Global Health Priority Box: Discovering Flucofuron as a Promising Antikinetoplastid Compound
Leishmaniasis, produced by Leishmania spp., and Chagas disease, produced by Trypanosoma cruzi, affect millions of people around the world. The treatments for these pathologies are not entirely effective and produce some side effects.

Anti-Trypanosoma cruzi effects of cyclosporin A derivatives: possible role of a P-glycoprotein and parasite cyclophilins [PDF]
Cyclophilins are target molecules for cyclosporin A (CsA), an immunosuppressive antimicrobial drug. We have previously reported the in vitro anti-Trypanosoma cruzi activity of H-7-94 and F-7-62 non-immunosuppressive CsA analogues.

Natural selection and genetic variation in a promising Chagas disease drug target: Trypanosoma cruzi trans-sialidase [PDF]
Rational drug design is a powerful method in which new and innovative therapeutics can be designed based on knowledge of the biological target aiming to provide more efficacious and responsible therapeutics.

A Trypanosoma cruzi protozoa, a Chagas betegség kórokozója, Latin Amerikában évente 12-14 millió ember fertőzéséért felelős. A betegség kezelésére jelenleg alkalmazott szerek hatásossága nem kielégítő, különösen a betegség gyakori, krónikus formája ellen.

[Introduction of changes in the DNA of Trypanosoma cruzi by trypanocidal agents].
Incubation of Trypanosoma cruzi culture (epimastigote) forms with nifurtimox (10 or 100 microM), benznidazole (38 or 380 microM) and beta-lapachone (1.6 or 7.8 microM) produced damage of nuclear DNA, as shown by the increased rate of the "unscheduled DNA synthesis" in epimastigotes arrested at phase S (9-, 3-, and 6-fold, respectively). alpha-lapachone,
