Ten 2-substituted quinoline alkaloids isolated from a plant used for treatment of New World cutaneous leishmaniasis have antileishmanial in vitro activities against the extracellular forms of Leishmania spp. BALB/c mice infected with Leishmania amazonensis PH8 or H-142 or Leishmania venezuelensis were treated 1 day after the parasitic infection with a quinoline alkaloid (100 mg/kg of body weigh...

For localization of pyroantimonate-precipitable cations, mouse testes were fixed with a saturated aqueous solution of potassium pyroantimonate (pH about 9 .2, without addition of any conventional fixative), hardened with formaldehyde, and postosmicated . A good preservation of the cell membranes and over-all cell morphology is obtained as well as a consistent and reproducible localization of th...

Antimony (Sb) accumulation in rice is a potential threat to human health, but its uptake mechanisms are unclear. A hydroponic experiment was conducted to investigate uptake, translocation, speciation and subcellular distribution of Sb in rice plants exposed to antimonite (SbIII) and antimonate (SbV) at 0.2, 1.0 or 5.0 mg/L for 4h. More Sb was accumulated in iron plaque than in the plant, with b...

visceral leishmaniasis (vl) is usually treated with pentavalent antimonial drugs given alone or in combination with other drugs. the efficacy of these treatments is diminishing, however, and development of alternative treatments has been recommended.we studied 13 patients with leishmaniasis who were unresponsive to meglumine antimonate, at a dose of 20 mg/kg body weight/per day given for 30 day...

In the title compound, (C(7)H(10)N)(3)[SbCl(5)]Cl, the Sb(III) cation is coordinated by five Cl(-) anions in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry, in which the longest Sb-Cl distance of 3.0319 (14) Å indicates a weak coordination bond. In the crystal, the 3-methyl-anilinium cations link with the complex antimonate anions and Cl(-) anions via N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds.
