Antileishmanial activity of novel indolyl-coumarin hybrids: Design, synthesis, biological evaluation, molecular docking study and in silico ADME prediction.

Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters
In present work we have designed and synthesized total twelve novel 3-(3-(1H-indol-3-yl)-3-phenylpropanoyl)-4-hydroxy-2H-chromen-2-one derivatives 13(a-l) using Ho(3+) doped CoFe2O4 nanoparticles as catalyst and evaluated for their potential antileis...

Computational Identification of Chemical Compounds with Potential Activity against Leishmania amazonensis using Nonlinear Machine Learning Techniques.

Current topics in medicinal chemistry
Leishmaniasis is a poverty-related disease endemic in 98 countries worldwide, with morbidity and mortality increasing daily. All currently used first-line and second-line drugs for the treatment of leishmaniasis exhibit several drawbacks including to...

Approved drugs successfully repurposed against based on machine learning predictions.

Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology
Drug repurposing is a promising approach towards the discovery of novel treatments against Neglected Tropical Diseases, such as Leishmaniases, presenting the advantage of reducing both costs and duration of the drug discovery process. In previous wor...

Scoping Review of Deep Learning Techniques for Diagnosis, Drug Discovery, and Vaccine Development in Leishmaniasis.

Transboundary and emerging diseases
, a single-cell parasite prevalent in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide, can cause varying degrees of leishmaniasis, ranging from self-limiting skin lesions to potentially fatal visceral complications. As such, the parasite has been the subj...

DeepLeish: a deep learning based support system for the detection of Leishmaniasis parasite from Giemsa-stained microscope images.

BMC medical imaging
BACKGROUND: Leishmaniasis is a vector-born neglected parasitic disease belonging to the genus Leishmania. Out of the 30 Leishmania species, 21 species cause human infection that affect the skin and the internal organs. Around, 700,000 to 1,000,000 of...

A deep learning-based model for detecting Leishmania amastigotes in microscopic slides: a new approach to telemedicine.

BMC infectious diseases
BACKGROUND: Leishmaniasis, an illness caused by protozoa, accounts for a substantial number of human fatalities globally, thereby emerging as one of the most fatal parasitic diseases. The conventional methods employed for detecting the Leishmania par...

Using machine learning to dissect host kinases required for Leishmania internalization and development.

Molecular and biochemical parasitology
The Leishmania life cycle alternates between promastigotes, found in the sandfly, and amastigotes, found in mammals. When an infected sandfly bites a host, promastigotes are engulfed by phagocytes (i.e., neutrophils, dendritic cells, and macrophages)...

Enhanced Detection of Leishmania Parasites in Microscopic Images Using Machine Learning Models.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Cutaneous leishmaniasis is a parasitic disease that poses significant diagnostic challenges due to the variability of results and reliance on operator expertise. This study addresses the development of a system based on machine learning algorithms to...

Application of Machine Learning (ML) approach in discovery of novel drug targets against Leishmania: A computational based approach.

Computational biology and chemistry
Molecules with potent anti-leishmanial activity play a crucial role in identifying treatments for leishmaniasis and aiding in the design of novel drugs to combat the disease, ultimately protecting individuals and populations. Various methods have bee...
