Description of Cycloguanil (hydrochloride)

Cycloguanil is an inhibitor of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR)[1].

Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) is an enzyme that involved in reducing dihydrofolic acid to tetrahydrofolic acid. DHFR plays a critical role in regulating the amount of tetrahydrofolate in the cell, which are essential for purine and thymidylate synthesis important for cell proliferation and cell growth. DHFR also plays a central role in the synthesis of nucleic acid precursors and salvage of tetrahydrobiopterin from dihydrobiopterin [2].

Cycloguanil is the active metabolite of proguanil produced by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) [3]. Cycloguanil showed activity against P. falciparu. Cycloguanil inhibited the activity of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) with the Ki values of 0.3 and 1.5 nM for Plasmodium and human forms, respectively., Cycloguanil prevented the production of tetrahydrofolic acid, an essential coenzyme involved in DNA and RNA synthesis, by blocking DHFR activity.

Calculation results:

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL saline, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
