Purine nucleotide synthesis in protozoa takes place exclusively via the purine salvage pathway and S-adenosyl-l-homocysteine hydrolase (SAHH) is an important enzyme in the Plasmodium salvage pathway which is not present in erythrocytes. Here, we describe the antimalarial effect of 2′3′-dialdehyde adenosine or oxidized adenosine (oADO), inhibitor of SAHH, on in vitro infection of human erythrocytes by P. falciparum. Treatment of infected erythrocytes with oADO inhibits parasite development and reinvasion of new cells. Erythrocytes pre-treated with oADO have a reduced susceptibility to invasion. Our results suggest that oADO interferes with one or more parasitic enzymes of the purine salvage pathway.
