Chloroquine analogues in drug discovery: new directions of uses, mechanisms of actions and toxic manifestations from malaria to multifarious diseases

TL;DR: This review is concerned with the lysosomotropic, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory mechanisms of chloroquine, hydroxychloroquines, quinacrine and related analogues, and the current evidence for both their beneficial effects and potential adverse manifestations in various diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

The past, present and future of anti-malarial medicines

TL;DR: The range of anti-malarial medicines developed over the years are reviewed, beginning with the discovery of quinine in the early 1800s, through to modern day ACT and the recently-approved tafenoquine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chloroquine against malaria, cancers and viral diseases.

TL;DR: The underlying mechanisms behind the antimalarial, anticancer and antiviral effects of CQ are reviewed and the clinical evidence for the use of C Q and hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) against COVID-19 is discussed.

The Development of Novel Compounds Against Malaria: Quinolines, Triazolpyridines, Pyrazolopyridines and Pyrazolopyrimidines

TL;DR: The importance of quinoline and non-quinoline derivatives in vitro with activity against the W2 chloroquine-resistant (CQR) Plasmodium falciparum clone strain and in vivo against Plas modium berghei-infected mouse model is demonstrated.

Development of a New Generation of 4-Aminoquinoline Antimalarial Compounds Using Predictive Pharmacokinetic and Toxicology Models

TL;DR: Two lead molecules, 18 and 4, with promising in vitro therapeutic efficacy, improved ADMET properties, low risk for drug-drug interactions, and desirable pharmacokinetic profiles are identified and are desirable candidates to pursue in future clinical trials.

In Vitro Activity of Ferroquine Is Independent of Polymorphisms in Transport Protein Genes Implicated in Quinoline Resistance in Plasmodium falciparum

TL;DR: The in vitro activity of ferroquine against 15 Plasmodium falciparum strains was assessed and compared with those of chloroquine, quinine (QN), monodesethylamodiaquine (MDAQ), and mefloquine (MQ).

Synthesis, Characterization, and Pharmacological Evaluation of Silicon-Containing Aminoquinoline Organometallic Complexes As Antiplasmodial, Antitumor, and Antimycobacterial Agents

TL;DR: Two silicon-containing analogues (1, 2) of chloroquine, modified in the lateral side chain with organosilicon moieties, were synthesized and further reacted with dinuclear half-sandwich transition metal precursors [Ru(Ar)(μ-Cl)Cl]2 as discussed by the authors.

Harnessing evolutionary fitness in Plasmodium falciparum for drug discovery and suppressing resistance

TL;DR: These findings indicate that pairing inhibitors that target the bulk wild-type population and the small, emerging resistant population can suppress the rise and spread of drug resistance.
