Neurotoxic Mode of Action of Artemisinin [PDF]
ABSTRACT We recently described a screening system designed to detect neurotoxicity of artemisinin derivatives based on primary neuronal brain stem cell cultures (G. Schmuck and R. K. Haynes, Neurotoxicity Res. 2:37-49, 2000). Here, we probe possible mechanisms of this brain stem-specific neurodegeneration, in which artemisinin-sensitive ...

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 ...

Pharmacokinetic modelling of the anti-malarial drug artesunate and its active metabolite dihydroartemisinin [PDF]
A four compartment mechanistic mathematical model is developed for the pharmacokinetics of the commonly used anti-malarial drug artesunate and its principle metabolite dihydroartemisinin following oral administration of artesunate.

Biosynthesis of the Red Algal Diterpene Peyssonnosol in Bacteria
Two terpene synthases derived from Anaerolineae bacteria catalyse the biosynthesis of peyssonnosene‐type diterpenes from red algae. Site‐directed mutagenesis enabled a partial functional switch, resulting in the formation of additional byproducts. The intricate cyclisation mechanisms were investigated through isotopic labelling experiments and density ...

Automatic differential analysis of NMR experiments in complex samples
Liquid state NMR is a powerful tool for the analysis of complex mixtures of unknown molecules. This capacity has been used in many analytical approaches: metabolomics, identification of active compounds in natural extracts, characterization of species ...

Total synthesis of (+) artemisinin
(+) Artemisinin is a sesquiterpene endoperoxide lactone with an unprecedented structure is a natural medicine for the treatment of malaria in particular drug against drug resistant malaria and cerebral malaria. The total synthesis of this novel sesquiterpene is described using an intermolecular radical reaction on important intermediate iodolactone ...
