Studies of gene function and molecular mechanisms in Plasmodium falciparum are hampered by difficulties in characterizing and measuring phenotypic differences between individual parasites. We screened...

Reinvestigation of drugs and chemicals as aquaporin-1 inhibitors using pressure-induced hemolysis in human erythrocytes.

Biol. Pharm. Bull. 35(11) , 2088-91, (2012)

Recently, we have found that pressure-induced hemolysis is enhanced by inhibiting water transport via aquaporin-1 (AQP1), as seen in p-chloromercuribenzoate (pCMB)-treated erythrocytes. So, using this...

Modifying culture conditions in chemical library screening identifies alternative inhibitors of mycobacteria.

Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 53 , 5279-83, (2009)

In this study, application of a dual absorbance/fluorescence assay to a chemical library screen identified several previously unknown inhibitors of mycobacteria. In addition, growth conditions had a s...
