Synthesis and biological activity of 6-formyl-oxamniquine derivative
Schistosomiasis, an important disease in Brazil, is caused by a trematode of the genus Schistosoma, reaching millions of person in one of the most endemic region of this disease in the whole globe. The main goal of this work was to syntetize the 6-formyl-

Physicochemical interactions of praziquantel, oxamniquine and tablet excipients
Abstract A differential scanning calorimetry and infrared spectrophotometry study of potential interactions between oxamniquine and praziquantel, two synergistic anti-parasitic drugs, indicated that they did not interact on fusion.

Similar cellular responses after treatment with either praziquantel or oxamniquine in Schistosoma mansoni infection. [PDF]
The effect of treatment with either oxamniquine or praziquantel on S. mansoni specific IFN-gamma, IL-4, IL-5 and IL-10 was compared on PBMC which were collected pretreatment, 6 and 18 weeks post treatment.

The immune-dependence of chemotherapy in experimental schistosomiasis
Experimental evidence indicates that immune effector mechanisms can enhance the activity of schistosomicidal drugs. Praziquantel, oxamniquine, hycanthone and antimony were less effective against Schistosoma mansoni infections in mice immunosuppressed by ...
