cycloguanil

Cycloguanil is an antimalarial.

Cycloguanil hydrochloride (Chloroguanide Triazine) is an active metabolite of the antimalarial compound proguanil. It acts as an inhibitor of dihydrofolate reductase (Kis: 0.3 and 1.5 nM for Plasmodium and human forms, respectively).

Cycloguanil D6 Nitrate is a dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor, deuterium-labeled Cycloguanil.

Cycloguanil nitrate is a dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor and is a metabolite of the antimalarial drug proguanil.

Cycloguanil D6 is a dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor, deuterium-labeled Cycloguanil.

Proguanil (Chloroguanide) is a prophylactic antimalarial drug that acts primarily through its active metabolite, Cycloguanil, which inhibits the dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) enzyme of Plasmodium falciparum, preventing the synthesis of purines and pyrimidines and inhibiting the growth and reproduction of the parasite.

Proguanil hydrochloride (Chloroquanil) is a biguanide compound which metabolizes in the body to form cycloguanil, an anti-malaria agent.Upon hydrolysis, Proguanil hydrochloride is converted to its active cyclic triazine metabolite, cycloguanil, by a cytochrome P450 dependent reaction. Cycloguanil selectively inhibits the bifunctional dihydrofolate reductase-thymidylate synthase of plasmodium parasite, thereby disrupting deoxythymidylate synthesis and ultimately blocking DNA and protein synthesis in the parasite.

Proguanil-d6 HCl is a deuterated compound of Proguanil HCl. Proguanil HCl has a CAS number of 637-32-1. Proguanil Hydrochloride is a biguanide compound which metabolizes in the body to form cycloguanil, an anti-malaria agent.Upon hydrolysis, proguanil is converted to its active cyclic triazine metabolite, cycloguanil, by a cytochrome P450 dependent reaction. Cycloguanil selectively inhibits the bifunctional dihydrofolate reductase-thymidylate synthase of plasmodium parasite, thereby disrupting deoxythymidylate synthesis and ultimately blocking DNA and protein synthesis in the parasite.
