ABSTRACT
Earlier genetic and inhibitor studies showed that epigenetic regulation of gene expression is critical for malaria parasite survival in multiple life stages and a promising target for new antimalarials. We therefore evaluated the activity of 350 diverse epigenetic inhibitors against multiple stages of Plasmodium falciparum We observed ≥90% inhibition at 10 µM for 28% of compounds against asexual blood stages and early gametocytes, of which a third retained ≥90% inhibition at 1 µM.
