SummaryL-amino acid esters such as leucine methyl ester (Leu-OMe) destroyLeishmania mexicana amazonensisamastigotes by a mechanism which may involve hydrolysis of the compounds by parasite enzymes. Moreover, several esters (e.g. Ile-OMe) prevent the killing of parasites by Leu-OMe, perhaps by inhibition of the hydrolytic enzymes.
