Antileishmanial Activity of 4,8-Dimethoxynaphthalenyl Chalcones on <i>Leishmania amazonensis</i>

Antileishmanial Activity of 4,8-Dimethoxynaphthalenyl Chalcones on <i>Leishmania amazonensis</i>

Leishmaniasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by <i>Leishmania</i> species. Available therapeutic options have several limitations. The drive to develop new, more potent, and selective antileishmanial agents is thus a major goal. Herein we report the synthesis and the biological a...
