| Targets |
Buparvaquone targets the mitochondrial electron transport chain in protozoan parasites. As a hydroxynaphthoquinone, it inhibits the cytochrome bc1 complex (complex III), disrupting the electron transport chain and ATP production. This leads to the death of the parasite. Its mechanism is similar to that of atovaquone.

| ln Vitro |
In a 4-day proliferation study, buprovalone successfully reduced the reproduction of Neospora caninum tachyzoites (IC50=4.9 nM; IC100=100 nM) [1]. Buparvaquone has a notable degree of L selectivity. Intracellular amastigotes of (L.) infantum with an IC50 of 1.5 μM. Bupavalquinone also exhibits sensitivity in other skin species, with IC50 values ranging from 1-4 μM [2].
In vitro, Buparvaquone demonstrates potent antiprotozoal activity. It is effective against Theileria species, which cause theileriosis in livestock. Its activity is measured by its ability to inhibit the growth of the parasite in cell culture. Its IC50 values are characteristic of a potent antiprotozoal agent. It is more potent than its parent compound, Parvaquone. |
| ln Vivo |
mice with a N infection. Bupavalone (100 mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally via injection or gavage to caninum patients. The intraperitoneal therapy group shielded four out of the six mice from neosporiasis signs. Six of the seven mice in the group did not develop neosporiasis symptoms after receiving oral medication. 1]. When compared to untreated controls, bupavalone hydrogels and water-in-oil emulsions dramatically decreased cutaneous parasite burden and lesion size [3].
In vivo, Buparvaquone is used in veterinary medicine for the treatment of theileriosis, a tick-borne disease in cattle and other livestock. It is administered by injection and is effective in clearing the parasite from the blood and tissues. Its efficacy has been demonstrated in clinical studies in animals. It is not approved for human use. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro antiprotozoal assay for Buparvaquone involves testing its activity against Theileria-infected cell cultures. The compound is serially diluted and added to the culture medium. After incubation, the number of infected cells or the parasite load is determined, and the IC50 is calculated from the dose-response curve.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell culture studies for Buparvaquone utilize Theileria-infected bovine cells. Cells are treated with the compound, and cell viability is assessed. The parasite load is measured by qPCR or by microscopy. The compound's effect on the host cell and the parasite can be distinguished. Its mechanism of action on the mitochondrial electron transport chain can be studied.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments for Buparvaquone are performed in cattle or other livestock infected with Theileria. The compound is administered by injection, and the animals are monitored for clinical signs of theileriosis. The parasite load in the blood is measured by qPCR or by microscopy. The efficacy of the treatment is assessed by the reduction in parasite load and the improvement in clinical signs.

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Buparvaquone has a molecular formula of C21H26O3 and a molecular weight of 326.43 g/mol. It is a solid compound that is soluble in organic solvents like DMSO. It is typically stored as a powder at room temperature for long-term stability. Its stability is maintained under recommended storage conditions. It is a yellow crystalline powder.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological data for Buparvaquone indicate that it is generally safe for use in veterinary medicine at therapeutic doses. However, it can cause local reactions at the injection site. As a hydroxynaphthoquinone, it has the potential for toxicity, and its use is restricted to veterinary applications. It is not approved for human use.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
