Potential Trypanocidal Activity of Glycerol Analogues

open access: yesChemistryOpen, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2024.
Trypanosoma brucei is a unicellular parasitic flagellate protozoa causing human African trypanosomiasis and animal African trypanosomiasis. Synthesised glycerol analogues were tested for their potential trypanocidal affects. They caused morphological changes, including detached flagella, cytokinesis defects and ‘big‐eye’ phenotype.

A simple, safe, eco‐friendly, and unique synthesis of hexahydro‐quinolines employing Fe3O4‐MWCNT@MnO2 as a reusable catalyst

open access: yesApplied Organometallic Chemistry, Volume 38, Issue 8, August 2024.
This work aims to explore the catalytic potential of manganese oxide (MnO2) supported on (Fe3O4‐MWCNT) nano‐composite, which is composed of iron oxide and multi‐walled carbon nanotubes. The nano‐composite was synthesized using a simple impregnation technique.

Insect–microbe interactions and their influence on organisms and ecosystems

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2024.
Insect‐symbiont interactions can have a variety of impacts on organisms and the ecosystem. These multitrophic interactions can result in differential attraction of beneficial insects or natural enemies. Additinoally, these interactions can influence plant and/or soil health as well as microbiome composition.

Potential Mechanism of the Anti-trypanosomal Activity of Organoruthenium Complexes with Bioactive Thiosemicarbazones

open access: yesBiological Trace Element Research, 2013
In the search for new metal-based drugs against diseases produced by trypanosomatid parasites, four organoruthenium(II) compounds [Ru2(p-cymene)2(L)2]X2, where L are bioactive 5-nitrofuryl-containing thiosemicarbazones and X = Cl or PF6, had been previously obtained.

Advances in QSAR analysis of anti-trypanosomal activity

open access: yes, 2017
Trypanosomiasis, also known as sleeping sickness, is a vector-borne parasitic disease transmitted by tsetse fly (Glossina genus) and caused by kinetoplastid Trypanosoma. We have investigated quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) of anti-trypanosomal activities of natural compounds polyphenols [1], as well as synthetic compounds: pyridyl ...

Intermembrane space‐localized TbTim15 is an essential subunit of the single mitochondrial inner membrane protein translocase of trypanosomes

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 121, Issue 6, Page 1112-1126, June 2024.
TbTim15 is a new subunit of the non‐canonical trypanosomal inner membrane protein translocase. Abstract All mitochondria import >95% of their proteins from the cytosol. This process is mediated by protein translocases in the mitochondrial membranes, whose subunits are generally highly conserved.
