  • Methods for treating malaria by modulation of G protein function
    Publication number: 20040220198
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods and pharmaceutical compositions for treating a mammal suffering from malaria or the sequelae of malarial infection, or for preventing a malarial infection, or for ameliorating the symptoms associated with a malarial infection using a therapeutically effective amount of an agent that down regulates G protein mediated functions. Also contemplated are methods for screening for novel compounds that down regulate G protein receptors, and the use of these compounds for treating mammals having malaria.
