Antileishmanial activity of 2-amino-thiophene derivative SB-200.
Sousa JPA, Sousa JMS, Rodrigues RRL, Nunes TAL, Machado YAA, Araujo AC, da Silva IGM, Barros-Cordeiro KB, Báo SN, Alves MMM, Mendonça-Junior FJB, Rodrigues KADF. Sousa JPA, et al. Int Immunopharmacol. 2023 Oct;123:110750. doi: 10.1016/j.intimp.2023.110750. Epub 2023 Aug 1. Int Immunopharmacol. 2023. PMID: 37536181
The anti-amastigote activity of SB-200 is associated with in vitro immunomodulation. For acute toxicity, SB-200 against Zophobas morio larvae permitted 100% survival. We conclude that the 2-amino-thiophenic derivative SB-200 is a promising candidate for in vivo anti …

Józefiak A, Rawski M, Kierończyk B, Józefiak D, Mazurkiewicz J. Józefiak A, et al. BMC Vet Res. 2023 Aug 14;19(1):124. doi: 10.1186/s12917-023-03671-8. BMC Vet Res. 2023. PMID: 37580683 Free PMC article.
However, the effect of each type of meal on the lower taxonomic levels was evident, particularly in the case of the superworm meal. These microbiome differences indicated that mealworm meal was more related to fishmeal than superworm meal. Our results highlight the …
