Anti-Malarial and Anti-Lipid Peroxidation Activities of Deferiprone-Resveratrol Hybrid in <i>Plasmodium berghei</i>-Infected Mice
Iron is essential for all organisms including fast-dividing malarial parasites. Inversely, iron chelators can inhibit parasite growth through the inhibition of DNA synthesis and can ameliorate oxidative cell damage. Deferiprone (DFP)-resveratrol (RVT) hybrid (DFP-RVT) is a lipophilic anti-oxidative,...
