quinacrine and Disease Models, Animal

quinacrine has been researched along with Disease Models, Animal in 33 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Quinacrine: An acridine derivative formerly widely used as an antimalarial but superseded by chloroquine in recent years.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.

Disease Models, Animal: Naturally-occurring or experimentally-induced animal diseases with pathological processes analogous to human diseases.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is an important chemotherapeutic agent for the systemic treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC), but its effectiveness against CRC is limited by increased 5-FU resistance caused by the hypoxic tumor microenvironment."7.91Quinacrine-Mediated Inhibition of Nrf2 Reverses Hypoxia-Induced 5-Fluorouracil Resistance in Colorectal Cancer. ( Kim, CW; Kim, HG; Lee, DH; Lee, JS; Oh, ET; Park, HJ, 2019)
"5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is an important chemotherapeutic agent for the systemic treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC), but its effectiveness against CRC is limited by increased 5-FU resistance caused by the hypoxic tumor microenvironment."3.91Quinacrine-Mediated Inhibition of Nrf2 Reverses Hypoxia-Induced 5-Fluorouracil Resistance in Colorectal Cancer. ( Kim, CW; Kim, HG; Lee, DH; Lee, JS; Oh, ET; Park, HJ, 2019)
" For this, extended subacute ovalbumin mice model of asthma was developed; these mice showed an increased expression of profibrotic mediators, subepithelial fibrosis, and goblet cell metaplasia along with airway inflammation, increased Th(2) cytokines, allergen-specific IgE, IgG(1), increased cytosolic PLA(2) (cPLA(2)), and airway hyperresponsiveness."3.75Mepacrine inhibits subepithelial fibrosis by reducing the expression of arginase and TGF-beta1 in an extended subacute mouse model of allergic asthma. ( Agrawal, A; Aich, J; Ghosh, B; Mabalirajan, U, 2009)
"Renal toxicity is a serious side effect that hinders the use of cisplatin, a commonly used and effective chemotherapeutic agent."1.62Quinacrine Ameliorates Cisplatin-Induced Renal Toxicity via Modulation of Sirtuin-1 Pathway. ( Abo El-Magd, NF; Ebrahim, HA; Eisa, NH; El-Sherbiny, M, 2021)
"Quinacrine was then administered to adult 5XFAD transgenic mice via weekly intravenous injections for 6 weeks, and we found a significant reduction of Aβ plaques and astrocytosis in their cortex and hippocampus."1.62Quinacrine directly dissociates amyloid plaques in the brain of 5XFAD transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease. ( Kim, HY; Kim, Y; Oh, HA; Park, IW; Park, S; Shin, J; Woo, DH; Yoon, S, 2021)
"Using the stasis model of venous thrombosis and resolution in mice, we found that genetic deficiency of p53 or pharmacologic inhibition by pifithrin impairs thrombus resolution and is associated with increased fibrosis and altered expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2."1.46Myeloid p53 regulates macrophage polarization and venous thrombus resolution by inflammatory vascular remodeling in mice. ( Antalis, TM; Hoofnagle, MH; Mukhopadhyay, S; Nguyen, KP; Sarkar, R, 2017)
"Quinacrine is an anti-malarial drug with versatile use in the treatment of diseases involving inflammatory response such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus erythematosus."1.43Repurposing the anti-malarial drug, quinacrine: new anti-colitis properties. ( Chaparala, A; Chumanevich, A; Chumanevich, AA; Hofseth, LJ; Nagarkatti, M; Nagarkatti, P; Witalison, EE, 2016)
"Quinacrine is a relatively non-toxic drug, once given almost exclusively for malaria."1.42Quinacrine for extremity melanoma in a mouse model of isolated limb perfusion (ILP). ( Blum, AB; Donahue, MJ; Fisher, DT; Haslinger, ML; Kim, M; Park, IY; Skitzki, JJ, 2015)
" However, animals dosed with human equivalent doses of quinacrine were not protected against respiratory spore challenge."1.33Evaluation of the protective effects of quinacrine against Bacillus anthracis Ames. ( Chatuev, BM; Chopra, AK; Comer, JE; McHenry, DJ; Noffsinger, DM; Peterson, JW; Weisbaum, DM, 2006)
"Quinacrine was demonstrated to penetrate rapidly into brain tissue, achieving concentrations up to 1500 ng/g, which is several-fold greater than that demonstrated to inhibit formation of PrPSc in cell culture."1.32Pharmacokinetics of quinacrine in the treatment of prion disease. ( Baldwin, M; Guglielmo, BJ; Huang, Y; Legname, G; Lessard, P; Lin, ET; Prusiner, SB; Ryou, C; Yung, L, 2004)
"Peritonitis has been produced in rabbits by the spreading of 5 ml of caecal contents throughout the peritoneal cavity."1.27A phospholipase inhibitor modifies the pulmonary damage associated with peritonitis in rabbits. ( Bennett, ED; Hynd, J; Moss, R; Parker-Williams, J; Tighe, D, 1987)
"In the Piebald mouse, animal model of congenital megacolon, the quinacrine positive plexus is thin in the distal narrowed segment and well developed in the large proximal zone."1.26[Colonic nerve network demonstrated by quinacrine]. ( Adnet, JJ; Arnaudies, J; Birembaut, P; Gaillard, D; Ploton, D; Visseaux-Coletto, B, 1982)
