2014, 13:246 http://www.malariajournal.com/content/13/1/246 RESEARCH Open Access Use of proscribed chloroquine is associated with an increased risk of pfcrt T76 mutation in some parts of Ghana Kwame K Asare1, Johnson N Boampong1*, Richmond Afoakwah1, Elvis O Ameyaw1, Rakesh Sehgal2 and Neils B Quashie3 Abstract Background: After years of disuse of chloroquine (CQ) as first-line anti-malarial drug in Ghana, reports from molecular studies conducted in parts of the country indicate varying prevalence of T76 mutation in the pfcrt gene. This situation has several health implications, one being that mutations that confer resistance to CQ have been reported to show substantial cross-resistance to other anti-malarial drugs. It is important to identify some of the factors contributing to the continuous presence of CQ resistance markers in the country. This study determined the prevalence of T76 mutation in pfcrt gene of Plasmodium falciparum isolates collected from selected areas of the Central region of Ghana and correlated with the level of CQ use in these areas. Methods: Plasmodium falciparum DNA was extracted from collected blood-blot filter paper samples in the study sites. The prevalence of T76 point mutation in pfcrt gene was assessed using nested PCR followed by RFLP. CQ from pharmacy and chemical shops was obtained using mystery buying method. The extent of CQ use by the participants was determined by measuring the level of the drug in their urine samples using the Saker-Solomon method. Results: Of the 214 P. falciparum isolates analysed, 71.9% were found to have T76 mutation of pfcrt gene.
