Possible modes of action of the artemisinin-type compounds.

P L Olliaro1, R K Haynes, B Meunier, Y Yuthavong.   

Abstract

Artemisinin-type compounds are used for the treatment of uncomplicated and severe forms of malaria. They reduce parasitaemia more rapidly than any other antimalarial compound known, and are effective against multidrug-resistant parasites. However, uncertainties remain as to how they act on the parasite and cause toxicity. In this review, we summarize current ideas.
