Activities of 11-azaartemisinin and N-sulfonyl derivatives against asexual and transmissible malaria parasites
(Wiley, 2017)Dihydroartemisinin (DHA), either used in its own right or as the active drug generated in vivo from the other artemisinins in current clinical use—artemether and artesunate—induces quiescence in ring-stage parasites of ... -
Artemisone and artemiside are potent panreactive antimalarial agents that also synergize redox imbalance in Plasmodium falciparum transmissible gametocyte stages
(American Society for Microbiology, 2018)The emergence of resistance toward artemisinin combination therapies (ACTs) by the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum has the potential to severely compromise malaria control. Therefore, the development of new artemisinins ... -
Optimal 10-aminoartemisinins with potent transmission-blocking capabilities for new artemisinin combination therapies-activities against blood stage P. falciparum including PfKI3 C580Y mutants and liver stage P. berghei parasites
(Frontiers, 2020)We have demonstrated previously that amino-artemisinins including artemiside and artemisone in which an amino group replaces the oxygen-bearing substituents attached to C-10 of the current clinical artemisinin derivatives ... -
Synthesis, cytotoxicity and antiplasmodial activity of novel ferrocenyl-artemisinin hybrids
(North-West University (South-Africa). Potchefstroom Campus, 2019)Malaria is caused by a parasite of the genus Plasmodium. Of the five species that infect humans, Plasmodium falciparum is the most dangerous. This disease caused 435 thousand deaths in 2017. It is estimated that 266 thousand ...
