quinacrine

Quinacrine dihydrochloride (Mepacrine dihydrochloride) is the dihydrochloride salt of the 9-aminoacridine derivative quinacrine with potential antineoplastic and antiparasitic activities.

Quinacrine dihydrochloride hydrate possesses antiprotozoal and anti-infective properties and exhibits multi-target biological activity; it inhibits voltage-gated sodium channels (which are involved in the generation and conduction of action potentials) and aldehyde oxidase activity, and acts as a riboflavin antagonist to interfere with riboflavin-related protein interactions; Furthermore, quinacrine has been used in in vitro models to study the regulation of prion misfolding processes.

Quinacrine methanesulfonate is a bioactive chemical.

Quinacrine analog 34 is a potent autophagy inhibitor (EC₅₀ = 0.5 μM, LD₅₀ = 27 μM) that upregulates the protein levels of the autophagy marker LC3-II and induces lysosomal deacidification.

Quinacrine acetate is a histamine N-methyltransferase inhibitor.

Mepacrine (Erion) is an acridine derivative formerly widely used as an antimalarial. It is used in cell biological experiments as an inhibitor of phospholipase A2.

Quinacrine Dihydrochloride Dihydrate is an orally available antimalarial agent capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier. It exhibits anticancer activity by inhibiting WNT/TCF and topoisomerase, inducing autophagy and apoptosis, and activating p53. Quinacrine is an acridine dye derivative used for DNA and RNA staining in fixed cells (Ex/Em=436/525 nm).

d-Atabrine hydrochloride is the active enantiomer of quinacrine and has anti-pr virus activity.

l-Atabrine dihydrochloride displays antiprion activity. l-Atabrine dihydrochloride is a less active enantiomer of quinacrine.

DQ661 is a potent inhibitor of PPT1 and a dimeric quinacrine autophagy (autophagy) inhibitor. It effectively suppresses the activity of mTORC1 and reduces protein expression levels of pS6K T389 and pS6 S240-244. Additionally, DQ661 exhibits anticancer properties.
