DFT Studies and Topological Analyses of Electron Density on Acetophenone and Propiophenone Thiosemicarbazone Derivatives as Covalent Inhibitors of Falcipain-2, a Major Plasmodium Falciparum Cysteine Protease
Thiosemicarbazones (TSCs) possess significant antimalarial properties believed to be linked to the inhibition of major cysteine proteases, such as falcipain-2, in Plasmodium falciparum. However, the binding modes of TSCs to the active site of these enzymes are not clear. As a result of this, the nature of the bonding interactions between the active site of falcipain-2 and different derivatives ...
متن کاملA chimeric cysteine protease of Plasmodium berghei engineered to resemble the Plasmodium falciparum protease falcipain-2.
The cysteine proteases falcipain-2 and falcipain-3 are hemoglobinases and potential targets for chemotherapy directed against Plasmodium falciparum, the most important human malaria parasite. Most in vivo evaluations of candidate antimalarials are conducted in murine malaria models, and falcipain homologs from rodent malaria parasites differ importantly from falcipain-2 and falcipain-3. We expr...
متن کاملRESISTANCE OF PLASMODIUM FALCIPARUM TO CHLOROQUINE IN SOUTH EASTERN IRAN
In vivo and in vitro assessments of the response of P. falciparum to chloroquine using WHO standard kits and techniques were carried out in I ran Shahr, Sistan and Baluchestan province of Iran in 1985. In the in vivo assessment, 24 malaria patients treated with chloroquine (25mg/kg over three days) were followed up for one to four weeks. The mean parasite clearance time was 4.3 days and in...
متن کاملSynergy of human immunodeficiency virus protease inhibitors with chloroquine against Plasmodium falciparum in vitro and Plasmodium chabaudi in vivo.
The synergy of the activities between chloroquine and various human immunodeficiency virus protease inhibitors was investigated in chloroquine-resistant and -sensitive malaria parasites. In both in vitro and in vivo assay systems, ritonavir was found to be the most potent in potentiating the antimalarial action of chloroquine.
