Potencies of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Protease Inhibitors In Vitro against <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> and In Vivo against Murine Malaria
25 Jan 2006
Abstract excerpt
Parasite resistance to antimalarial drugs is a serious threat to human health, and novel agents that act on enzymes essential for parasite metabolism, such as proteases, are attractive targets for drug development. Recent studies have shown that clinically utilized human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) protease inhibitors can inhibit the in vitro growth of Plasmodium falciparum at or below concentrations found in...
