Identification via a Parallel Hit Progression Strategy of Improved Small Molecule Inhibitors of the Malaria Purine Uptake Transporter that Inhibit Plasmodium falciparum Parasite Proliferation
Abstract
Emerging resistance to current antimalarial medicines underscores the importance of identifying new drug targets and novel compounds. Malaria parasites are purine auxotrophic and import purines via the Plasmodium falciparum equilibrative nucleoside transporter type 1 (PfENT1). We previously showed that PfENT1 inhibitors block parasite proliferation in culture. Our goal was to identify additional, possibly more optimal chemical starting points...
