This book comprehensively reviews current and novel treatment
strategies against human parasites, including protozoans and
helminths, using natural products. The initial chapters summarize
the conventional treatment strategies and natural-product based
therapeutics against these parasites. It discusses biochemical
tools and techniques for the discovery of natural product based
drugs against human parasites. The book also covers the ingenious
and innovative mechanisms to achieve drug resistance by the
protozoan parasites and strategies to overcome the resistance. It
entails mechanistic insight into the modulation of host immune
responses to delay or inhibit parasite clearance and explores
host-pathogen interactions that mediate immunity against subsequent
parasite challenge. In turn, the volume helps in understanding the
immunobiology of the parasites and tools to identify candidate
vaccine antigens and novel delivery systems against the protozoan
parasites. Lastly, it explores the role of advanced methods,
including nanotechnology, marine bioprospecting, and
microorganisms-derived biochemicals against the protozoan
parasites. This book is useful for students and researchers of
pharmacology, parasitology, zoology and other allied fields.
