Carbohydrate derivatives fight against the malaria parasite as anti-plasmodial agents
Carbohydrate derivatives fight against the malaria parasite as anti-plasmodial agents.
In this review, the importance of carbohydrate derivatives of different classes of compounds as possible antimalarials with emphasis on mode of action, rational design, and SAR with improved efficacy are discussed. The new candidates with novel modes of action are potent antimalarial drug candidates without any parasitic resistance.
