Solution-phase synthesis and evaluation of a library of 31 sulfonamides as inhibitors of a chloroquine-resistant strain of Plasmodium falciparum are described. The most potent compound displayed an activity 100-fold better than chloroquine. Experiments using a fluorescent sulfonamide derivative suggest that their site of action inside the parasite is different to that of chloroquine. 相似文献

Synthesis and bioevaluation of new diaryl ether hybridized quinoline derivatives as antiplasmodial, antibacterial and antifungal agents is reported. It was encouraging to discover that several compounds displayed 2–3 folds better efficacy than chloroquine in chloroquine-resistant K1 strain of Plasmodium falciparum. Further, a few members of the library displayed good antibacterial efficacy against gram positive strains of bacteria but none of the compounds displayed any significant antifungal activity. 相似文献

A series of imidazole-dioxolane compounds, which we hypothesize should bind to heme and thus interfere with heme catabolism in the parasite, were assayed for inhibitory activity in Plasmodium falciparum cultures and the results were compared to those obtained with Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. The majority of the compounds displayed a similar ratio of inhibitory activity in the two culture systems; however, a number of the compounds tested showed promising anti-Plasmodium activity. The mechanism of action of these compounds remains unclear, however their inability to act synergistically with chloroquine suggests that, if they are inhibiting heme detoxification, they do so in a manner that does not complement the action of chloroquine. 相似文献

In this investigation, we describe a new approach to chiral synthesis of chloroquine and its analogues. All tested compounds displayed potent activity against chloroquine sensitive as well as chloroquine resistant strains of Plasmodium falciparum in vitro and Plasmodium yoelii in vivo. Compounds S-13b, S-13c, S-13d and S-13i displayed excellent in vitro antimalarial activity with an IC50 value of 56.82, 60.41, 21.82 and 7.94 nM, respectively, in the case of resistant strain. Furthermore, compounds S-13a, S-13c and S-13d showed in vivo suppression of 100% parasitaemia on day 4 in the mouse model against Plasmodium yoelii when administered orally. These results underscore the application of synthetic methodology and need for further lead optimization. 相似文献

A significant intersection between antimalarial and antiprion activity is well established for certain compound classes, specifically for polycyclic antimalarial agents bearing basic nitrogen-containing sidechains (e.g., chloroquine, quinacrine, mefloquine). Screening a recently reported set of antiprion compounds with such sidechains showed these 2,4-diarylthiazole based structures also possess significant antimalarial activity. Of particular note, all but one of the compounds displayed activity against a chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium falciparum strain, identifying them as interesting leads for further development in this context. In addition, three new members of the series showed superior antiprion activity compared to the earlier-reported compounds. 相似文献

A series of short chain 4-aminoquinoline-imidazole derivatives have been synthesized in one pot two step multicomponent reaction using van leusen standard protocol. The diethylamine function of chloroquine is replaced by substituted imidazole derivatives containing tertiary terminal nitrogen. All the synthesized compounds were screened against the chloroquine sensitive (3D7) and chloroquine resistant (K1) strains of Plasmodium falciparum. Some of the compounds (6, 8, 9 and 17) in the series exhibited comparable activity to CQ against K1 strain of P. falciparum. All the compounds displayed resistance factor between 0.09 and 4.57 as against 51 for CQ. Further, these analogues were found to form a strong complex with hematin and inhibit the β-hematin formation, therefore these compounds act via heme polymerization target. 相似文献

Synthesis and evaluation of the activity of a new family of 1,4-bis(3-aminopropyl)piperazine derivatives against a chloroquine-resistant strain of Plasmodium falciparum, and as inhibitors of beta-hematin formation, are described. The highest antimalarial activities were obtained for compounds displaying the highest predicted vacuolar accumulation ratios and the best potencies as inhibitors of beta-hematin formation. The most potent compound displayed an activity 3-fold better than chloroquine for a comparable selectivity index upon MRC-5 cells. Therefore, in this series, the replacement of the 7-chloroquinoline group can constitute a strong rationale for further investigation. 相似文献

Protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) are believed to be implicated in the parasite growth, maturation and differentiation functions. Protein tyrosine kinase activity was found to be distributed in all the stages of P. falciparum parasite maturation. Membrane bound PTK activity was found to be increased during maturation process (ring stage to trophozoite stage) in chloroquine sensitive strains. In vivo conversion of the schizont stage to ring stage via release of merozoites was associated with a decrease in PTK activity. Chloroquine inhibited the membrane bound PTK activity in a dose dependent manner (IC50 = 45 microM). Kinetic studies show that chloroquine is a competitive inhibitor of PTK with respect to peptide substrate and noncompetitive with respect to ATP indicating that chloroquine inhibits PTK activity by binding with protein substrate binding site. The results suggest that maturation of malaria parasite is related to PTK and inhibition of this activity by chloroquine could provide a hypothesis to explain the mechanism of action of chloroquine. 相似文献

A series of mono- and di-substituted analogues of isocryptolepine have been synthesized and evaluated for in vitro antimalarial activity against chloroquine sensitive (3D7) and resistant (W2mef) Plasmodium falciparum and for cytotoxicity (3T3 cells). Di-halogenated compounds were the most potent derivatives and 8-bromo-2-chloroisocryptolepine displayed the highest selectivity index (106; the ratio of cytotoxicity (IC(50)=9005 nM) to antimalarial activity (IC(50)=85 nM)). Our evaluation of novel isocryptolepine compounds has demonstrated that di-halogenated derivatives are promising antimalarial lead compounds. 相似文献

272 patients on long-term chloroquine therapy were assessed with respect to ocular toxicity and clinical benefit. A simple scheme for rendering patients ophthalmologically safe is presented, employing the recording of central fields to red targets. Under this it was possible to diagnose a state of premaculopathy, which was reversible on stopping treatment. The incidence of premaculopathy was 41% in 143 patients who otherwise displayed no abnormality of the fundus oculi and who had received a mean total dose of 410 g. of chloroquine phosphate or the hydroxychloroquine sulphate equivalent. Under this joint ophthalmological and rheumatological supervision it was considered that the minor side-effects that may be caused by chloroquine are outweighed by its therapeutic value. 相似文献

The antiplasmodial activities of sixty norcantharidin analogs were tested in vitro against a chloroquine sensitive (D6, Sierra Leone) and chloroquine resistant (W2) strains of Plasmodium falciparum. Forty analogs returned IC(50) values <500 μM against at least one of the P. falciparum strains examined. The ring open compound 24 ((1S,4R)-3-(allylcarbamoyl)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylic acid) is the most active aliphatic analog (D6 IC(50)=3.0±0.0 and W2 IC(50)=3.0±0.8 μM) with a 20-fold enhancement relative to norcantharidin. Surprisingly, seven norcantharimides also displayed good antiplasmodial activity with the most potent, 5 returning D6=8.9±0.9 and W2 IC(50)=12.5±2.2 μM, representing a fivefold enhancement over norcantharidin. 相似文献

We report on chloroquine, a 4-amino-quinoline, as an effective inhibitor of the replication of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) in vitro. Chloroquine is a clinically approved drug effective against malaria. We tested chloroquine phosphate for its antiviral potential against SARS-CoV-induced cytopathicity in Vero E6 cell culture. Results indicate that the IC50 of chloroquine for antiviral activity (8.8 +/- 1.2 microM) was significantly lower than its cytostatic activity; CC50 (261.3 +/- 14.5 microM), yielding a selectivity index of 30. The IC50 of chloroquine for inhibition of SARS-CoV in vitro approximates the plasma concentrations of chloroquine reached during treatment of acute malaria. Addition of chloroquine to infected cultures could be delayed for up to 5h postinfection, without an important drop in antiviral activity. Chloroquine, an old antimalarial drug, may be considered for immediate use in the prevention and treatment of SARS-CoV infections. 相似文献

The effects of chloroquine and mannose 6-hosphate on the secretion and uptake of the lysosomal enzyme, beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase (EC 3.2.1.30), by human fibroblasts have been compared. There was a reciprocal relationship between intracellular depletion, and extracellular accumulation, of enzyme at chloroquine concentrations ranging from 5 micrometers to 100 micrometers. A loss of enzyme activity from the system (intra- plus extracellular activity) with increasing concentrations of chloroquine was due to inhibition of the beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase. At a concentration of 50 micrometers, chloroquine elicited a three fold increase in the extracellular accumulation of beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase in 24 h whereas the addition of 5 micrometers mannose 6-phosphate (a competitive inhibitor of receptor-mediated uptake) resulted in only a 13% increase. Uptake of beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase by enzyme-deficient fibroblasts was completely inhibited by 5 micrometers mannose 6-phosphate. In the presence of chloroquine there was also no uptake of enzyme, however ther was a marked decrease in the residual activity of the cells. The results suggest that the effect of chloroquine on fibroblasts is to stimulate secretion rather than to inhibit uptake as previously reported. The isoenzyme pattern of the beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase from normal culture medium was compared with that accumulating in the medium following exposure of the cells to 50 micrometers chloroquine. In the presence of chloroquine, there was an increase in the A isoenzyme, however the activity was eluted in a broad peak which probably represents several closely related forms of the enzyme. There was an almost total loss of the A isoenzyme of beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase from fibroblasts cultured in the presence of chloroquine. A small peak of activity eluting at a similar position to the secreted, As, isoenzyme was present in extracts of chloroquine-treated fibroblasts, suggesting that the As isoenzyme is formed and/or stored at a site distinct from the intracellular isoenzyme. 相似文献

Human glutamate dehydrogenase exists in hGDH1 (housekeeping isozyme) and in hGDH2 (nerve-specific isozyme), which differ markedly in their allosteric regulation. In the nervous system, GDH is enriched in astrocytes and is important for recycling glutamate, a major excitatory neurotransmitter during neurotransmission. Chloroquine has been known to be a potent inhibitor of house-keeping GDH1 in permeabilized liver and kidney-cortex of rabbit. However, the effects of chloroquine on nerve-specific GDH2 have not been reported yet. In the present study, we have investigated the effects of chloroquine on hGDH2 at various conditions and showed that chloroquine could inhibit the activity of hGDH2 at dose-dependent manner. Studies of the chloroquine inhibition on enzyme activity revealed that hGDH2 was relatively less sensitive to chloroquine inhibition than house-keeping hGDH1. Incubation of hGDH2 was uncompetitive with respect of NADH and non-competitive with respect of 2-oxoglutarate. The inhibitory effect of chloroquine on hGDH2 was abolished, although in part, by the presence of ADP and L-leucine, whereas GTP did not change the sensitivity to chloroquine inhibition. Our results show a possibility that chloroquine may be used in regulating GDH activity and subsequently glutamate concentration in the central nervous system. 相似文献

Quorum sensing inhibitors (QSIs) that specifically interfere with bacterial cell-to-cell communication are considered as an alternative approach to conventional antibacterial therapy. In our study, a set of twenty-six fumardiamides with a quinoline head-group were evaluated as potential QSIs. Two strains of Gram-negative Chromobacterium violaceum (violacein-producing strain ATCC31532 and violacein-negative, mini-Tn5 mutant derivative CV026) were used as QS reporters for testing anti-QS and bactericidal activity of various quinoline fumardiamides. The initial screening of eighteen fumardiamides with primaquine, mefloquine and chloroquine scaffolds identified chloroquine derivatives as the most promising QSIs. Tail-group optimization of chloroquine fumardiamides led to the most active compounds 27, 29 and 30 bearing aminoethyl or piperidine moieties. At 400 µM concentration, these compounds inhibited the QS of C. violaceum strains in a manner similar to quercetin (the model QSI), while at the 40 µM concentration their inhibitory effect was twice less than that of quercetin. As none of the compounds displayed a bactericidal effect and that the QS inhibition was specific to the CV026 strain, our findings indicate that the structurally optimized chloroquine derivatives could function as quorum quenching (QQ) agents with a potential to block the signaling without entering the cell. In conclusion, our finding provides an important step toward the further design of agents targeting cell-to-cell communication. 相似文献

We report the synthesis and in vitro antimalarial activity of several new 4-amino- and 4-alkoxy-7-chloroquinolines carrying a linear dibasic side chain. Many of these chloroquine analogues have submicromolar antimalarial activity versus HB3 (chloroquine sensitive) and Dd2 (chloroquine resistant strain of Plasmodium falciparum) and low resistance indices were obtained in most cases. Importantly, compounds 11–15 and 24 proved to be more potent against Dd2 than chloroquine. Branching of the side chain structure proved detrimental to the activity against the CQR strain. 相似文献

Kinetics of chloroquine and daunorubicin (DNR) uptake by cultured L cells (subline LSM) has been studied. With their constant concentrations in the medium the uptake of both chloroquine and DNR was characterized as a two phase process. Within 1.5-2 hours, these cells accumulated as much as 90 per cent of the total chloroquine and DNR amounts taken up during the whole incubation period. The segregation and accumulation of these substances took place in lysosomes. Chloroquine and DNR concentrations within lysosomes exceed those in the medium by 1100 and 5000 times, respectively. The chloroquine and DNR accumulation in lysosomes inhibited activities of some lysosomal hydrolases tested: cathepsins B and D, N-acetyl-beta, D-glucosaminidase and acid phosphatase. Unlike, the activity of acid lipase was not affected by chloroquine, and was sufficiently stimulated (by 55%) by DNR. The mechanism of inhibition of lysosomal enzymes by chloroquine and DNR is not yet known, although some suggestions are made. Possible consequences of lysosomal activity inhibition for cell metabolism are discussed in addition to a possible role of lysosomotropic agents as regulators of lysosomal functional activity. 相似文献

The efficacy of chloroquine, once the drug of choice in the fight against Plasmodium falciparum, is now severely limited due to widespread resistance. Amodiaquine is one of the most potent antimalarial 4-aminoquinolines known and remains effective against chloroquine-resistant parasites, but toxicity issues linked to a quinone-imine metabolite limit its clinical use. In search of new compounds able to retain the antimalarial activity of amodiaquine while circumventing quinone-imine metabolite toxicity, we have synthesized five 4-aminoquinolines that feature rings lacking hydroxyl groups in the side chain of the molecules and are thus incapable of generating toxic quinone-imines. The new compounds displayed high in vitro potency (low nanomolar IC50), markedly superior to chloroquine and comparable to amodiaquine, against chloroquine-sensitive and chloroquine-resistant strains of P. falciparum, accompanied by low toxicity to L6 rat fibroblasts and MRC5 human lung cells, and metabolic stability comparable or higher than that of amodiaquine. Computational studies indicate a unique mode of binding of compound 4 to heme through the HOMO located on a biphenyl moeity, which may partly explain the high antiplasmodial activity observed for this compound. 相似文献

Chloroquine is an established antimalarial agent that has been recently tested in clinical trials for its anticancer activity. The favorable effect of chloroquine appears to be due to its ability to sensitize cancerous cells to chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and induce apoptosis. The present study investigated the interaction of zinc ions with chloroquine in a human ovarian cancer cell line (A2780). Chloroquine enhanced zinc uptake by A2780 cells in a concentration-dependent manner, as assayed using a fluorescent zinc probe. This enhancement was attenuated by TPEN, a high affinity metal-binding compound, indicating the specificity of the zinc uptake. Furthermore, addition of copper or iron ions had no effect on chloroquine-induced zinc uptake. Fluorescent microscopic examination of intracellular zinc distribution demonstrated that free zinc ions are more concentrated in the lysosomes after addition of chloroquine, which is consistent with previous reports showing that chloroquine inhibits lysosome function. The combination of chloroquine with zinc enhanced chloroquine''s cytotoxicity and induced apoptosis in A2780 cells. Thus chloroquine is a zinc ionophore, a property that may contribute to chloroquine''s anticancer activity. 相似文献

A novel series of 6-(2-chloroquinolin-3-yl)-4-substituted-phenyl-6H-1,3-oxazin-2-amines were synthesized and evaluated for in vitro antimalarial efficacy against chloroquine sensitive (MRC-02) as well as chloroquine resistant (RKL9) strains of Plasmodium falciparum. The activity tested was at nanomolar concentration. β-Hematin formation inhibition activity (BHIA(50)) of oxazines were determined and correlated with antimalarial activity. A reasonably good correlation (r?=?0.49 and 0.51, respectively) was observed between antimalarial activity (IC(50)) and BHIA(50). This suggests that antimalarial mode of action of these compounds seems to be similar to that of chloroquine and involves the inhibition of hemozoin formation. Some of the compounds were showing better antimalarial activity than chloroquine against resistant strain of P. falciparum and were also found to be active in the in vivo experiment. 相似文献
