Quinfamide (WIN-40014) is an orally active class of dichloroacetyl derivative with significant anti-intestinal protozoan, particularly mmoeba histolytica activity. Quinfamide exhibits antiamoebic activity under solvent-free conditions with an IC50 of 28.15 μg/mL in a suspension condition. Quinfamide particles are actively engulfed by the amoebas, then cells are affected, and finally, amoebas are killed and lysed, and this process directly relies on the physical intake of the drug particles. Quinfamide can be used in the research of tropical parasitic infections such as amoebiasis and helminthiasis.

Description

Quinfamide (WIN-40014) is an orally active class of dichloroacetyl derivative with significant anti-intestinal protozoan, particularly mmoeba histolytica activity. Quinfamide exhibits antiamoebic activity under solvent-free conditions with an IC50 of 28.15 μg/mL in a suspension condition. Quinfamide particles are actively engulfed by the amoebas, then cells are affected, and finally, amoebas are killed and lysed, and this process directly relies on the physical intake of the drug particles. Quinfamide can be used in the research of tropical parasitic infections such as amoebiasis and helminthiasis[1][2][3].

IC50 & Target

Amebae

 

In Vitro

Quinfamide inhibits propagation of E. histolytica in vitro at a concentration of 20 μg/mL[2].
Quinfamide (0-72 h) granules are actively engulfed by the amoeba, and subsequently the amoeba's trophozoite cells become round, lose their motility, undergo cell lysis, and the integrity of the cell membrane is lost[3].
Quinfamide has an IC50 value against pathogenic strain of Trichomonas vaginalis (strain GT-13) of 214.7 μg/mL[3].

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

In Vivo

Quinfamide (30 mg/kg, p.o., prepared as small pellets and mixed with feed, for 49 days) possesses a low anticoccidial efficacy, this is noticeably improved when prepared as pellets with Carbopol[1].
Quinfamide (p.o.) exhibits ED50 values against E. cricetid of 0.25 mg/kg/day (total dose 0.75 mg/kg) in multiple doses for 3 days and 0.9 mg/kg after a single dose[2].
Quinfamide (p.o.) protect hamsters from re-infection with E. cricetid and has no significant toxicity in rodents (10 g/kg, single dose), monkeys (500 mg/kg, for 37 days), dogs (2 g/kg, single dose) and rats (500 mg/kg, for 31 days)[2].

Animal Model: Coccidial infection induced by E. acervuline, E. maxima and E. tenella established in one-day old broiler chickens[1]
Dosage: 30 mg/kg alone or with 0.1% Carbopol
Administration: Oral administration (p.o.), prepared as small pellets and mixed with feed, for 49 days
Result: Increased the weight of the broiler chickens, reduced the amount of egg sacs excreted, and alleviated intestinal lesions but that the combined inhibition was more remarkable.

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.
