The leishmanicidal activity of plant antibiotic peptides (PAPs) from the principal families, such wheat thionins, a barley lipid transfer protein and potato defensins and snakins were tested in vitro against Leishmania donovani. Only thionins and defensins were active against this human pathogen at a low micromolar range of concentrations. Thionins resulted as the most active peptides tested un...

Alternative drugs against leishmaniasis are desperately needed. Antimonials, the main chemotherapeutic tool, cause serious side effects and promote chemoresistance. We previously demonstrated that representatives of N,C-linked arylisoquinolines are promising leishmanicidal drug candidates. We now performed structure-activity relationship studies varying the aryl portion of our lead substrate. T...

Background and objectives: Leishmaniasis is caused by the genus of Leishmania and is one of the important health problems worldwide. Serious side effects, the lack of effective vaccines and the emergence of drug resistance are the major weak points of leishmaniasis treatment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate leishmanicidal effects of Allium giganteum ...

Several aliphatic and aromatic lactones and two dimers were synthesized using the sequence: allylation - esterification - metathesis. These compounds were active in vitro against intracellular amastigotes of Leishmania panamensis. The structure-activity relationship showed the importance of the aliphatic side chain to enhance the biological activity and to obtain lower cytotoxicity. It was also...

A quantitative structure-activity relationship model for Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts with leishmanicidal activities was developed which correlates molecular orbital energy and dipole with percentage in the promastigote stage.

Leishmaniasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by protozoan parasites belonging to the genus Leishmania. Currently, the drugs available for treatment of this disease present high toxicity, along with development of parasite resistance. In order to overcome these problems, efforts have been made to search for new and more effective leishmanicidal drugs. The aim of this study was to synthes...

The anti-proliferative action of three alkyl-lysophospholipid derivatives, edelfosine (ET-OCH), miltefosine (Hexadecylphosphocholine), and ilmofosine (BM 14.440) has been studied on the promastigotes and amastigotes of Leishmania donovani. The effect of the three drugs has previously been studied, but the action mode was not clearly elucidated. In this study the effect on the intracellular amas...

Miltefosine [hexadecylphosphocholine (HPC)] is the only orally bioavailable drug for the disease visceral leishmaniasis, which is caused by the protozoan parasite Leishmania donovani. Although miltefosine has direct leishmanicidal effects, evidence is mounting for its immune system-dependent effects. The mechanism of such indirect antileishmanial effects of miltefosine remains to be discovered....
