schistosoma

Nilutamide (RU23908), an antineoplastic hormonal agent, is mainly used in the treatment of prostate Y. Nilutamide is a pure, nonsteroidal anti-androgen with affinity for androgen receptors, but not for estrogen, progestogen, or glucocorticoid receptors. Therefore, Nilutamide can block the action of androgens of testicular and adrenal origin that stimulate the growth of malignant and normal prostatic tissue. Prostate Y is mainly androgen-dependent and can be treat with chemical castration or surgical. So far, antiandrogen monotherapy has not consistently been certified to be equivalent to castration.

RR-11a analog (aza-peptide Michael acceptor, 7a) is an inhibitor of asparaginyl endopeptidase with IC50s of 4.5 nM, 4.5 nM and 31 nM for AE1 in Trichomonas Vaginalis, AE in Ixodes ricinus and AE in Schistosoma mansoni, respectively.

Bithionol sulfoxide (Bithionoloxide) is a compound with inhibitory effects on parasites, suppressing the activity of Schistosoma japonicum and Fasciola hepatica.

Methylclonazepam is a benzodiazepine with anxiolytic properties. It inhibits the uptake of 5-hydroxytryptamine by Schistosoma mansoni, and its derivatives exhibit anti-Schistosoma mansoni activity.

Insecticidal agent 23 (compound 17) possesses anti-schistosomal properties with low toxicity. It exhibits strong in vitro activity against adult Schistosoma japonicum, with an LC50 (72 h) value of 25.31 μM.

Teroxalene Hydrochloride is disubstituted piperazine used to treat animals with Schistosoma mansoni.

Antiparasitic agent-10 (Compound 94) is a potent anti-parasitic agent with significant anti-schistosomal activity, particularly against adult Schistosoma mansoni, making it a promising candidate for Schistosomiasis research as a treatment option [1].

HDAC8-IN-2 (compound 5o) is a potent HDAC8 inhibitor with IC50 values of 0.27 μM and 0.32 μM for smHDAC8 (Schistosoma mansoni histone deacetylase 8) and hHDAC8, respectively. It effectively kills schistosome larvae and significantly reduces egg laying in adult worm pairs [1].

Hydrolapachol is a novel potent and selective inhibitor of schistosoma mansoni dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (smdhodh)

Z-Pro-Pro-CHO acts as a prolyl oligopeptidase inhibitor with half-maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of 0.16 μM for human prolyl oligopeptidase and 0.01 μM for Schistosoma mansoni prolyl oligopeptidase [1].
