Description

Buparvaquone is a hydroxynaphthoquinone antiprotozoal agent related to parvaquone and atovaquone.

In Vitro

In 4-day proliferation assays, buparvaquone efficiently inhibits N. caninum tachyzoite replication(IC50=4.9 nM; IC100=100 nM)[1]. Buparvaquone is significantly selective against L. (L.) infantum chagasi intracellular amastigotes, with an IC50 value of 1.5 μM. Other cutaneous species are also susceptible to buparvaquone, with IC50 values in the range 1-4 μM[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Treatment of N. caninum infected mice with buparvaquone (100 mg/kg) either by intraperitoneal injection or gavage prevents neosporosis symptoms in 4 out of 6 mice in the intraperitoneally treated group, and in 6 out of 7 mice in the group receiving oral treatment[1]. Both a hydrous gel and water-in-oil emulsion of buparvaquone significantly reduce cutaneous parasite burden and lesion size, compared with the untreated control[3].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: 2.5 mg/mL (7.66 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

    This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.66 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Cell Assay
[1]

To study whether pretreatment of host cells prior to invasion had any effect on parasite proliferation, confluent HFF grown in 6-well plates are treated with 1 µM buparvaquone in medium for 1 h or 5 h, and controls are exposed to the corresponding amounts of DMSO. Subsequently, the drug-containing medium is removed and monolayers are ished 4 times with Hank's Balanced Salt Solution, and are infected with Nc-Liv tachyzoites in 5 mL medium without any drug or solvent. After 2 days, cells are collected with a cell scraper, centrifuged, ished once more in PBS, and the pellet is stored at −20 °C prior to quantification of N. caninum proliferation by N. caninum-specific real time PCR as outlined below[1].

Animal Administration
[1]

Mice: On day 0, all mice are infected by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of freshly purified N. caninum tachyzoites. After 48 h, mice receive BPQ (100 mg/kg) as suspension in corn oil either by i.p. injection of a volume of 100 µl or by oral application of 100 µl by gavage. The control groups obtained the corresponding amount of the solvent only, either i.p. or orally (see Table 2). The treatments are performed 5 times on a daily basis. If not indicated otherwise, mice are inspected twice daily for clinical signs (ruffled coat, apathy, hind limb paralysis) until day 21 post infection (p.i.), at which time they are euthanized[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
