The pharmacology of leishmaniasis
Gen Pharmacol.
1998 Apr.
Abstract
The development of new strategies on chemotherapy of parasitic protozoan diseases is one of the most exciting research fields of recent years. World Health Organization (WHO) reports have recognized that the physiology and biochemistry of protozoan parasites and the host-parasite relation are the main targets for the design of new drugs that can be used in the future against these diseases.
