Aims Resistance to the artemisinins and the artemisinin‐based combination therapy (ACT) partner drugs has developed in Southeast Asia, and artemisinin resistance has also emerged in eastern Africa. Triple ACTs (triple artemisinin‐based combination therapies, TACT), consisting of two partner drugs with different mechanisms of action and similar ...

A molecular mechanism of artemisinin resistance in Plasmodium falciparum malaria
Artemisinins are the cornerstone of anti-malarial drugs. Emergence and spread of resistance to them raises risk of wiping out recent gains achieved in reducing worldwide malaria burden and threatens future malaria control and elimination on a global ...

La mitocondria en el género Plasmodium.
La mitocondria en las células eucarióticas juega un papel central en el metabolismo energético. En Plasmodium, la mitocondria se adapta morfológica y fisiológicamente a las condiciones metabólicas de sus hospederos.

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.

QSAR Analysis of Natural Lupeol Analogs as Antimalarial agents [PDF]
Malaria is an infectious disease that affects millions of people caused by Plasmodium parasite. The growing Plasmodium resistance underscores existing antimalarial drugs and necessities novel antimalarial drugs with high efficiency. Lupeol is a naturally

Batch Synthesis of Primaquine Diphosphate Anti‐Malarial Drug
According to the WHO, a child under the age of five dies every 2 minutes from malaria in Africa. It is therefore paramount that access and availability of anti‐malarial drugs must be improved. We report a process for the synthesis of Primaquine Diphosphate, where key intermediates were obtained in a much shorter reaction time compared to processes ...

Haem-activated promiscuous targeting of artemisinin in Plasmodium falciparum
The mechanism of action of artemisinin and its derivatives, the most potent of the anti-malarial drugs, is not completely understood. Here we present an unbiased chemical proteomics analysis to directly explore this mechanism in Plasmodium falciparum. We
