| ln Vitro |
In the human liver cancer HepG2 cell line, quinine diHClide (150 μM, 30 min) suppresses the growth and cytostatic effects of dengue virus [1]. In the human liver cancer HepG2 cell line, quinine diHClide (37.5-150 μM, 24 hours) dramatically lowers viral DENV RNA and protein levels in a dose-dependent manner [1].
In vitro, Quinine dihydrochloride inhibits WT mouse Slo3 (KCa5.1) channel currents with an IC50 of 169 μM. It exhibits antimalarial activity by binding to parasite DNA. The compound has antipyretic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory activities. Its potassium channel inhibitory and antimalarial activities have been characterized in various in vitro systems. |
| ln Vivo |
Quinine dihydrochloride has a certain inhibitory impact on skin cancer in Swiss albino mice when administered orally at a dose of 12 or 15 mg/kg once a week for 16 weeks [2]. The oral administration of quinine dihydrochloride (10 mg/kg, daily for 8 weeks) to adult male albino rats will result in a reduction in the activity of SOD, CAT, and GSH enzymes in their testicular tissue.
In vivo, Quinine dihydrochloride is an orally active antimalarial drug. It has tumor suppressing effects on skin cancer in Swiss albino mice at doses of 12 or 15 mg/kg orally every week for 16 weeks. The compound has antipyretic and analgesic properties and has been used in common cold preparations. It is also used to treat lupus and arthritis. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme assays for Quinine dihydrochloride involve measuring potassium channel inhibition. Potassium channel activity is assessed using patch-clamp electrophysiology in cells expressing Slo3 channels. The compound is added at varying concentrations, and IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves (IC50 = 169 μM). For antimalarial studies, Plasmodium cultures are used and parasite growth inhibition is measured.
