The Trypanosoma cruzi enzyme TcGPXI is a glycosomal peroxidase and can be linked to trypanothione reduction by glutathione or tryparedoxin. [PDF]
Trypanosoma cruzi glutathione-dependent peroxidase I (TcGPXI) can reduce fatty acid, phospholipid, and short chain organic hydroperoxides utilizing a novel redox cycle in which enzyme activity is linked to the reduction of trypanothione, a parasite ...

Analysis and optimal control of a malaria mathematical model under resistance and population movement [PDF]
In this work, two mathematical models for malaria under resistance are presented. More precisely, the first model shows the interaction between humans and mosquitoes inside a patch under infection of malaria when the human population is resistant to antimalarial drug and mosquitoes population is resistant to insecticides.

Lead clinical and pre-clinical antimalarial drugs can significantly reduce sporozoite transmission to vertebrate populations [PDF]
To achieve malarial elimination we must employ interventions that reduce the exposure of human populations to infectious mosquitoes. To this end, numerous anti-malarial drugs are under assessment in a variety of transmission-blocking assays which fail to

The emergence of resistance to antimalarials has prompted the steady switch to novel therapies for decades. Withdrawal of antimalarials, such as chloroquine in sub-Saharan Africa in the late 1990s, led to rapid declines in the prevalence of resistance ...

Adherence to a Six-Dose Regimen of Artemether-Lumefantrine for Treatment of Uncomplicated Plasmodium Falciparum Malaria in Uganda. [PDF]
Measuring baseline levels of adherence and identifying risk factors for non-adherence are important steps before the introduction of new antimalarials. In Mbarara in southwestern Uganda, we assessed adherence to artemether-lumefantrine (Coartem) in its ...

The COVID-19 Treatment Landscape: A South African Perspective on a Race Against Time
The pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 has infected more than 94 million people worldwide (as of 17 January 2020). Severe disease is believed to be secondary to the cytokine release syndrome (CRS or “cytokine storm”) which causes local tissue damage as well ...

Costing Artemisinin-based Combination Therapy for Malaria in Tanzania [PDF]
Malaria continues to be a major contributor to the burden of disease in Tanzania, with a prevalence of 33.39 percent nationally. As antimalarial resistance to sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine in Tanzania continues to grow, the government is in the process of ...
