Potent Antimalarial Activity of Acriflavine In Vitro and In Vivo
Malaria continues to be a major health problem globally. There is an urgent need to find new antimalarials. Acriflavine (ACF) is known as an antibacterial agent and more recently as an anticancer agent. Here, we report that ACF inhibits the growth of asexual stages of both chloroquine (CQ) sensitive and resistant strains of human malarial parasite, Plasmodium falciparum in vitro at nanomolar co...
متن کاملGeraniol-derived 1,2,4-trioxanes with potent in-vivo antimalarial activity.
Geraniol, an abundantly available naturally occurring allylic alcohol, has been used as a starting material to prepare a series of 6-[alpha-(3'-aryl-3'-hydroxypropyl)vinyl]-1,2,4-trioxanes. Some of these novel trioxanes have shown very promising antimalarial activity against multi-drug resistant Plasmodium yoelii in mice by both intramuscular (im) and oral routes.
متن کاملIn vivo antimalarial activity of ginseng extracts.
CONTEXT Novel antimalarial agents are in demand due to the emergence of multidrug resistant strains. Ginseng, a medicinal plant with antiparasitic activity, contains components that can be used to treat the tropical disease malaria. OBJECTIVE Ginsenosides and polysaccharides are active components of ginseng. This study aimed to elucidate the ability of these compounds to inhibit the replicati...
متن کاملSynthesis and Potent Antimalarial Activity of Kalihinol B
Of the 50+ kalihinane diterpenoids reported to date, only five had been tested for antimalarial activity, in spite of the fact that kalihinol A is the most potent among the members of the larger family of antimalarial isocyanoterpenes. We have validated a strategy designed to access many of the kalihinanes with a 12-step enantioselective synthesis of kalihinol B, the tetrahydrofuran isomer of k...
متن کاملDiastereoselective synthesis of potent antimalarial cis-β-lactam agents
Fifteen novel β-lactams bearing the N-ethyl tert-butyl carbamate group 5a-o and fifteen N-(2-aminoethyl) β-lactams 6a-o were synthesized by the ketene-imine [2+2] cycloaddition reaction (Staudinger ). The cycloaddition reaction was found to be totally diastereoselective leading exclusively to the formation of the cis-β-lactam derivatives. These newly synthesized β-lactams were evaluated for the...
