Malaria eradication is a global health priority, but current therapies are not always suitable for providing a radical cure. Artemisinin has paved the way for the current malaria treatment, the so-called Artemisinin-based Combination Therapy (ACT). However, with the detection of resistance to ACT, innovative compounds active against multiple parasite species and at multiple life stages are needed.
消灭疟疾是全球卫生的重中之重,但是当前的治疗方法并不总是适合提供彻底的治疗方法。青蒿素为目前的疟疾治疗铺平了道路,所谓的基于青蒿素的联合疗法(ACT)。但是,随着对ACT的抗性的检测,需要对多种寄生虫物种具有多种生命周期且具有活性的创新化合物。葛兰素史克最近披露了内部图书馆的表型筛选结果,发表了400种抗疟药化学型的集合,称为“疟疾箱”。对数据集进行分析后,我们开展了一项药物化学研究活动,以定义一种释放化合物的结构-活性关系,该关系体现了苯并噻吩-2-羧酰胺核心。制备了35种化合物,本文报道了恶性疟原虫,毒性和代谢稳定性。
