In vitro Anti-Trypanosomal Activities of Indanone-Based Chalcones [PDF]
Human African trypanosomiasis is a neglected infectious disease that affects mostly people living in the rural areas of Africa. Current treatment options are limited to just four drugs that have been in use of four to nine decades. The life-threatening toxic side-effects associated with the use of these drugs are disconcerting.

Anti-trypanosomal activity of doubly modified salinomycin derivatives [PDF]
As a group of biologically active compounds, polyether antibiotics (ionophores) show a broad spectrum of interesting pharmacological properties, ranging from anti-bacterial to anti-cancer activities. There is increasing evidence that ionophores, including salinomycin (SAL), and their semi-synthetic analogues are promising candidates for the development

ANTI‐TRYPANOSOMAL ACTIVITY OF CERTAIN PHENYLDIAZOAMINO‐ AND PHENYLAZOAMINO‐PHENANTHRIDINIUM COMPOUNDS [PDF]
Red phenyldiazoaminophenanthridinium and purple phenylazoaminophenanthridinium compounds, most of which were obtained as isomeric pairs, were tested in mice for curative and prophylactic action against Trypanosoma congolense. Several of the individual compounds showed a high degree of activity, the red isomer of each pair usually being more active ...
