The N86Y mutation in pfmdr1 is reported to play an additional role for the chloroquine resistance in Plasmodium falciparum isolates. However, not much has been done to clarify whether this mutation augments the level of chloroquine resistance in the isolates harboring pfcrt K76T mutation. We compared the in vitro chloroquine efficacy between pfcrt K76T mutant parasites with or without N86Y mutation from Papua New Guinea. A total of 57 isolates (4% sensitive, 14% borderline, and 82% resistant) were successfully tested in vitro for chloroquine sensitivity. We found a slightly higher effective concentration of chloroquine needed to inhibit P. falciparum by 50% (mean EC50=107 nM) in isolates with the pfcrt K76T+pfmdr1 N86Y than that in isolates with the pfcrt K76T+pfmdr1 N86 (EC50=88 nM), but this difference was not statistically significant. A significant non-random association was observed between the pfcrt K76T and pfmdr1 N86Y alleles. Our results suggest that the pfmdr1 N86Y mutation plays a compensatory role to chloroquine-resistant isolates under a chloroquine pressure while it may also augment the level of chloroquine resistance in the K76T parasites to a small extent.
