Proteomic Analysis of the Schistosoma mansoni Miracidium
Despite extensive control efforts, schistosomiasis continues to be a major public health problem in developing nations in the tropics and sub-tropics. The miracidium, along with the cercaria, both of which are water-borne and free-living, are the only ...

Synthesis of Rhamnose‐Modified Lewis‐X‐Containing Saponins
The synthesis of triterpenoid saponins bearing a Lewis‐X trisaccharide analogue, in which the fucose residue is replaced by a rhamnose, is presented. These saponins, designed as negative controls in dendritic cell‐specific intercellular adhesion molecule‐3‐grabbing nonintegrin‐targeted therapeutic applications, are prepared through iterative and ...

Hybrid Molecules as Efficient Drugs against Multidrug‐Resistant Malaria Parasites
Among hybrid molecules currently developed as antimalarial drug candidates, emoquine‐1 exhibits high activity against all the multidrug‐resistant Plasmodium strains tested up to now, including artemisinin‐resistant quiescent parasites, critical parameters for promising antimalarial drugs. It is also curative in mouse malaria.
