Molecular Cloning of an O-Methyltransferase from Adventitious Roots of Carapichea ipecacuanha [PDF]
Carapichea ipecacuanha produces various emetine-type alkaloids, known as ipecac alkaloids, which have long been used as expectorants, emetics, and amebicides. In this study, we isolated an O-methyltransferase cDNA from this medicinal plant.

The Role of Lipopeptidophosphoglycan in the Immune Response to Entamoeba histolytica
The sensing of Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns (PAMPs) by innate immune receptors, such as Toll‐like receptors (TLRs), is the first step in the inflammatory response to pathogens. Entamoeba histolytica, the etiological agent of amebiasis, has a surface molecule with the characteristics of a PAMP.

The evaluation of the amebicidal activity of Eryngium planum extracts.
Selected fractions of ethanolic extracts obtained from leaves and roots of Eryngium planum (Apiaceae) were evaluated in vitro for amebicidal activity against Acanthamoeba castellanii. This free-living ameba is the cause of Acanthamoeba keratitis, which is a painful, vision-impairing disease of the eyes, and chronic granulomatous amebic encephalitis ...
