  1. 6. Role of PfATP6 and pfMRP1 in Plasmodium falciparum resistance to antimalarial drugs

    Författare :Sabina Dahlström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Half of the world's population live at risk for malaria and nearly one million people die from the disease every year. The malaria burden is greatest in children and pregnant women in sub-Saharan Africa. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Plasmodium falciparum drug transporter genes in emerging malaria multidrug resistance

    Författare :Maria Isabel Mendes Veiga; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Malaria is caused by an intracellular protozoan parasite of the genus Plasmodium. The use of chemotherapy, the foremost tool available for the control of the disease, has been challenged in the last decades by the development and spread of drug resistance among malaria parasites.

  4. 8. Natural Products from Cameroonian Medicinal Plants

    Författare :Apollinaire Tsopmo; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Växtbiokemi; Plant biochemistry; antiplasmodial.; antitrypanosomal; diarylheptanoids; terpenoids; flavonoids; aframodial; Aframomum; Reneilmia cincinnata; Dorstenia; Euphorbia; Lepidobotrys staudtii; Pentadiplandra brazzeanea; Vernonia guineensis; Natural products; Myrica arborea;

    Sammanfattning : Natural product chemistry is a main research area in Cameroon, as well as for the division of Bioorganic Chemistry at Lund Institute of Technology. A review of the results obtained recently with Cameroonian medicinal plants shows that a large number of compounds, many with complex structures, have been isolated and characterised, and the work presented in this thesis is part of this effort.

  5. 9. Infectious diseases in returning Swedish travellers

    Författare :Helena Hervius Askling; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The number of travellers to “tropical” parts of the world has increased substantially during the past decades. Identifying risk groups and providing preventive measures is important both to reduce the number of travellers falling ill and to prevent introduction of diseases into new countries. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Search for genetic determinants of Plasmodium falciparum malaria drug resistance in vitro and in vivo

    Författare :Aminatou Kone; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Malaria remains the most deadly disease in the world with nearly 627 000 deaths and more than 200 million new clinical cases every year, the large majority occurring in sub Saharan Africa children aged < 5 years.
