Abstract

Picking a fight with parasites! Trypanothione reductase (TR) is a validated drug target for the development of antileishmanial agents. A group of structurally diverse gold-containing compounds was evaluated in vitro for TR inhibition. A number of compounds exhibited potent activity and deserve further pharmacological evaluation.
