GINSBURG, HAGAI, GINZBURG, B. Z.

THO influx, 36Cl– influx and efflux and 22Na influx through maize cortex sleeves were assayed under different temperatures ranging from 5 to 40 °C. The highest Q10 and δH values for THO influx...

Potent antimalarial activity of clotrimazole in in vitro cultures of Plasmodium falciparum

Tiffert, Teresa, Ginsburg, Hagai, Krugliak, Miriam, Elford, Barry C., Lew, Virgilio L.

The increasing resistance of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum to currently available drugs demands a continuous effort to develop new antimalarial agents. In this quest, the identification...

Antimalarial Activities of Dermaseptin S4 Derivatives

Krugliak, Miriam, Feder, Rina, Zolotarev, Vadim Y., Gaidukov, Leonid, Dagan, Arie, Ginsburg, Hagai, ...

The hemolytic antimicrobial peptide dermaseptin S4 was recently shown to exert antimalarial activity. In this study, we attempted to understand the underlying mechanism(s) and identify derivatives...

In Vitro Antiplasmodium Effects of Dermaseptin S4 Derivatives

Dagan, Arie, Efron, Leah, Gaidukov, Leonid, Mor, Amram, Ginsburg, Hagai

The 13-residue dermaseptin S4 derivative K4S4(1-13)a (P) was previously shown to kill intraerythrocytic malaria parasites through the lysis of the host cells. In this study, we have sought peptides...

Tiffert, Teresa, Lew, Virgilio L., Ginsburg, Hagai, Krugliak, Miriam, Croisille, Laure, Mohandas, Narla

In most inherited red blood cell (RBC) disorders with high gene frequencies in malaria-endemic regions, the distribution of RBC hydration states is much wider than normal. The relationship between...

Cellular Uptake of Chloroquine Is Dependent on Binding to Ferriprotoporphyrin IX and Is Independent of NHE Activity in Plasmodium falciparum

Bray, Patrick G., Janneh, Omar, Raynes, Kaylene J., Mungthin, Mathirut, Ginsburg, Hagai, Ward, Stephen A.
