Medical use of cannabis in Switzerland: analysis of approved exceptional licences (Publications)
AIMS OF THE STUDY: In recent years, the Swiss Federal Office of Public Health (FOPH) granted exceptional licenses for the medical use of cannabinoids, typically for 6 months with possible extensions.
Transcriptional profiling defines dynamics of parasite tissue sequestration during malaria infection (Publications)
BACKGROUND: During intra-erythrocytic development, late asexually replicating Plasmodium falciparum parasites sequester from peripheral circulation. This facilitates chronic infection and is linked to
Synthesis and potent antiprotozoal activity of mono/di amidino 2-anilinobenz-imidazoles versus <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> and <em>Trypanosoma... (Publications)
A series of mono and dicationic new 2-anilinobenzimidazole carboxamidines were prepared in a four step process starting from 4-amino-3-nitrobenzonitrile and corresponding o-phenylenediamines. Their an
Repellents and new "spaces of concern" in global health (Publications)
Today, malaria prevention hinges upon two domestic interventions: insecticide-treated bed nets and indoor residual spraying. As mosquitoes grow resistant to these tools, however, novel approaches to v
Structure-activity relationship studies on thiaplidiaquinones A and B as novel inhibitors of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> and farnesyltransferase (Publications)
Marine meroterpenoids, thiaplidiaquinones A and B and their respective non-natural dioxothiazine regioisomers have been shown to inhibit mammalian and protozoal farnesyltransferase (FTase) with the re
