The spread of antimalarial drug resistance: A mathematical model with practical implications for ACT drug policies [PDF]
Most malaria-endemic countries are implementing a change in antimalarial drug policy to artemisinin combination therapy (ACT). The impact of different drug choices and implementation strategies is uncertain.

Analysis of slow (theta) oscillations as a potential temporal reference frame for information coding in sensory cortices [PDF]
While sensory neurons carry behaviorally relevant information in responses that often extend over hundreds of milliseconds, the key units of neural information likely consist of much shorter and temporally precise spike patterns.

Red and Blue Light Promote the Accumulation of Artemisinin in Artemisia annua L.
Artemisinin, which has been isolated from Artemisia annua L., is the most effective antimalarial drug and has saved millions of lives. In addition, artemisinin and its derivatives have anti-tumor, anti-parasitic, anti-fibrosis, and anti-arrhythmic ...

ABSTRACT Cancer is a major global health concern. Therefore, new treatment options are needed. The phytochemicals have different chemical structures. It also exhibits several other biological activities. Therefore, these compounds are promising anticancer agents. This review aims to identify and assess new candidates for anticancer therapy.

Synthetic Biology‐Based Engineering Living Therapeutics for Antimicrobial Application
This perspective highlights synthetic biology‐driven antibacterial strategies, focusing on three innovative approaches: engineered bacteriophages for precision bacterial targeting, reprogrammed microbes that detect quorum‐sensing signals or metabolites to release antimicrobials, and engineering mammalian cells that recognize pathogen‐associated ...

Artemisinin kills malaria parasites by damaging proteins and inhibiting the proteasome
Artemisinin and its derivatives (collectively referred to as ARTs) rapidly reduce the parasite burden in Plasmodium falciparum infections, and antimalarial control is highly dependent on ART combination therapies (ACTs).

Saleability of Anti-malarials in Private Drug Shops in Muheza, Tanzania: A Baseline study in an era of assumed Artemisinin Ccombination Therapy (ACT). [PDF]
Artemether-lumefantrine (ALu) replaced sulphadoxine-pymimethamine (SP) as the official first-line anti-malarial in Tanzania in November 2006. So far, artemisinin combination therapy (ACT) is contra-indicated during pregnancy by the national malaria ...
