chloroquine and Sickle Cell Trait

chloroquine has been researched along with Sickle Cell Trait in 5 studies

Chloroquine: The prototypical antimalarial agent with a mechanism that is not well understood. It has also been used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and in the systemic therapy of amebic liver abscesses.
chloroquine : An aminoquinoline that is quinoline which is substituted at position 4 by a [5-(diethylamino)pentan-2-yl]amino group at at position 7 by chlorine. It is used for the treatment of malaria, hepatic amoebiasis, lupus erythematosus, light-sensitive skin eruptions, and rheumatoid arthritis.

Sickle Cell Trait: The condition of being heterozygous for hemoglobin S.

"The hypothesis that chloroquine-induced pruritus (CIP) may be determined by certain genetic factors was tested by investigating the epidemiology of CIP with respect to certain genetic red cell markers namely, haemoglobin genotype, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency and the ABO blood groups."7.71Certain red cell genetic factors and prevalence of chloroquine-induced pruritus. ( Ademowo, OG; Sodeinde, O, 2002)
