The synthesis and antiprotozoal activity of some 3-alkoxy-1-alkyl- (1, 4) and 3-alkoxy-1-(ω-aminoalkyl)-5-nitroindazoles (2, 3, 5-8) against different morphological forms of Trypanosoma cruzi are reported. These compounds were prepared using simple alkylation reactions and, usually, taking advantage of the reactivity of some indazole-derived betaines previously studied by us. Most indazole derivatives showed in vitro activities similar or higher than those of the reference drug benznidazole; this fact, along with low unspecific cytotoxicities against Vero cells shown by some of them, led to very good selectivity indexes (SI). The high efficiency of 5-nitroindazoles 1 and 2 against T. cruzi was confirmed by further in vitro studies on infection rates and by an additional in vivo study in a murine model of acute and chronic Chagas disease. Complementary analyses of the changes in the metabolites excreted by the parasite and on the ultrastructural alterations induced after treatment with indazole derivatives 1 and 2 were also conducted.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D014355 Chagas Disease Infection with the protozoan parasite TRYPANOSOMA CRUZI, a form of TRYPANOSOMIASIS endemic in Central and South America. It is named after the Brazilian physician Carlos Chagas, who discovered the parasite. Infection by the parasite (positive serologic result only) is distinguished from the clinical manifestations that develop years later, such as destruction of PARASYMPATHETIC GANGLIA; CHAGAS CARDIOMYOPATHY; and dysfunction of the ESOPHAGUS or COLON.
