Multidisciplinary Preclinical Investigations on Ferrocenyl, Ruthenocenyl, and Benzyl Derivatives of Niridazole as New Drug Candidates against Schistosomiasis

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 20, Issue 23, November 28, 2025.
Novel organometallic derivatives of niridazole are designed, synthesized, and tested against Schistosoma mansoni. Schistosomiasis affects hundreds of millions of people worldwide, yet its chemotherapeutic treatment is based on the only drug available‐praziquantel (PZQ).

Chromatographic Fingerprint Analysis and Effects of the Medicinal Plant Species Mitracarpus frigidus on Adult Schistosoma mansoni Worms

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The aims of this work were to evaluate the in vitro and in vivo schistosomicidal properties of the methanolic extract of the aerial parts of Mitracarpus frigidus (MFM) and to determine its HPLC profile. For the in vitro experiment, four pairs of adult worms, obtained from infected mice, were exposed to different concentrations of MFM (100 to 400 μg/mL)

Synthesis of 1,2,3‐Triazole‐Methyl‐Menadione Derivatives: Evaluation of Electrochemical and Antiparasitic Properties against two Blood‐Dwelling Parasites

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 20, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
The present study describes the synthesis and thorough investigation of 1,2,3‐triazole‐methyl‐menadione derivatives with particular emphasis on their electrochemical and physicochemical properties and their antiparasitic activities against Plasmodium falciparum and Schistosoma mansoni. Although less effective against P.

Cheminformatics Models for Inhibitors of Schistosoma mansoni Thioredoxin Glutathione Reductase

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by a parasite Schistosoma mansoni and affects over 200 million annually. There is an urgent need to discover novel therapeutic options to control the disease with the recent emergence of drug resistance.

Hybridisations within the genus Schistosoma: implications for evolution, epidemiology and control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
SUMMARYHybridization of parasites is an emerging public health concern in our changing world. Hybridization and introgression in parasites and pathogens can have major impacts on the host and the epidemiology and evolution of disease.

Ruthenium Catalysed Transfer Deuteration of Heteroaromatics in D2O

open access: yesAsian Journal of Organic Chemistry, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2025.
The partial reduction of heterocycles with selective deuterium incorporation using formic acid/sodium formate, D2O and a ruthenium catalyst was achieved. A biphasic medium (toluene/D2O) allowed excellent catalyst recycling. The ruthenium center allowed an inversion of polarity of D+ that was transformed into deuteride.

Antimicrobial Multidrug Resistance and Mechanisms of Action: An Overview

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Antimicrobial multidrug resistance is the ability of microorganisms to withstand the effects of several antimicrobial agents, presenting a major challenge to modern healthcare systems worldwide. Although considerable research has been conducted, the molecular and evolutionary mechanisms underlying resistance are still not completely understood.
