Imatinib activity on Schistosoma mansoni [PDF]

Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2013
Imatinib, a drug used for treatment of human chronic myeloid leukaemia, due to its activity against protein kinases, has been also evaluated in vitro against Schistosoma mansoni showing high schistosomicidal activity. In the present experiments imatinib activity in vitro was confirmed at the doses of 25 µM, 50 µM and 100 µM.
