Varying efficacy of artesunate+amodiaquine and artesunate+sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine for the treatment of uncomplicated falciparum malaria in the Democratic Republic of Congo: a report of two in-vivo studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
BACKGROUND: Very few data on anti-malarial efficacy are available from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). DRC changed its anti-malarial treatment policy to amodiaquine (AQ) and artesunate (AS) in 2005.

Mode of action and choice of antimalarial drugs for intermittent preventive treatment in infants.

open access: yes, 2009
Intermittent preventive treatment in infants (IPTi) is an effective and safe malaria control strategy. However, it remains unclear what antimalarials should be used to replace sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) when and where SP is no longer an effective ...

Genetic and genomic approaches for the discovery of parasite genes involved in antimalarial drug resistance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The biggest threat to the war on malaria is the continued evolution of drug resistance by the parasite. Resistance to almost all currently available antimalarials now exists in Plasmodium falciparum which causes the most suffering among all human malaria

Protectiveness of Artesunate Given Prior Ischemic Cerebral Infarction Is Mediated by Increased Autophagy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
Background: Ischemic cerebral infarction is a severe clinical condition that can cause serious mortality. Artesunate, an anti-malarial drug that is widely used in cancer treatment, is known to facilitate accelerated cell apoptosis.

Reduction of transmission from malaria patients by artemisinin combination therapies: a pooled analysis of six randomized trials. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
BACKGROUND: Artemisinin combination therapies (ACT), which are increasingly being introduced for treatment of Plasmodium falciparum malaria, are more effective against sexual stage parasites (gametocytes) than previous first-line antimalarials and ...

Pyronaridine–artesunate and artemether–lumefantrine for the treatment of uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria in Kenyan children: a randomized controlled non-inferiority trial

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2018
Background Pyronaridine–artesunate is a novel artemisinin-based combination therapy. The efficacy and safety of pyronaridine–artesunate were compared with artemether–lumefantrine for the treatment of uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria in ...

Tandem Mass Spectrometry and Bio‐Guided Isolation of Secondary Metabolites With Antiplasmodial Activity From Dalbergia miscolobium Bark

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Strategies have been employed to address antimalarial drug resistance, including the exploration of new therapeutic targets. In this study, the stem bark of Dalbergia miscolobium was investigated using in vitro assays against Plasmodium falciparum and pyruvate kinase II (PyrKII), an essential enzyme for parasite development.

Glyoxalase‐1 Inhibition Leads to Ferroptosis Induction in Lung Cancer Cells: A Dual Mechanism of Action of Hydroxamic Acids Derived from Cysteine

open access: yesChemMedChem, EarlyView.
A set of three cysteine‐derived hydroxamic acids were synthesized and evaluated for human gloxalase‐1 inhibition and ferroptosis induction activities. Among them, compound 2 exhibited a potent inhibitory effect against human glyoxalase‐1 and induced ferroptosis in non‐small cell lung cancer cell lines, increasing reactive oxygen species production and ...
