Hydroxychloroquine Sulfate
Hydroxychloroquine Sulfate is a synthetic quinine derivative commonly used as an antimalarial drug [1]. It is also useful in managing systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and other diseases. Also acts as an inhibitor of?autophagy?and?toll-like receptor 7/9(TLR7/9) [1-3].?
Five micromolar Hydroxychloroquine sulfate or chloroquine also has no measurable effect on intracellular pH, although these concentrations can inhibit TLR9 or 7 signaling induced by DNA or RNA ligands [4].?
Hydroxychloroquine sulfate is prescribed for the treatment of lupus, and both Hydroxychloroquine sulfate and its analog chloroquine inhibit TLR7 and 9 signaling [4].?

Cell experiment:[1] | |
Cell lines |
Human renal cell cancer (RCC) cell lines, ACHN, Caki-1 and 769-P |
Reaction Conditions |
0 ~ 125 μM hydroxychloroquine for 48 h incubation |
Applications |
Hydroxychloroquine treatment inhibited growth of all three lines in a dose dependent manner. At the highest concentration of hydroxychloroquine, cell growth inhibition was similar between all three lines, ranging between 43 and 56%. |
Animal experiment:[2] | |
Animal models |
MRL/lpr mice |
Dosage form |
60 mg/kg Administered orally five times a week |
Applications |
Hydroxychloroquine was used as a control, exhibiting no impact on anti-dsDNA antibodies, whereas cytoxan caused a statistically significant suppression in anti-nuclear antibody titers. Hydroxychloroquine, as an inhibitor of toll-like receptor 7/9 (TLR7/9), could be a useful tool to study the mechanism and efficacy of other TLR7/9 inhibitors in vivo. |
