Novel Alkylpolyamine Analogues that Possess Both Antitrypanosomal and Antimicrosporidial Activity
摘要:
A novel series of alkyl- or aralkyl-substituted polyamine analogues was synthesized containing a 3-7-3 polyamine back bone. These analogues were evaluated in vitro, and in one case in vivo, for activity as antitrypanosomal agents, and for activity against opportunistic infection caused by Microsporidia. Compound 21 inhibits trypanosomal growth with an IC50 as low as 31 nM, while compound 24 shows promising activity in vitro against trypanosomes, and against Microsporidia in vitro and in vivo.
