Taurine potentiates artemisinin efficacy against malaria by modulating the immune response in Plasmodium berghei-infected mice
Abstract Background Artemisinin (ART) is a frontline drug for the treatment of malaria; however, the emergence of ART-resistant Plasmodium strains necessitates increasing ART sensitivity. Given that taurine (TAU) has been shown to have immunomodulatory activity, we investigated the effects of TAU as...
