quinacrine and Arthritis, Rheumatoid

quinacrine has been researched along with Arthritis, Rheumatoid in 19 studies

Quinacrine: An acridine derivative formerly widely used as an antimalarial but superseded by chloroquine in recent years. It has also been used as an anthelmintic and in the treatment of giardiasis and malignant effusions. It is used in cell biological experiments as an inhibitor of phospholipase A2.
quinacrine : A member of the class of acridines that is acridine substituted by a chloro group at position 6, a methoxy group at position 2 and a [5-(diethylamino)pentan-2-yl]nitrilo group at position 9.

Arthritis, Rheumatoid: A chronic systemic disease, primarily of the joints, marked by inflammatory changes in the synovial membranes and articular structures, widespread fibrinoid degeneration of the collagen fibers in mesenchymal tissues, and by atrophy and rarefaction of bony structures. Etiology is unknown, but autoimmune mechanisms have been implicated.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Many of these reviews, while generally excellent, have propagated some apparent misconceptions by disregarding or de-emphasizing data suggesting that irreversible retinal toxicity due to antimalarials can be easily avoided by judicious daily dosage and regular ophthalmologic follow-up."2.36Antimalarials and ophthalmologic safety. ( Olansky, AJ, 1982)
"The drugs used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis are divided into two classes: a "first aid" and a "back up" group."1.27[Synthetic antimalarials in the therapy of rheumatoid arthritis: adverse effects and advantages]. ( Lanciani, P, 1985)
