Bioisosteric ferrocenyl aminoquinoline-benzimidazole hybrids: antimicrobial evaluation and mechanistic insights (Publications)
activity against the chloroquine-sensitive NF54 and multi-drug resistant K1 strains of the human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum. All compounds were active against the two strains, generally showing
A potent and selective reaction hijacking inhibitor of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> tyrosine tRNA synthetase exhibits single dose oral efficacy... (Publications)
ML471 is well-tolerated and shows single dose oral efficacy in the SCID mouse model of P. falciparum malaria. We confirm that ML471 is a reaction hijacking inhibitor that is converted into a tight binding Tyr-ML471
Integral solvent-induced protein precipitation for target-engagement studies in <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> (Publications)
mechanism of action (MoA) of several antimalarials and the rise of drug resistance toward existing malaria therapies emphasizes the need for new strategies to uncover the molecular target of compounds in

Schistosomiasis and soil-transmitted helminthiasis: common drugs for treatment and control (Publications)
More than 2 billion people are infected worldwide and the disease burden might approach that of malaria. Recognising the enormous public health significance of schistosomiasis and STH, particularly among
<em>Plasmodium </em>Helical Interspersed Subtelomeric (PHIST) proteins, at the Center of Host Cell Remodeling (Publications)
PfEMP1, gametocytogenesis, changes in cell rigidity, and also cerebral and pregnancy-associated malaria. Thus, we conclude that PHIST proteins are central to host cell remodeling, but despite their obvious
Evaluation of <em>in vitro</em> antiprotozoal activity of <em>Ajuga laxmannii </em>and its secondary metabolites (Publications)
Context Some Ajuga L. (Lamiaceae) species are traditionally used for the treatment of malaria, as well as fever, which is a common symptom of many parasitic diseases. Objective In the continuation of our
Antiprotozoal activity of <em>Buxus sempervirens</em> and activity-guided isolation of <em>O</em>-tigloylcyclovirobuxeine-B as the main constituent... (Publications)
Buxus sempervirens L. (European Box, Buxaceae) has been used in ethnomedicine to treat malaria. In the course of our screening of plant extracts for antiprotozoal activity, a CH2Cl2 extract from leaves
