Antimalarial benzoheterocyclic 4-aminoquinolines: structure-activity relationship, in vivo evaluation, mechanistic and bioactivation studies (Publications)
for antiplasmodial activity against K1 (multidrug resistant) and NF54 (sensitive) strains of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. Structure-activity relationship studies led to the identification
Analogues of thiolactomycin as potential antimalarial agents (Publications)
fatty acid synthase, were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to inhibit the growth of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. Alkylation of the C4 hydroxyl group led to the most significant increase

facility fosters innovation in vector biology and behaviour, enabling the control of diseases such as malaria and dengue fever. In our BSL-3 laboratories, we are driving breakthroughs in drug resistance, diagnostics
The antimalarial MMV688533 provides potential for single-dose cures with a high barrier to <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> parasite resistance (Publications)
mode of action. This preclinical candidate may offer the potential for a single low-dose cure for malaria.
Differential infectivity of Plasmodium for mosquitoes (Publications)
The four human malarias - Plasmodium falciparum, P. vivax, P. ovale and P. malariaecan - canonly be transmitted by mosquitoes of the genus Anopheles, although not all species (nor all strains) of these
Cytochrome P450-mediated metabolism and CYP Inhibition for the synthetic peroxide antimalarial OZ439 (Publications)
OZ439 is a potent synthetic ozonide evaluated for the treatment of uncomplicated malaria. The metabolite profile of OZ439 was characterized in vitro using human liver microsomes combined with LC/MS-MS
Strategies for conducting <em>Anopheles stephensi </em>surveys in non-endemic areas (Publications)
Anopheles stephensi, a malaria vector species previously only known from Asia, was first detected in Africa in Djibouti in 2012, has been subsequently collected in Ethiopia, Sudan, and Somalia, and may
Potent antimalarials with development potential identified by structure-guided computational optimization of a pyrrole-based dihydroorotate... (Publications)
DHODH inhibitors have great potential for use in prophylaxis, which represents an unmet need in the malaria drug discovery portfolio for endemic countries, particularly in areas of high transmission in Africa
Additional blood meals increase sporozoite infection in <em>Anopheles</em> mosquitoes but not <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> genetic diversity (Publications)
multiple blood meals on the number of P. falciparum genotypes developing from polyclonal natural human malaria infections (field-isolates) remains unexplored. Here, we experimentally infect An. gambiae with P
