Antimalarial agent 25 is an orally active 1,4-naphthoquinones derivative with antimalarial activity. Antimalarial agent 25 shows cytotoxicity against P. falciparum. Antimalarial agent 25 inhibits P. burghei induced parasitemia in vivo[1]. | [in vivo]
Antimalarial agent 25 (compound 8) (30 mg/kg; po; once daily for 4 consecutive days) shows antimalarial activity in female albino swiss mice[1].
Antimalarial agent 25 (300 mg/kg; po; single dose) shows no significant pathological changes and histopathological damage in female mice[1]. | Animal Model: | Mice infected with Plasmodium berghei ANKA[1] | | Dosage: | 30 mg/kg | | Administration: | Oral administration; for 4 consecutive days | | Result: | Partly reduced P. berghei infection.
Parasitemia decreased by 33% on the seventh day (post-treatment).
