In vitro assessment of cytotoxic, genotoxic and mutagenic effects of antimalarial drugs artemisinin and artemether in human lymphocytes.

Only registered users can translate articles

Artemisinin is a substance extracted from the Chinese plant Artemisia annua L. widely used in natural medicine for the treatment of various diseases. Artemether is a substance synthesized from artemisinin, and both drugs are commonly administered in the treatment of malaria. Although considered

In vitro evaluation of the cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of artemether, an antimalarial drug, in a gastric cancer cell line (PG100).

Only registered users can translate articles

Artemisinin is a sesquiterpene lactone endoperoxide, obtained from Artemisia annua, and extensively used as an antimalarial drug. Many studies have reported the genotoxic and cytotoxic effects of artemisinins; however, there are no studies that compare such effects between cancer cell lines and

Neurotoxicity assessment of artemether in juvenile rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Oral administration of artemether in combination with lumefantrine is approved for the treatment of malaria in adults and children. In adult animals, artemether can produce neurotoxicity with intramuscular, but not oral, administration. Herein, the potential of orally administered

Artemether as adjuvant therapy to praziquantel in murine Egyptian schistosomiasis mansoni.

We investigated the activity of artemether (ART) against different developmental stages of schistosomes alone and in addition to praziquantel (PZQ). ART was administered orally (400 mg/kg) 4 and 6 wk postinfection (PI), 4 and 5 wk PI, or 4 or 6 wk PI alone and in addition to oral PZQ (500 x 2 mg/kg)

Anti-angiogenic and anti-lymphangiogenic role of praziquantel and artemether in experimental mansoniasis.

Angiogenesis is one of the pillars of neoplasia. Lymphangiogenesis in context of granulomas is not yet understood. This study aimed to evaluate the role of praziquantel (PZQ) and artemether (ART) as anti-angiogenic and anti-lymphangiogenic drugs in Schistosoma mansoni induced experimental hepatic

Tumour necrosis factor allele variants and their association with the occurrence and severity of malaria in African children: a longitudinal study.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Tumour necrosis factor (TNF) is central to the immune response to Plasmodium infection. Its plasma concentration is influenced by allele variants in the promoter region of TNF. The study's objectives were to assess TNF allele variants (TNF(-1031), TNF(-308)): (1) modulation of malaria

Antimalarial Drug Artemether Inhibits Neuroinflammation in BV2 Microglia Through Nrf2-Dependent Mechanisms.

Only registered users can translate articles

Artemether, a lipid-soluble derivative of artemisinin has been reported to possess anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, we have investigated the molecular mechanisms involved in the inhibition of neuroinflammation by the drug. The effects of artemether on neuroinflammation-mediated HT22

Preparation, characterization, and evaluation of the anticancer activity of artemether-loaded nano-niosomes against breast cancer.

The aim of this study was to develop nonionic surfactant vesicles (niosomes) as a promising nanocarrier to enhance the anticancer activity of artemether.The niosomes were prepared by thin-film hydration method containing a mixture of Span, Tween and

Folate receptor alpha targeted delivery of artemether to breast cancer cells with folate-decorated human serum albumin nanoparticles.

Only registered users can translate articles

The pharmaceutical application of artemether (ARM) as an anticancer natural agent is hampered due to its poor solubility and bioavailability. In the present study, ARM was encapsulated in human serum albumin nanoparticles (HSA NPs) via desolvation method led to improvement of the water solubility by

Development and in vitro/in vivo evaluation of artemether and lumefantrine co-loaded nanoliposomes for parenteral delivery.

Only registered users can translate articles

Combination therapy of artemether (ART) and lumefantrine (LUM) is well-established for the treatment of uncomplicated malaria worldwide. Nanoliposomes (NLs) encapsulating both drugs were prepared and freeze-dried. The lyophilized nanoliposomes exhibited high entrapment efficiency of artemether

Neurotoxicity and artemisinin compounds do the observations in animals justify limitation of clinical use?

Only registered users can translate articles

High parenteral doses of certain artemisinin derivatives can produce a limited and unique, selective brain stem neuronopathy in laboratory animals. There is necrosis of a small number of nerve cells in certain brain stem nuclei and more extensive chromatolysis of neurons in the same nuclei a few

Lactic acidosis and hypoglycaemia in children with severe malaria: pathophysiological and prognostic significance.

Only registered users can translate articles

Serial clinical and metabolic changes were monitored in 115 Gambian children (1.5-12 years old) with severe malaria. Fifty-three children (46%) had cerebral malaria (coma score < or = 2) and 21 (18%) died. Admission geometric mean venous blood lactate concentrations were almost twice as high in

From ancient herb to modern drug: Artemisia annua and artemisinin for cancer therapy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Artemisia annua L. is used throughout Asia and Africa as tea and press juice to treat malaria and related symptomes (fever, chills). Its active ingredient, artemisinin (ARS), has been developed as antimalarial drug and is used worldwide. Interestingly, the bioactivity is not restricted to malaria
