Description

Febrifugine is a natural product alkaloid isolated from the plant Dichroa febrifuga. It has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries to treat malaria. Research on febrifugine has been driven by its potent antimalarial activity, particularly against Plasmodium falciparum, a major cause of malaria. Febrifugine exhibits its antimalarial activity by inhibiting the parasite's growth and development. The compound's complex structure presents challenges for synthesis, but various synthetic routes have been developed, including those involving enzymatic reactions. Febrifugine's importance stems from its potential as a lead compound for the development of new antimalarial drugs. However, its clinical use has been limited due to toxicity issues. Ongoing research focuses on modifying febrifugine's structure to enhance its efficacy and safety profile.'

However, its usefulness is transient often because of rapid development of tolerance. Its antiepileptic effect may be due to its inhibitory effect on brain carbonic anhydrase, which leads to an increased transneuronal chloride gradient, increased chloride current, and increased inhibition.

Malaria is endemic in parts of Asia, Africa, Central and South America, Oceania, and certain Caribbean islands. It is characterized by extreme exhaustion associated with paroxysms of high FEVER; SWEATING; shaking CHILLS; and ANEMIA. Malaria in ANIMALS is caused by other species of plasmodia.		03.79110
