Structurally optimized analogs of the retrograde trafficking inhibitor Retro-2cycl limit Leishmania infections.
In infected mammalian cells, Leishmania parasites reside within specialized compartments called parasitophorous vacuoles (LPVs). We have previously shown that Retro-2, a member of a novel class of small retrograde pathway inhibitors caused reduced LPV sizes and lower parasite numbers during experime...
