Extended blood stage sensitivity profiles of <i>Plasmodium cynomolgi</i> to doxycycline and tafenoquine, as a model for <i>Plasmodium vivax</i>

Testing Plasmodium vivax antimicrobial sensitivity is limited to ex vivo schizont maturation assays, which preclude determining the IC50s of delayed action antimalarials such as doxycycline. Using Plasmodium cynomolgi as a model for P. vivax , we determined the physiologically significant delayed death effect induced by doxycycline [IC 50(96 h) , 1,401 ± 607 nM]. As expected, IC 50(96 h) to chloroquine (20.4 nM), piperaquine (12.6 µM), and tafenoquine (1,424 nM) were not affected by extended exposure.
