Hydrazinated geraniol derivatives as potential broad‐spectrum antiprotozoal agents

Archiv der Pharmazie, Volume 357, Issue 10, October 2024.
Hydrazinated geraniol derivatives were synthesised and tested in vitro against different parasitic protozoans of clinical relevance, including Trypanosoma brucei brucei, Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, Trypanosoma cruzi and Leishmania infantum. Compounds 6, 8, 13, 14 and 15 demonstrated low micromolar activity against the different parasites.

Kinetoplastids:related protozoan pathogens, different diseases [PDF]

, 2008
Kinetoplastids are a group of flagellated protozoans that include the species Trypanosoma and Leishmania, which are human pathogens with devastating health and economic effects. The sequencing of the genomes of some of these species has highlighted their

The challenging problem of disease staging in human African trypanosomiasis (sleeping sickness): a new approach to a circular question [PDF]

, 2017
Human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), also known as sleeping sickness, puts millions of people at risk in sub-Saharan Africa and is a neglected parasitic disease that is almost always fatal if untreated or inadequately treated. HAT manifests itself in two

Trypanosomes and gut microbiota interactions in triatomine bugs and tsetse flies: A vectorial perspective

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 253-268, September 2024.
Trypanosoma sp. presence modulates or has zero effect on gut microbiota composition. Microbiota presence modulates or has zero effect on Trypanosoma sp. growth. Vector biology of triatomine bugs and tsetse flies influences their gut microbiota composition.

Novel African trypanocidal agents: membrane rigidifying peptides [PDF]

, 2012
The bloodstream developmental forms of pathogenic African trypanosomes are uniquely susceptible to killing by small hydrophobic peptides. Trypanocidal activity is conferred by peptide hydrophobicity and charge distribution and results from increased ...

Identification of human-infective trypanosomes in animal reservoir of sleeping sickness in Uganda by means of serum-resistance-associated (SRA) gene.

, 2001
BACKGROUND: The expansion of sleeping sickness caused by Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense beyond its traditional focus in southeast Uganda has been linked with large-scale livestock restocking.

Activation of endocytosis as an adaptation to the mammalian host by trypanosomes [PDF]

, 2007
Immune evasion in African trypanosomes is principally mediated by antigenic variation, but rapid internalization of surface-bound immune factors may contribute to survival.
