Journal: Anti-COVID Drugs (MMV COVID Box) as Leishmanicidal Agents: Unveiling New Therapeutic Horizons. (Pubmed Central) - Mar 28, 2024 In conclusion, our study identifies bortezomib as a promising aspirant for leishmaniasis treatment, demonstrating potent antiparasitic activity, favorable pharmacokinetics, and low toxicity. These findings emphasize the potential repurposing of existing drugs for neglected diseases and highlight the importance of the COVID Box in drug discovery against tropical diseases.

Journal: Aromatic or Hetero-aromatic Directly Attached Tri and Tetrasubstituted Methanes: New Chemical Entities as Anti-infectives. (Pubmed Central) - Mar 7, 2023 Properties of repurposed TRSMs like Almitrine, Ifenprodil, Baricitinib and Remdesivir with their recent progress in Covid-19 therapeutics with their mode of action are also delineated. This perspective is expected to deliver a user guide and reference source for scientists, researchers and academicians in pursuing newly designed TRSMs as therapeutics.

Review, Journal: Ventilation/Perfusion Mismatch: A Novel Target for COPD Treatment. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 10, 2022 We review the conflicting evidence supporting current treatments for gas-exchange inefficiency and exercise tolerance which act primarily on VA (bronchodilators, anti-inflammatory medications) or Qc (oral and inhaled vasodilators, almitrine and supplemental oxygen). Finally, to address the current knowledge and health-care gaps, we propose two independent clinical research foci that may lead to a better understanding of the role of pulmonary gas-exchange efficiency and activity-related dyspnea in COPD: 1) improved and deeper phenotyping of COPD patients with VA/Qc abnormalities, and, 2) evaluation of existing and novel pharmacological treatments in relation to improved gas-exchange inefficiency, exertional dyspnea, and exercise tolerance across the spectrum of COPD severity.

Preclinical, Journal: Drug Repurposing Based on Protozoan Proteome: In Vitro Evaluation of In Silico Screened Compounds against Toxoplasma gondii. (Pubmed Central) - Aug 27, 2022 Almitrine demonstrated a Selectivity Index (provided by the ratio between the Half Cytotoxic Concentration against human foreskin fibroblasts and the Half Effective Concentration against T. gondii tachyzoites) that was higher than 47, whilst being considered a lead compound against T. gondii. Almitrine showed interactions with the Na/K ATPase transporter for Homo sapiens and Mus musculus, indicating a possible mechanism of action of this compound.

Review, Journal: Covid-19 and Artificial Intelligence: Genome sequencing, drug development and vaccine discovery. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 9, 2022 The growth of AI techniques in health care opened a broad gate for discovering the genomic sequences of the COVID-19 virus and the VOC. AI helps also in the development of vaccines and drugs (including drug repurposing) to obtain potential preventive and therapeutic agents for controlling the COVID-19 pandemic.

Journal: Use of Almitrine and Inhaled Nitric Oxide in ARDS Due to COVID-19. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 20, 2021 This combination may be of interest when first-line therapies fail to restore adequate oxygenation. These findings argue for an impaired pulmonary hypoxic vasoconstriction in these patients.
