Article Synopsis
- Entamoeba histolytica is a protozoan parasite causing amebiasis, with a life cycle alternating between symptomatic trophozoites and dormant cysts, presenting a public health challenge due to complex drug treatment issues!*
-
- Recent lipidomics analysis highlighted the unique acyl chain structures in the parasite's lipids, which are crucial for its growth and survival, particularly through the activity of fatty acid elongases (EhFAEs).*
-
- Compounds like flufenacet and cafenstrole were found to inhibit EhFAEs, reducing trophozoite proliferation without affecting human cells, suggesting they could be potential lead candidates for new anti-amebiasis therapies.*
