Interactions between docetaxel (Taxotere) and Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes.
Taxotere (docetaxel) inhibits Plasmodium falciparum erythrocytic development in vitro at nanomolar concentrations, both in chloroquine-sensitive (F32/Tanzania) and chloroquine-resistant (FcB1/Colombia, FcR3/Gambia) strains. The dose-response assays performed on asynchronous cultures during 42 hr showed clear biphasic curves with a plateau from 50 microM to 10 nM and a single sigmoid curve with ...
متن کاملArtemisone uptake in Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes.
Artemisone is one of the most promising artemisinin derivatives in clinical trials. Previous studies with radiolabeled artemisinin and dihydroartemisinin have measured uptake in Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes. Uptake is much greater in infected than in uninfected erythrocytes, but the relative contributions of transport, binding, and metabolism to this process still await definitio...
متن کاملPlasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes: effects of arylaminobenzoates
Following invasion of the human erythrocyte by the malaria parasite, Plasmodiumfalciparum, there appear in the parasitized cell new, high-capacity permeation pathways that transport a diverse range of low-molecular-mass solutes. In this study a series of 16 arylaminobenzoates, analogues of the Clchannel blocker 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid (NPPB), were tested for their effects on...
متن کاملPlasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes form spontaneous erythrocyte rosettes
Erythrocytes infected with trophozoites or schizonts of Plasmodium falciparum bind uninfected erythrocytes, leading to rosette formation. Both established laboratory strains and fresh isolates from patients form such rosettes, but at widely different frequencies. IgG preparations from the serum of some P. falciparum-immune donors and heparin inhibited rosette formation. The results indicate tha...
متن کاملDownstream effects of haemoglobinase inhibition in Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes.
Blood-stage malarial parasites (Plasmodium falciparum) digest large quantities of host haemoglobin during their asexual development in erythrocytes. The haemoglobin digestion pathway, involving a succession of cleavages by various peptidases, appears to be essential for parasite development and has received much attention as an antimalarial drug target. A variety of peptidase inhibitors that ha...
