Evaluating 5-Nitrothiazoles as Trypanocidal Agents.

Ivan P O'Shea1, Mohammed Shahed1, Benjamín Aguilera-Venegas2, Shane R Wilkinson3.   

Abstract

The growth-inhibitory properties of a 5-nitrothiazole series were evaluated against Trypanosoma brucei. A subset of related compounds displayed the greatest potency toward the parasite while exhibiting little cytotoxic effect on mammalian cells, with this antiparasitic activity dependent on expression of a type I nitroreductase by the trypanosome. We conclude that the 5-nitrothiazole class of nitroheterocyclic drugs may represent a new lead in the treatment of human African trypanosomiasis.
