quinacrine and Disease Exacerbation

quinacrine has been researched along with Disease Exacerbation in 4 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Quinacrine: An acridine derivative formerly widely used as an antimalarial but superseded by chloroquine in recent years.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.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Osseous metaplasia has recently been described in several cases of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis, sometimes in association with unusual clinical features such as painful hyperkeratotic spicules, palpable bony masses, and disease regression."1.36Osseous metaplasia late in the course of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis. ( Bayliss, SJ; Berk, DR; Lu, D; Miller, A; Scarlett, D; Wippold, FJ, 2010)
"Quinacrine has been reported as an antiprion agent and proposed as an immediately applicable treatment for Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD)."1.32Compassionate use of quinacrine in Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease fails to show significant effects.
