Camel trypanosomiasis (Surra) is endemic in the Horn of Africa. Understanding the spatiotemporal variations in Surra prevalence, vector dynamics, and host‐related risk factors is important in developing effective control strategies. A repeated cross‐sectional study was conducted to determine the Surra parasitological prevalence, livestock reservoirs ...

Core‐Shell DNA‐Cholesterol Nanoparticles Exert Lysosomolytic Activity in African Trypanosomes**
The bioengineering of synthetic nanoparticles with therapeutic potential for the treatment of African sleeping sickness is reported. The molecules are DNA‐cholesterol amphiphiles, which self‐assemble into micelle‐type nanoparticles with an exterior DNA shell and a lipid core. The particles are constructed to attack two parasite‐specific targets thereby

Nowadays, despite the instauration of several control strategies, animal trypanosomiasis continues to be reported all over Uganda. Few canine African trypanosomiasis (CAT) studies have been carried out, yet dogs are known Trypanosoma reservoirs that share identical home ranges with livestock and serve as parasite link between livestock and humans. This

A library of 12 C3 triterpenic esters was readily synthesized and tested for antiparasitic activity and cytotoxicity evaluation. C3 esterification kept the activity while lowering the cytotoxicity. The most potent antitrypanosomal activity, coupled with great selectivity, was shown by 2‐fluoro phenylpropionate, phenylpropionate and α‐methyl ...

Trypanocidal Activity of Flavanone Derivatives [PDF]
Chagas disease, also known as American trypanosomiasis, is classified as a neglected disease by the World Health Organization. For clinical treatment, only two drugs have been on the market, Benznidazole and Nifurtimox, both of which are recommended for use in the acute phase but present low cure rates in the chronic phase.

Trypanocidal Essential Oils: A Review
Trypanosomiases are diseases caused by parasitic protozoan trypanosomes of the genus Trypanosoma. In humans, this includes Chagas disease and African trypanosomiasis. There are few therapeutic options, and there is low efficacy to clinical treatment. Therefore, the search for new drugs for the trypanosomiasis is urgent. This review describes studies of
