General tips | We do not recommend long-term storage for the solution, please use it up soon. |
In vitro experiment [1]: | |
Parasites |
B. gibsoni |
Preparation method |
The solubility of this compound in DMSO is >17.03mg/mL. General tips for obtaining a higher concentration: Please warm the tube at 37 °C for 10 minutes and/or shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while. Stock solution can be stored below - 20 °C for several months. |
Reacting condition |
0 ~ 3.2 μM |
Applications |
The ΣFICs against WT B. gibsoni were 0.93, 0.82, 0.83 and 0.96 for Atovaquone and Proguanil at a ratio of 4:1, 3:2, 2:3 and 1:4, respectively. The ΣFICs against Atovaquone-resistant B. gibsoni were 0.88, 0.60, 0.77 and 0.88 at each ratio. The results implied that Atovaquone synergized the effects of Proguanil on WT and Atovaquone-resistant B. gibsoni. |
Animal experiment [1]: | |
Animal models |
Dogs infected with B. gibsoni |
Dosage form |
17 ~ 25 mg/kg; p.o. |
Applications |
In B. gibsoni-infected dogs, the combination of Atovaquone and Proguanil alleviated parasitemia. However, all dogs showed relapse of parasitic infection. In addition, some side effects were also observed. Self-limiting vomiting occurred in 2 dogs and hyperphosphatasia occurred in another dog. Mild increases in the alanine aminotransferase levels were confirmed in 2 dogs. |
Other notes |
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal. |
