the low micromolar to submicromolar range against Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense as well as the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum
Evidence that <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> chromosome end clusters are cross-linked by protein and are the sites of both virulence gene silencing... (Publications)
The malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum undergoes antigenic variation through allelic exclusion and variant expression of surface proteins encoded by the var gene family. Regulation of var genes is
Ultrasonography of gallbladder abnormalities due to schistosomiasis (Publications)
After malaria, schistosomiasis remains the most important tropical parasitic disease in large parts of the world. Schistosomiasis has recently re-emerged in Southern Europe. Intestinal schistosomiasis
Inhibitors of adenosine consuming parasites through polymer-assisted solution phase synthesis of lipophilic 5'-amido-5'-deoxyadenosine... (Publications)
structurally diverse starting points for the development of chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of malaria are urgently needed. Thus, a series of 20 adenosine derivatives with a large lipophilic substituent
Pyrethroid and etofenprox resistance in <em>Anopheles gambiae </em>and <em>Anopheles coluzzii </em>from vegetable farms in Yaounde, Cameroon:... (Publications)
Previous studies have indicated widespread insecticide resistance in malaria vector populations from Cameroon. However, the intensity of this resistance and underlying mechanisms are poorly known. Therefore
A <em>Plasmodium </em>membrane receptor platform integrates cues for egress and invasion in blood forms and activation of transmission stages (Publications)
Critical events in the life cycle of malaria-causing parasites depend on cyclic guanosine monophosphate homeostasis by guanylyl cyclases (GCs) and phosphodiesterases, including merozoite egress or invasion
TKK130 is a 3-hydroxy-propanamidine (HPA) with potent antimalarial <em>in vivo</em> activity and a high barrier to resistance (Publications)
Malaria continues to pose a significant burden on populations in endemic areas and requires innovative treatment options. Here, we report the synthesis and preclinical evaluation of the novel 3-hydrox
Assessment of different genotyping markers and algorithms for distinguishing <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> recrudescence from reinfection in Uganda (Publications)
Antimalarial therapeutic efficacy studies are vital for monitoring drug efficacy in malaria-endemic regions. The WHO recommends genotyping polymorphic markers including msp-1, msp-2, and glurp for dis
Inhibition of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> Hsp90 contributes to the antimalarial activities of aminoalcohol-carbazoles (Publications)
Malaria caused by the protozoan parasite Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) remains a major public health problem throughout the developing world. One molecular target that should receive more attention is the
