spermidine has been researched along with Trypanosomiasis, African in 17 studies
Trypanosomiasis, African: A disease endemic among people and animals in Central Africa. It is caused by various species of trypanosomes, particularly T. gambiense and T. rhodesiense. Its second host is the TSETSE FLY. Involvement of the central nervous system produces African sleeping sickness. Nagana is a rapidly fatal trypanosomiasis of horses and other animals.

"DL-alpha-Difluoromethylornithine, a polyamine biosynthesis inhibitor, and bleomycin, a currently used antineoplastic agent, have each previously been shown to be curative for acute short-term infections of mice with Trypanosoma brucei brucei, an African trypanosome closely related to those that cause the human disease African sleeping sickness." | 3.66 | Efficacy of combinations of difluoromethylornithine and bleomycin in a mouse model of central nervous system African trypanosomiasis. ( Bacchi, CJ; Clarkson, AB; McCann, PP; Mellow, GH; Nathan, HC; Sjoerdsma, A, 1983) |
"Chemotherapy of human African trypanosomiasis is problematic because of the high frequency of severe adverse events, the long duration and high cost of treatment, and an increasing number of treatment-refractory cases." | 1.31 | New drugs for the treatment of human African trypanosomiasis: research and development.
