The use of heterocyclic-based azo compounds bearing pyrrolidine, imidazole, triazole, and thiazole moieties for the treatment of neglected tropical disease caused by Schistosoma mansoni
Schistosomiasis (e.g. Schistosoma mansoni) is a neglected tropical disease caused by parasitic worms. It can advance from an acute (juvenile form) to chronic stage (adult form). Single-dose praziquantel (PZQ) is the only therapeutic drug option for adult schistosomiasis (SM) treatment, while its ina...
