Impact of CYP2D6, MAOA, and UGT2B7 genetic variants on recurrence of Plasmodium Vivax in the Brazilian Amazon

Abstract The biotransformation of primaquine is mediated by cytochrome P-450 (CYP) enzymes and monoamine oxygenase A (MAO-A). Polymorphisms in the genes that encode these enzymes can alter the clinical response of patients with Plasmodium vivax malaria, leading to therapeutic failure and recurrences...
