The absence of treatment or the emerging resistance to current therapies necessitates the development of novel and effective drugs. This thesis investigates the design, synthesis, and evaluation of new anti-orthoflaviviral and antimalarial agents, respectively peptidomimetic lipopeptides and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines (THIP). The anti-orthoflaviviral lipopeptides, derived from the optimization of geminoid compounds initially developed as transfection agents, demonstrated inhibition of the orthoflaviviral protease NS2B-NS3 and DENV infection in vitro. Iterative design, sequence, and C-terminal modifications led to significant advancements in understanding the structure-activity relationships (SARs) of these compounds, with selected derivatives showing promising antiviral activity and good cell viability which prompted in vivo studies. The THIP scaffold, discovered through high-throughput screening, underwent extensive optimization, resulting in derivatives with potent antimalarial activity against various stages of the Plasmodium life cycle. Systematic synthesis and biological evaluation provided valuable SAR insights, guiding future development. The thesis highlights the progression of selected compounds to pre-clinical stages, demonstrating their potential as therapeutic agents for DENV and malaria, ultimately contributing to the broader scientific effort to combat tropical diseases.","Radboud University, 27 september 2024","Promotor : Rutjes, F.P.J.T.
