The pharmacokinetics and drug-drug interactions of ivermectin in <em>Aedes aegypti</em> mosquitoes (Publications)
Mosquitoes are vectors of major diseases such as dengue fever and malaria. Mass drug administration of endectocides to humans and livestock is a promising complementary approach to current insecticide-based
Phytochemical study and antiprotozoal activity of compounds isolated from <em>Thalia geniculata</em> (Publications)
Thalia geniculata L. (Marantaceae) is an African medicinal plant traditionally used in Benin to treat malaria and other parasitic diseases. There is little ethnobotanical and almost no chemical information available
Flow cytometric analysis on cross-reactivity of human-specific CD monoclonal antibodies with splenocytes of <em>Aotus nancymaae</em>, a non-human... (Publications)

mice. The optimized compounds were found to be more efficacious than the current antimalarials in a malaria mouse model. They exhibit moderate oral exposure in rat pharmacokinetic studies to achieve sufficient
Evaluation of ethnobotanically selected Benin medicinal plants for their in vitro antiplasmodial activity (Publications)
Twenty extracts from nine Benin medicinal plants, traditionally used to treat malaria, were screened for in vitro antiplasmodial activity towards Plasmodium falciparum K1 chloroquine resistant and 3D7
Discovery of a quinoline-4-carboxamide derivative with a novel mechanism of action, multistage antimalarial activity, and potent in vivo efficacy (Publications)
pharmacokinetic profile led to several compounds showing excellent oral efficacy in the P. berghei malaria mouse model with ED90 values below 1 mg/kg when dosed orally for 4 days. The favorable potency,
