Pioneer Use of Antimalarial Transdermal Combination Therapy in Rodent Malaria Model

open access: yesPathogens, 2023
We have previously reported 1,2,6,7-tetraoxaspiro [7.11]nonadecane (N-89) as a promising antimalarial compound. In this study, we evaluated the effect of transdermal therapy (tdt) of N-89 in combination (tdct) with other antimalarials as an application ...

Suppressing STAT3 activity protects the endothelial barrier from VEGF-mediated vascular permeability

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2021
Vascular permeability triggered by inflammation or ischemia promotes edema, exacerbates disease progression and impairs tissue recovery. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent inducer of vascular permeability.
