An Optimized Dihydrodibenzothiazepine Lead Compound (SBI-0797750) as a Potent and Selective Inhibitor of Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax Glucose 6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase 6-Phosphogluconolactonase

Isabell Berneburg et al.

Summary: This study reports on a highly selective PfGluPho inhibitor, SBI-0797750, which shows potent activity against Plasmodium parasites. The compound disturbs the redox potential and H2O2 homeostasis of the parasites, without harming red blood cell integrity and phagocytosis.

Summary: G6PDH plays a crucial role in cell physiology by catalyzing the synthesis of NADPH(+) and ribose 5-phosphate. The study discovered that 16 alpha-brominated epiandrosterone is the most potent inhibitor of G6PDH in trypanosomatids. Further investigations showed that bromination at position 16 alpha of androstane derivatives yielded more potent T. cruzi G6PDH inhibitors.
