deferoxamine and Parasitemia

deferoxamine has been researched along with Parasitemia in 5 studies

Deferoxamine: Natural product isolated from Streptomyces pilosus. It forms iron complexes and is used as a chelating agent, particularly in the mesylate form.
desferrioxamine B : An acyclic desferrioxamine that is butanedioic acid in which one of the carboxy groups undergoes formal condensation with the primary amino group of N-(5-aminopentyl)-N-hydroxyacetamide and the second carboxy group undergoes formal condensation with the hydroxyamino group of N(1)-(5-aminopentyl)-N(1)-hydroxy-N(4)-[5-(hydroxyamino)pentyl]butanediamide. It is a siderophore native to Streptomyces pilosus biosynthesised by the DesABCD enzyme cluster as a high affinity Fe(III) chelator.

Parasitemia: The presence of parasites (especially malarial parasites) in the blood. (Dorland, 27th ed)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"DFO is known to reduce the intensity of Trypanosoma cruzi infections in mice even during a course of therapy that is not effective in maintaining anaemia or low iron levels."1.37Trypanosoma cruzi: desferrioxamine decreases mortality and parasitemia in infected mice through a trypanostatic effect. ( Arantes, JM; Araújo, MS; Carneiro, CM; de Abreu Vieira, PM; de Carvalho, AT; Elói-Santos, SM; Francisco, AF; Martins-Filho, OA; Pedrosa, ML; Silva, M; Tafuri, WL, 2011)
" In the present study, the effects of benznidazole (BZ) therapy in combination with the iron chelator desferrioxamine (DFO) on the development of infection in mice inoculated with Trypanosoma cruzi Y strain have been investigated."1.35Trypanosoma cruzi: effect of benznidazole therapy combined with the iron chelator desferrioxamine in infected mice. ( Arantes, JM; Bahia, MT; Carneiro, CM; de Abreu Vieira, PM; de Lana, M; Francisco, AF; Martins, HR; Pedrosa, ML; Silva, M; Tafuri, WL; Veloso, VM, 2008)
"Parasitemia was reduced by all three treatment regimens; however, long-term survival was obtained only by treatment with liposomal DFO (days 7 and 8, 400 mg/kg/day)."1.30Plasmodium vinckei: optimization of desferrioxamine B delivery in the treatment of murine malaria. ( Eling, WM; Hermsen, CC; Postma, NS; Zuidema, J, 1998)
"Dexrazoxane was recently approved to protect humans from doxorubucin-induced cardiotoxicity."1.30Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium yoelii: effect of the iron chelation prodrug dexrazoxane on in vitro cultures. ( Boehme, P; Gordeuk, VR; John, C; Loyevsky, M; Sacci, JB; Weglicki, W, 1999)
