The Ionophores CCCP and Gramicidin but Not Nigericin Inhibit Trypanosoma brucei Aquaglyceroporins at Neutral pH

Human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) is caused by Trypanosoma brucei parasites. The T. brucei aquaglyceroporin isoform 2, TbAQP2, has been linked to the uptake of pentamidine. Negative membrane potentials and transmembrane pH gradients were suggested to promote transport of the dicationic antitrypano...
