متن کاملMarine Organism: A Rich Source of Bioactive Metabolites
Introduction The marine resources are nowadays widely studied because of numerous reasons. One of the reason is as the oceans cover more than 70% of the world surface and among 36 known living phyla, 34 of them are found in marine environments with more than 300000+ known species of fauna and flora . The rationale of searching for drugs from marine environment stem from the fact that marine pla...
متن کاملMarine Algae as Source of Novel Antileishmanial Drugs: A Review
Leishmaniasis is a vector-borne neglected tropical disease caused by protozoan parasites of the Leishmania genus and transmitted by the female Phlebotomus and Lutzomyia sand flies. The currently prescribed therapies still rely on pentavalent antimonials, pentamidine, paromomycin, liposomal amphotericin B, and miltefosine. However, their low efficacy, long-course treatment regimen, high toxicity...
