Quinine hemisulfate hydrate
Based on 7 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Quinine hemisulfate hydrate is an orally active alkaloid extracted from cinchona bark, possessing various biological activities including antimalarial, antidengue virus (DENV), and anticancer properties. Quinine hemisulfate hydrate acts as a potassium channel inhibitor that suppresses the +100 mV current of MT mSlo3 (KCa5.1) channels induced by voltage pulses, with an IC50 value of 169 μM. Quinine hemisulfate hydrate serves as a fluorescence standard reference substance with fluorescence spectrum calibration and validation activity.

Quinine sulfate dihydrate serves as a fluorescence standard reference material[1].
Quinine (150 μM, 30 min) sulfate dihydrate inhibits the proliferation of dengue virus (DENV) and the cytostatic effect in the human hepatoma HepG2 cell line[2].
Quinine (37.5-150 μM, 24 hours) sulfate dihydrate significantly reduces viral DENV RNA and protein levels in a dose-dependent manner in the human hepatoma HepG2 cell line[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Quinine (administered via gavage at 10 mg/kg once daily for 8 weeks) sulfate dihydrate reduces the activities of SOD, CAT and GSH, enzymes of the antioxidant defense system, in testicular tissues of adult male albino rats[4].
