Synthesis and Evaluation of the First Generation of Glycosylated Nucleoside Analogues as Potential Inhibitors of the Base J Metabolism in Kinetoplastid Parasites
Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 10, 9 March 2026.Novel analogues of the kinetoplastid‐specific DNA base J unlock a new way to target parasite epigenetic regulation. Some compounds selectively inhibit Leishmania and Trypanosoma species without harming human cells, revealing a promising route toward innovative antiparasitic therapies.Océane Monfret, Dan Liu, Manon Louis, Sihem Rebei, Dominique Urban, Yann Bourdreux, Elisabeth Mouray, Philippe Grellier, Gilles Doisneau, Dominique Guianvarc'h +9 morewiley +1 more sourceIn-hospital safety in field conditions of Nifurtimox Eflornithine Combination Therapy (NECT) for T.

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 5, Page 591-611, March 2026.Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...Leonor Loira, Sílvia Arroz‐Madeira, Cláudio A.

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2008 In Africa, the protozoan parasite of the genus Trypanosoma causes animal (AAT) and human African trypanosomiasis (HAT). These diseases are responsible for considerable mortality and economic losses, and until now the drugs commonly used have often been very toxic and expensive, with no vaccine available.Courtin, D., Berthier, D., Thevenon, S., Dayo, G.
