Autophagy (lysosomal pathway), TLR7, TLR9, and heme polymerase in Plasmodium.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro antiplasmodial activity against chloroquine‑sensitive P. falciparum (3D7): IC50 = 15 nM (similar to chloroquine 12 nM). Inhibits heme polymerization with IC50 = 0.8 uM. Suppresses TLR9‑induced IL‑6 in HEK293 cells (IC50 = 1.2 uM). Inhibits autophagy (LC3‑II accumulation) with EC50 = 5 uM in HeLa cells.

| ln Vivo |
Chloroquine was intraperitoneally injected into wild-type and Huntington's disease (Q175/Q175)-infected mice. The amounts of chloroquine and its metabolites in the blood, brain, and muscle tissue were compared using LC-MS/MS. Four to twenty-four hours following the last dosage, brain tissue has lower (5–15M) but more stable chloroquine concentrations than blood or muscle. Within 24 hours following injection, levels of the active chloroquine metabolite desethylchloroquine dropped in muscle and blood, while within the same period, levels in the brain were both slightly elevated and lowered [3].
In P. berghei‑infected mice, desethyl chloroquine diphosphate (20 mg/kg i.p. daily for 4 days) reduces parasitemia by 99.5% on day 4, similar to chloroquine (25 mg/kg). In TLR7‑driven lupus mouse model, 50 mg/kg p.o. reduces anti‑dsDNA antibodies by 60% and proteinuria by 50%. |
| Enzyme Assay |
CYP metabolism assay: human liver microsomes (0.5 mg/mL) incubated with 10 uM chloroquine and NADPH at 37degC for 30 min; desethyl chloroquine quantified by LC‑MS/MS; used for metabolite ID. For heme polymerization: hemin (50 uM) + 100 uM drug in acetate buffer pH 5.2; incubated 24 h; spectrophotometry at 405 nm.
|
| Cell Assay |
Anti‑plasmodial cell assay: P. falciparum 3D7 culture (2% hematocrit, 1% parasitemia) in 96‑well plates; treated with desethyl chloroquine (0.1-1000 nM) for 48 h; [3H]hypoxanthine incorporation measured. Autophagy assay: HeLa cells treated with 5 uM for 24 h; Western blot for LC3‑II and p62.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Mouse P. berghei malaria model: female BALB/c mice injected i.p. with 1×10⁶ infected RBCs; after 2 h, treated with desethyl chloroquine (20 mg/kg i.p. q.d. ×4); tail blood smears on day 4; parasitemia counted. Also survival monitored.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Human oral chloroquine (600 mg) yields Cmax of desethyl metabolite ~0.5 uM at 6 h, t1/2 ~120 h (much longer than parent). Accumulates in tissues (liver, spleen) due to lysosomotropism. Volume of distribution ~200 L. Primarily excreted renally.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Similar to chloroquine but less toxic? In rats, single i.p. LD50 120 mg/kg (chloroquine 90 mg/kg). Chronic high dose causes retinopathy (dose‑dependent), neuromyopathy, and QT prolongation. Less potent cardiotoxicity than parent in guinea pig heart model.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.12 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.12 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*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.
