Hydroxychloroquine sulfate

SKU: orb1224083

Description

Hydroxychloroquine Sulfate is an antimalarial agent used for the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune, inflammatory and dermatologic conditions. Also acts as an inhibitor of autophagy and toll-like receptor (TLR) 7/9.(In Vitro):Hydroxychloroquine sulfate is a synthetic antimalarial drug derived from 4-aminoquinoline; it has been used for several decades for the treatment of some rheumatic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Five micromolar Hydroxychloroquine sulfate or chloroquine also has no measurable effect on intracellular pH, although these concentrations can inhibit TLR9 or 7 signaling induced by DNA or RNA ligands.(In Vivo):Hydroxychloroquine sulfate is prescribed for the treatment of lupus, and both Hydroxychloroquine sulfate and its analog chloroquine inhibit TLR7 and 9 signaling.
