Abstract
Evidence is mounting that the race of living organisms for adaptation to the chemicals synthesized by their neighbors may drive community structures. Here, an ecoevolutionary model for community assembly through resource competition, toxin-mediated interactions (allelopathy), and evolutionary branching is investigated. We found that stable communities with increasing biodiversity can emerge at weak allelopathic suppression, but strong chemical warfare drastically impairs diversity. For successive invasion events, the allelopathic interaction networks exhibit, respectively, Gaussian and Weibull degree distributions at weak and strong allelopathy. For the branching process dynamics, degrees scale as power laws truncated by stretched exponentials in both regimes. In addition, allelochemical interactions tend to be arranged in modules with low clustering coefficients and disassortative behavior to ensure community stability. So, in a homogeneous environment, species-rich communities can be assembled only at the context of a weak biochemical warfare between organisms, and even under this regime species interact with only a few others.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although several research efforts have been made worldwide to discover novel drug candidates for the treatment of Chagas disease, the nitroimidazole drug benznidazol remains the only therapeutic alternative in the control of this disease. However, this drug presents reduced efficacy in the chronic form of the disease and limited safety after long periods of administration, making it necessary to search for new, more potent and safe prototypes. OBJECTIVE We described herein the synthesis and the trypanocidalaction of new functionalized carbohydrazonamides (2-10) against trypomastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi. METHODS These compounds were designed through the application of molecular hybridization concept between two potent anti-T. cruzi prototypes, the nitroimidazole derivative megazol (1) and the cinnamyl N-acylhydrazone derivative (14) which have been shown to be twice as potent in vitro as benznidazole. RESULTS The most active compounds were the (Z)-N'-((E)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)-acryloyl)-1-methyl-5- nitro-1H-imidazol-2-carbohydrazonamide (6) (IC50=9.50 μM) and the (Z)-N'-((E)-3-(4- hydroxyphe-nyl)-acryloyl)-1-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-2-carbohydrazonamide (8) (IC50=12.85 μM), which were almost equipotent to benznidazole (IC50=10.26 μM) used as standard drug. The removal of the amine group attached to the imine subunit in the corresponding N-acylhydrazone derivatives (11-13) resulted in less potent or inactive compounds. The para-hydroxyphenyl derivative (8) presented also a good selectivity index (SI = 32.94) when tested against mammalian cells from Swiss mice. CONCLUSION The promising trypanocidal profile of new carbohydrazonamide derivatives (6) and (8) was characterized. These compounds have proved to be a good starting point for the design of more effective trypanocidal drug candidates.

Abstract
Background:
Approximately, 5-7 million people are infected with T. cruzi in the world,
and approximately 10,000 people per year die of complications linked to this disease.
Method:
This work describes the construction of a new family of hidrazonoyl substituted derivatives,
structurally designed exploring the molecular hybridization between megazol and nitrofurazone.
Results and Discussion:
The compounds were evaluated for their in vitro activity against bloodstream
trypomastigotes of Trypanosoma cruzi, etiological agent of Chagas disease, and for their
potential toxicity to mammalian cells.
Conclusion:
Among these hydrazonoyl derivatives, we identified the derivative (4) that showed
trypanocidal activity (IC50/24 h = 15.0 µM) similar to Bz, the standard drug, and low toxicity to
mammalian cells, reaching an SI value of 18.7.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Near to 5-7 million people are infected with T. cruzi in the world, and about 10,000 people per year die of problems associated with this disease. METHODS Herein, the synthesis, antitrypanosomal and antimycobacterial activities of seventeen coumarinic N-acylhydrazonic derivatives have been reported. RESULTS These compounds were synthesized using methodology with reactions global yields ranging from 46%-70%. T. cruzi in vitro effects were evaluated against trypomastigote and amastigote, forming M. tuberculosis activity towards H37Rv sensitive strain and resistant strains. DISCUSSION Against T. cruzi, the more active compounds revealed only moderate activity IC50/96h~20 μM for both trypomastigotes and amastigotes intracellular forms. (E)-2-oxo-N'- (3,4,5-trimethoxybenzylidene)-2H-chromene-3-carbohydrazide showed meaningful activity in INH resistant/RIP resistant strain. CONCLUSION These compound acting as multitarget could be good leads for the development of new trypanocidal and bactericidal agents.

In (4: R = C6H5), C-H⋯O and π-π intra-molecular inter-actions combine to form a three-dimensional array. A three-dimensional array is also found for the hemi-DMSO solvate of [4: R = (3,4,5-MeO)3C6H2], in which the mol-ecules of coumarin are linked by C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π inter-actions, and form tubes into which the DMSO mol-ecules are cocooned. Hirshfeld surface analyses of both compounds are reported, as are the lattice energy and inter-molecular inter-action energy calculations of compound (4: R = C6H5).

Abstract
Microorganisms and plants very commonly release toxic secondary chemical compounds (allelochemicals) that inhibit or kill sensitive strains or individuals from their own or other species. In this work we study a model that describes two species interacting through allelopathic suppression and competing for resources. Employing linear stability analysis, the conditions for coexistence or extinction of species in spatially homogeneous systems were determined. We found that the borders between the regimes of bistability, coexistence, and the extinction of the weaker by the stronger competitor, are altered by allelopathic interactions. In addition, traveling wave solutions for one species invasion were obtained considering the spatially explicit nature of the model. Our findings indicate that the minimum speed of the invasion wavefronts depends primarily on the competition coefficients and the parameters characterizing the species' functional responses to their allelochemicals. As a general rule, the species provided with the most effective chemical weapons dominates the population dynamics. Finally, we found a tristability at the coexistence region due to the combination of allelopathy and patchy population distributions in space. So, our model provides a distinct mechanism, independent of social behaviors, that produces such unexpected tristability impossible in classical competition models involving one-to-one individual interactions.

Abstract
The crystal structures of (E)-1-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazole-2-carbaldehyde O-benzyl-oxime, C12H12N4O3, (I), (E)-1-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazole-2-carb-alde-hyde O-(4-fluoro-benz-yl) oxime, C12H11FN4O3, (II), and (E)-1-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazole-2-carbaldehyde O-(4-bromo-benz-yl) oxime, C12H11BrN4O3, (III), are described. The dihedral angle between the ring systems in (I) is 49.66 (5)° and the linking Nm-C-C=N (m = methyl-ated) bond shows an anti conformation [torsion angle = 175.00 (15)°]. Compounds (II) and (III) are isostructural [dihedral angle between the aromatic rings = 8.31 (5)° in (II) and 5.34 (15)° in (III)] and differ from (I) in showing a near-syn conformation for the Nm-C-C=N linker [torsion angles for (II) and (III) = 17.64 (18) and 8.7 (5)°, respectively], which allows for the occurrence of a short intra-molecular C-H⋯N contact. In the crystal of (I), C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into [010] chains, which are cross-linked by very weak C-H⋯O bonds into (100) sheets. Weak aromatic π-π stacking inter-actions occur between the sheets. The extended structures of (II) and (III) feature several C-H⋯N and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which link the mol-ecules into three-dimensional networks, which are consolidated by aromatic π-π stacking inter-actions. Conformational energy calculations and Hirshfeld fingerprint analyses for (I), (II) and (III) are presented and discussed.

Abstract
In the non-planar title compound, C16H14N2O2, the dihedral angle between the phenyl rings is 16.67 (8)°. An E conformation is found for each of the imine [1.286 (2) Å] and ethylene [1.335 (2) Å] bonds. The amide O and H atoms are anti, and an intramolecular hydroxy O—H⋯N hydrogen bond is noted. The formation of N—H⋯O(hydroxy) hydrogen bonds in the crystal packing leads to helical chains along the b axis. Supramolecular layers in the ab plane are formed as the chains are linked by C—H⋯O interactions.

Abstract
The conformation about each of the imine and ethene bonds in the title hydrazide hydrate, C16H13ClN2O·H2O, is E. The hydrazide molecule is approximately planar (r.m.s. deviation of the 20 non-H atoms = 0.172 Å). The most significant twist occurs about the ethene bond [C—C=C—C = 164.1 (5)°] and the dihedral angle formed between the benzene rings is 5.3 (2)°]. In the crystal, the presence of N—H⋯Ow and O—H⋯Oc (× 2; w = water and c = carbonyl) hydrogen bonds leads to a supramolecular array in the bc plane.

Abstract
A series of thirteen new megazol derivatives, designed exploring the molecular hybridization approach between megazol (3) and heterocombretastatins (2), was synthesized. These new compounds were tested for in vitro antiparasitic activity upon axenic amastigotes of Leishmania donovani. Biological results led us to identify a new potent megazol derivative (4g), which presents an IC(50) = 0.081microg/mL, more active tham the reference drug miltefosine (IC(50) = 0.131microg/mL).

Abstract
In the title compound, C(16)H(13)N(3)O(4), the dihedral angle between the terminal benzene rings is 14.02 (7)°. The carbonyl groups are anti with respect to each other, which facilitates their participation in the formation of supra-molecular chains. Each side of the -C(=O)N(H)N(H)C(=O)- residue associates with a centrosymmetrically related mol-ecule, resulting in the formation of essentially flat ten-membered {⋯O=CNN(H)}(2) synthons. The resultant chains are further consolidated in the crystal structure via C-H⋯O contacts.

Abstract
Megazol is a highly active compound against Trypanosoma cruzi, and has become a core structure for the design of new trypanocidal agents. Recently, we have identified the new potent trypanocide agent Brazilizone A, which presents an IC(50) twofold more potent than the prototype megazol. This result has encouraged us to further explore structurally-related 1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-arylhydrazone derivatives, in order to get a better understanding of their structural and antiprotozoal activity relationships. Herein we report the synthesis and trypanocidal profile of thirteen new Brazilizone A analogues, which supported the construction of 3D-QSAR models used for its structural optimization.

Abstract
In this work we reported the synthesis and the trypanocidal profile of new 1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-arylhydrazone derivatives of nitroimidazole series (4) or phenyl series (5), designed by exploring the molecular hybridization approach between megazol (2) and guanyl hydrazone derivative (3). The evaluation of the activity against bloodstream trypomastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi forms lead us to identify a new potent trypamomicide prototype, that is, brazilizone A (4k), which present an IC50/24 h=5.3 microM.

Abstract
The circumoval precipitin test (COPT), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the immunoblotting anti-adult worm antigen (AWA) and soluble egg antigen (SEA) tests were applied to 17 chronically schistosome-infected patients for the detection of anti-Schistosoma mansoni antibodies before and on four occasions after oxamniquine administration over a period of six months. Compared to a control group, schistosomiasis patients showed high levels of IgG antibodies in AWA and SEA-ELISA. A decrease in IgG levels was observed six months after treatment, although negative reactions were not obtained. Significant decreases in IgG1, IgG3 and, mainly, IgG4, but not anti-SEA IgG2 levels were observed six months after treatment, again without negativity. Analysis of anti-AWA IgG antibodies by immunoblotting before treatment showed a 31 kDa strand in 14 patients (82%) which disappeared in three cases up to six months after treatment; furthermore, anti-SEA IgG antibodies showed the same band in nine patients (53%) before treatment, which disappeared in only four cases up to six months after treatment.

Abstract
Fifteen adult patients with assymptomatic infection due to Clonorchis sinensis, diagnosed by coprological examination, were studied. They all came from Asia (twelve from Taiwan, two from South Korea and one from Hong Kong) and were examined at the Adolfo Lutz Institute and the Department of Infectious Diseases, School of Medicine, University of São Paulo, in São Paulo, Brazil. Six patients were women and nine men. All studied patients were admitted to hospital and treated with praziquantel (60 mg/kg). Previous to treatment and on the 15th, 30th and 60th days after praziquantel administration, patients were submitted to quantitative stool examinations, according to Kato-Katz's technique and to hematological and biochemical serum analysis. After a 60 day follow-up nine patients (60%) were negative for C. sinensis eggs in stools. Those not cured after praziquantel administration (six patients, 40%) revealed a sharp decline in faecal elimination of C. sinensis eggs.

Abstract
The humoral immune response of patients with intestinal and hepato-intestinal form of Mansoni's schistosomiasis treated with a single dose of Oxamniquine was evaluated by quantitation of IgG, IgM, IgA and IgE. A constant and significant increase of IgE was observed in the majority of patients after treatment. Augmentation of serum IgE after treatment was variable, but a 3 fold increase was observed. IgG increased slightly after treatment in 6 patients, and IgM increased in 5 patients under the same conditions. However, the difference between the levels of IgG and IgM before and after treatment was not significant. IgA levels were within the normal range, before and after treatment.
