Histone deacetylase enzymes as potential drug targets of Neglected Tropical Diseases caused by cestodes
23 Feb 2019
Abstract excerpt
Cestode parasites cause neglected diseases, such as echinococcosis and cysticercosis, which represent a significant problem in human and animal health. Benzimidazoles and praziquantel are the only available drugs for chemotherapy and it is therefore important to identify new alternative drugs against cestode parasites.
