hydroxychloroquine and Alloxan Diabetes

hydroxychloroquine has been researched along with Alloxan Diabetes in 6 studies

Hydroxychloroquine: A chemotherapeutic agent that acts against erythrocytic forms of malarial parasites. Hydroxychloroquine appears to concentrate in food vacuoles of affected protozoa. It inhibits plasmodial heme polymerase. (From Gilman et al., Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 9th ed, p970)
hydroxychloroquine : An aminoquinoline that is chloroquine in which one of the N-ethyl groups is hydroxylated at position 2. An antimalarial with properties similar to chloroquine that acts against erythrocytic forms of malarial parasites, it is mainly used as the sulfate salt for the treatment of lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and light-sensitive skin eruptions.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is a widely used antimalarial and anti-inflammatory drug and its hyperglycemia-controlling effect in diabetic patients is also under investigation."3.01Treating diabetes with combination of phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors and hydroxychloroquine-a possible prevention strategy for COVID-19? ( Das, A; Koka, S; Kukreja, RC; Samidurai, A; Wang, R; Xi, L, 2023)
" In conclusion, the CQ dosage and regimen used to treat COVID-19 induced adverse effects in diabetic rats, suggesting the need to reevaluate the effective dose of CQ in humans."1.72Safety considerations of chloroquine in the treatment of patients with diabetes and COVID-19. ( Gao, X; Guo, D; Ji, H; Jiang, S; Jing, X; Peng, L; Qiu, Y; Wang, J; Wu, W; Zheng, Y, 2022)
"The pharmacokinetic studies were carried out following administration of 40 mg/kg of racemic HCQ to diabetic, insulin-treated diabetic, adjuvant arthritic and control rats."1.30Effect of experimental diabetes mellitus and arthritis on the pharmacokinetics of hydroxychloroquine enantiomers in rats. ( Emami, J; Jamali, F; Pasutto, FM, 1998)
"To study the effect of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) on glucose and insulin homeostasis, healthy rats were dosed with 160 mg x kg (-1) x day(-1) of HCQ orally, and streptozocin-induced diabetic rats received 80, 120, and 160 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1) of HCQ, while controls received normal saline."1.30Insulin-sparing effect of hydroxychloroquine in diabetic rats is concentration dependent. ( Emami, J; Gerstein, HC; Jamali, F; Pasutto, FM, 1999)
