Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT) is an endemic parasitic disease of sub-Saharan Africa, caused by two subspecies of protozoa belonging to Trypanosoma genus: T. brucei gambiense and T. brucei rhodesiense. In this context the inhibition of the papain-family cysteine proteases rhodesain and TbCatB

Thrombocytopaenia, or platelet aggregation, is a serious complication of African trypanosomiasis. The biochemical basis is not clearly known. Proteases are known potent inducers of blood coagulation and platelet aggregation, and unknown factors released by Trypanosoma brucei have been shown to

Identification of a 33-kilodalton immunodominant antigen of Trypanosoma congolense as a cysteine protease.

A 33-kDa protein of Trypanosoma congolense is a major antigen in infected cattle and the production of antibody to this antigen appeared to correlate with enhanced resistance to trypanosomiasis [4]. Immunoelectron microscopy using a monoclonal antibody (mAb 4C5) raised against the 33-kDa antigen

Several species of haematophagous tsetse flies (genus Glossina) are vectors for trypanosomes, the parasitic protozoans that cause Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT). Although there was a reduced incidence of HAT in the mid 1960s, decreased disease surveillance has led to a resurgence of HAT in

Antibody responses to a 33 kDa cysteine protease of Trypanosoma congolense: relationship to 'trypanotolerance' in cattle.

A cysteine protease of Trypanosoma congolense (congopain) elicited IgG1 antibodies in those cattle which exhibited a degree of resistance to disease during experimental infections (Authié et al. 1992, 1993). The aim of the present study was to investigate further the association between

Human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), a major health concern in sub-Saharan Africa, is caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei. Recent studies have shown that a cathepsin B like protease, TbcatB, is essential to the survival of T. brucei in vitro (Mackey, Z. B.; O'Brien, T. C.; Greenbaum,

Protozoan parasites are among the most prevalent pathogens worldwide. Diseases like malaria, leishmaniasis, amebiasis, and trypanosomiasis affect hundreds of millions of people. Recent advances in our understanding of the biochemistry and molecular biology of these organisms has focused attention on

The synthesis of parasitic cysteine protease and trypanothione reductase inhibitors.

The presence of parasitic cysteine proteases and trypanothione reductase in the parasitic protozoa of the genus Trypanosoma and Leishmania has made these enzymes attractive targets for the development of antitrypanosomal and antileishmanial agents. Furthermore, the presence of cysteine proteases in

Nicotinamide, a soluble compound of the vitamin B3 group, has antimicrobial activity against several microorganisms ranging from viruses to parasite protozoans. However, the mode of action of this antimicrobial activity is unknown. Here, we investigate the trypanocidal activity of nicotinamide on

The incidence of parasitic infections such as malaria, leishmaniasis, and trypanosomiasis has been steadily increasing. Since the existing chemotherapy of these diseases suffers from lack of safe and effective drugs and/or the presence of widespread drug resistance, there is an urgent need for

Aziridine-2,3-dicarboxylate inhibitors targeting the major cysteine protease of Trypanosoma brucei as lead trypanocidal agents.

BACKGROUND Trypanosoma brucei is the etiological agent of Human African Trypanosomiasis, an endemic parasitic disease of sub-Saharan Africa. TbCatB and rhodesain are the sole Clan CA papain-like cysteine proteases produced by the parasite during infection of the mammalian host and are implicated in
