mammalian (L6) cells. Three representative compounds were selected for evaluation in a rodent model of malaria infection, and the best compound showed improved ability to decrease parasitaemia and a slight increase
Trypanocidal activity of diarylheptanoids from <em>Schrankia leptocarpa</em> DC (Publications)
Schrankia leptocara is a medicinal species use traditionally in Benin to treat malaria. A previous study showed interesting antimalarial activity against two strains of Plasmodium falciparum. Phytochemical

Design, synthesis, and evaluation of 5'-diphenyl nucleoside analogues as inhibitors of the <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> dUTPase (Publications)
Deoxyuridine 5'-triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (dUTPase) is a potential drug target for malaria. We previously reported some 5'-tritylated deoxyuridine analogues (both cyclic and acyclic) as selective
