8-amino-6-methoxyquinoline-tetrazole hybrids: Impact of linkers on antiplasmodial activity (Publications)
A new series of compounds was prepared from 6-methoxyquinolin-8-amine or its N-(2-aminoethyl) analogue via Ugi-azide reaction. Their linkers between the quinoline and the tert-butyltetrazole moieties differ

Central African taxon Ancistrocladus ealaensis. Likewise isolated were the new cyclombandakamines A8 (8) and A9 (9), which belong to another most recently discovered type of unusual oxygen-bridged naph
Synthesis and antiprotozoal activity of novel bis-benzamidino imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines (Publications)
glacial acetic acid gave the saturated analogue 2,6-bis[4-(amidinophenyl)]-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine 8. O-Methylation of the amidoximes 5a-d gave the N-methoxyamidines 6a-d. The diamidines
Novel dicationic imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines as antiprotozoal agents (Publications)
2-[5-(4-Amidinophenyl)-furan-2-yl]-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridi ne-6-carboxamidine acetate salt (7) was synthesized from 2-[5-(4-cyanophenyl)-furan-2-yl]-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-6-carbonitrile [...] good yield. Acetate salt of 2-[5-(4-amidinophenyl)-furan-2-yl]-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-6-carboxamidine (8a) was obtained from 4a, through the bis-O-acetoxyamidoxime followed by hydrogenation in a mixture of
The prevalence of antibodies to human herpesvirus 8 and hepatitis B virus in patients in two hospitals in Tanzania (Publications)
The aim of this study was to determine the seroprevalence of human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) and the immunization status for hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in febrile patients in two districts of the United [...] sent to the Virology Laboratory in Rome (Italy) for testing. HHV-8 DNA and HBV-DNA were amplified by two in-house molecular methods, anti-HHV-8 antibody titers were determined by an immunofluorescence assay [...] The seroprevalence of HHV-8 was 30.7% (96/313). In Pemba Island, the...
