New diarylsulfonamide inhibitors of Leishmania infantum amastigotes

open access: yesInternational Journal for Parasitology: Drugs and Drug Resistance, 2021
New drugs against visceral leishmaniasis with mechanisms of action differing from existing treatments and with adequate cost, stability, and properties are urgently needed. No antitubulin drug is currently in the clinic against Leishmania infantum, the causative agent of visceral leishmaniasis in the Mediterranean area. We have designed and synthesized

Hybrids of Cinchona Alkaloids and Bile Acids as Antiparasitic Agents Against Trypanosoma cruzi

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
The current chemotherapy of Chagas disease needs to be urgently improved. With this aim, a series of 16 hybrids of Cinchona alkaloids and bile acids were prepared by functionalization at position C-2 of the quinoline nucleus by a radical attack of a ...

Mammalian cell invasion and intracellular trafficking by Trypanosoma cruzi infective forms

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2005
Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas’ disease, occurs as different strains or isolates that may be grouped in two major phylogenetic lineages: T. cruzi I, associated with the sylvatic cycle and T. cruzi II, linked to the human disease.

A century of research: what have we learned about the interaction of Trypanosoma cruzi with host cells?

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2009
Since the discovery of Trypanosoma cruzi and the brilliant description of the then-referred to "new tripanosomiasis" by Carlos Chagas 100 years ago, a great deal of scientific effort and curiosity has been devoted to understanding how this parasite ...

Effect of drugs on Trypanosoma cruzi and on its interaction with heart muscle cell in vitro Efeito de drogas sobre o Trypanosoma cruzi e sua interação com células musculares cardíacas in vitro

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1987
Megazol, nifurtimox, benznidazol and allopurinol were investigated, by light and electron µscopy, for their action on T. cruzi. Both the direct effect upon amastigote and trypomastigote forms and the effect upon the interaction of heart muscle cells (HMC)

Leishmania infantum Axenic Amastigotes Induce Human Neutrophil Extracellular Traps and Resist NET-Mediated Killing

open access: yesTropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2023
Neutrophils are multifaceted cells that, upon activation, release meshes of chromatin associated with different proteins, known as neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). Leishmania amazonensis promastigotes and amastigotes induce NET release, and we have

In Vitro and in Vivo Assays of 3,5-Disubstituted-Tetrahydro-2H-1,3,5-Thiadiazin-2-Thione Derivatives against Trypanosoma cruzi

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2002
Cytotoxicity assays of 24 new 3,5-disubstituted-tetrahydro-2H-1,3,5-thiadiazin-2-thione derivatives were performed. The 17 compounds with higher anti-epimastigote activity and lower cytotoxicity were, thereafter, screened against amastigote of ...
