Published in 2024 at "Journal of Biological Inorganic Chemistry"

DOI: 10.1007/s00775-024-02063-z

Abstract: Encephalitozoon intestinalis is an opportunistic microsporidian parasite that primarily infects immunocompromised individuals, such as those with HIV/AIDS or undergoing organ transplantation. Leishmaniasis is responsible for parasitic infections, particularly in developing countries. The disease has not… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "European journal of medicinal chemistry"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2017.03.043

Abstract: Despite the fact that Leishmania ssp are pteridine auxotrophs, Dihydrofolate Reductase-Thymidylate Synthase (DHFR-TS) inhibitors are ineffective against Leishmania major. On the other hand Pteridine Reductase 1 (PTR1) inhibitors proved to be lethal to the parasite.… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Experimental parasitology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.exppara.2021.108082

Abstract: Leishmaniasis is a complex vector-borne disease mediated by Leishmania parasite and a strong and long-lasting CD4+ Th1 and CD8+-T cell immunity is required to control the infection. Thus far multivalent subunit vaccines have met this… read more here.
