Mode of action on Trypanosoma and Leishmania spp.

In this chapter, the most common molecular targets and mechanisms of action of anti-trypanosomatid drugs are described: Biosynthesis of sterols, trypano-thione pathway, purine salvage pathway, cysteine proteinases, trans-sialidase, metallocarboxypeptidases, tubulin, calcium homeostasis and pyrophosp...
