Uhrf1‐mediated PKM2 ubiquitination and degradation repressed the nuclear translocation of PKM2, and EPT served as a molecular glue capable of targeting the Uhrf1–PKM2 complex to alleviate the IBD course, suggesting that the Uhrf1–PKM2 axis was a previously unrecognized strategy for treating IBD.

Repurposing Drugs for Malaria through a Human Dose Prediction: A Case Study with Berzosertib
Repurposing drugs whose clinical safety has been established offers a valuable approach to reduce the cost and time associated with the development of new drugs for malaria. Here, we investigate the potential to repurpose the anticancer kinase inhibitor berzosertib for the treatment of malaria, by assessing whether a predicted efficacious human dose ...

Artemisinins and synthetic peroxides as highly efficient antimalarials
Malaria is devastating disease and global public health problem, with nearly half world population exposed to risk. Illness is caused by five Plasmodium species, P. falciparum, P. ovale, P. vivax, P. malarie and P. knowlesi, from which P.

Artemisinin-based combinations
Artemisinin-based combination treatments have been the mainstay of treatment for falciparum malaria in Southeast Asia for more than 10 years and are now increasingly recommended as first-line treatment throughout the rest of the world.A large multicentre randomised trial conducted in East Asia has shown a 35% reduction in mortality from severe malaria ...

Hydroxamic Acids as HDAC Inhibitor Drug Leads for Malaria
ABSTRACT Malaria is a global health threat, with an estimated 282 million cases and 610,000 malaria‐associated deaths reported in 2024. Most mortality is due to infection by Plasmodium falciparum parasites, with the highest burden occurring in Sub‐Saharan Africa.

Plasmepsins as Antimalarial Drug Targets—Then, Now, and the Future
ABSTRACT Malaria is a devastating disease caused by Plasmodium parasites. Plasmodium parasites express ten cathepsin D‐like aspartyl proteases, called plasmepsins (PMs). These PMs have diverse roles fulfill diverse functions throughout the parasite's lifecycle, though several exhibit functional redundancies. Among them, PMV, PMIV, and PMX are essential

Split dosing of artemisinins does not improve antimalarial therapeutic efficacy [PDF]
It has been suggested recently, based on pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic modelling exercises, that twice daily dosing of artemisinins increases malaria parasite killing and so could “dramatically enhance and restore drug effectiveness” in artemisinin ...
